They’re pneumatic in all the right places.

Giant fembots have set up shop in Tokyo and they’re drawing both Japanese businessmen and otaku geeks in droves.

Robot Restaurant recently opened in Kabukicho, one of the world’s largest tenderloin areas, with a gimmick that combines giant robots with sexy gals.

The establishment is selling out its cheap dinner shows featuring scantily clad ladies riding around on 10-foot-tall female humanoids, also scantily clad.

From the waist up, the droids may evoke some of the silicone-enhanced girls from local hostesses clubs, and indeed they have actuators under those bikini tops.

Their arms, heads, and faces also move, but they’re not too far from the Uncanny Valley of creepiness if you ask me.
