Wow. The thing that has me stumped is that some parts of it were "high quality" in appearance or creativity, and other parts were like the doodlings of a 10-year old, in both appearance and concept. The only explanation I can imagine is that they must have held a public contest for "robo geisha" short videos, and they just spliced together a few dozen of the random entries from the general public.

I'd rent it though.

First time I heard the term "RoboGeisha" was in a bicycle framebuilders forum; someone was trying to describe the ridiculously overbuilt chainstays on a particular custom crit racing bike, and he said "those stays are robogeisha". The numerous ??? were answered by a link to that same video, whereafter even more ??? arose.

I'm thinking "That's So Robogeisha" should be the new "That's So Raven"

I decided a temporary avatar change was needed.

That was painful to watch but somehow I got all the way through. There's reason I stick to japan's animated exports and this is it

I think every year Japanese culture impresses me just a little more!
