She's electric: Japanese robot bar tempts customers with giant, scantily clad dancing robots - controlled by REAL women



Perhaps in Tokyo it's not quite as alarming to see a flatbed truck with two gigantic robotic women driving through traffic - but as the vehicle wound its way through Shinjuku yesterday, it was advertising a very special restaurant.

The 'Robot Restaurant' offers 'cabaret dances' from giant robots - looking like plastic women, but with robotic lower halves.

The £83 million restaurant will let customers operate the 'fem-bots' - but staff will also 'steer' the performers as they dance for visitors.

The robots operated by real women dressed in military and other outfits will perform 'cabaret' dances for its customers.

The robots are themed after the character Valkyrie in the game Soul Calibur.

The restaurant is located near the heart of Kabuchiko in Shinjuku .

A flat fee of 3000 Yen - £25 - allows entry to the robot show and a drink.

Sushi is also served - although local reviewers say that it's difficult to ignore the hour-long 'show'.

Not only are there dancing robots, there are drummers, tanks, and fighter aircraft.

The robot bar is advertised with a truck with two of its performers - and a man dressed (vaguely) as Boba Fett.



' The portions served are rather small and you’ll probably forget about it once the neon extravaganza is underway,' said Japan Today.

'Truly the main reason to visit Robot Restaurant is the performance which goes on twice a night from Monday to Saturday.'
