RoboGeisha: Seriously, Japan, WTF?
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
What else can one say, really? Having viewed hundreds of hours of indescribable weirdness spewed forth from The Land of the Rising Sun over a period of years, I may have finally reached my limit. I have been struck dumb with fantastical nonsense; my brain unhinged by ultra-violent absurdity. I have been laid low by RoboGeisha.
From Noboru Iguchi, director of Machine Girl, RoboGeisha is the story of a robot geisha who fights ninjas, other robot geishas and robot geisha ninjas. The trailer consists of a long list of various robot geisha attributes, read aloud by a man with a ball-gag in his mouth. We learn that RoboGeisha has swords in her arms and that she can shoot rockets. She can also transform into a car, which is especially helpful when fighting assassins with mini-guns instead of breasts. Also, tengu milk. I’ll offer no explanation for that last one, you’ll just have to see it for yourself.

[...] RoboGeisha. Everything that is awesome about Japan distilled into one movie. Probably NSFW video, though the text description is safe. [...]

Live And Let Die, My Robotic Droogs!
The music, that phallic mask, the anime visual come to life…. everything in those scenes is a re-imagining of a mix of assimilated pop culture, with a japanese veneer.

This trailer just kept getting worse.
Or possibly better. I’m not really sure.

Oh man. This is not surprising or shocking at all after Machine Girl. (She gets her arm fried in tempura batter, and then it gets replaced with a big machine gun. It’s extremely gory, and extremely B-movie.)
