The Robot Restaurant in Tokyo – The Most Bizarre Show You Will Ever See
Visit the Robot Restaurant in Tokyo and witness a futuristic spectacle of mechanics, disco, and lasers. Like you’ve never seen before. Everyone knows that the Japanese are the masters of the robot revolution, leading the way for machines to aid the human race and the Robot Restaurant in Tokyo is a window into the future you will never forget. Tucked away underground in Kabukicho, in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district, are robots that blow that sensible notion out of the window, via the medium of entertainment. Exactly what this district is known for. Here, robots engage in mock battles with beautiful bikini-clad, drumming, and ninja fighting Japanese women riding neon tanks and giant fembots. Other robots roller-skate and dance while swathed in a rainbow of neon lights.
After picking up your tickets, or showing your pre-booked printed or mobile voucher, you are escorted a few doors down the street and into a building where the performance takes place. Here you wait in a bar area decked floor to ceiling in sparkle, neon, and mirrors, before walking down brightly decorated stairs that make you feel like you are in a giant funhouse or a blinding mind warp. This immediately gets everyone high in childlike excitement, and that’s not even half of it.
For one hour you are treated to a show that is out of this world. Broken down into four sections, the room is filled with a spectacle of LED screens with Anime style graphics, choreographed with flashing lights, lasers, and electronic effects. On the ground are performances that showcase traditional Japanese dance routines with a half-naked twist, which later progress into frolicking on neon tanks and airplanes and where ninjas and army girls fight with giant robots, pandas, and dinosaurs. A robot skates around Starlight Express 2035 style, as giant fembots grace the runway of the stage with their very womanly features, getting the men in the audience all hot under the collar.
