The recently unveiled HRP-4C humanoid bishoujo android delighted the world’s media, but few questioned the wisdom of showing a “fashion model” robot off to the world in the nude.
It seems they should have; the addition of a maid outfit propels the robot from mechanical marionette to appealing moe servant.
Many raised concerns over the unit having fallen into the “uncanny valley”, the point at which the flaws in an artificial human become disquieting due to its imperfectly close resemblance to an actual human.
Japan can scotch this issue by way of maid moe it seems; in addition, selling these units in meido attire to compulsively consumptive otaku is likely to be child’s play.
The likely actual price of the robot has not been announced, but expect at least Akihabara robot maid cafés in short order. This also raises the question of whether a robot maid sex parlour would fall foul of anti-brothel laws…

I wonder if UNIDEF would let them get away with selling Loli Sex Robots?
Won't *somebody* think of the robots?
Er, that oughta be UNICEF...
Probably not, as the US pretty much already has that covered atm with the PROTECT Act.
Forgot to mention that most developed countries seem to think along extremely similar lines when speaking of loli/pedo materials.
Need "moe" of these....
Bugglegum Crisis comes to mind, eerily enough...
Ahh...indeed XD
Nice gynoid :) DO WANT

I wonder if she can be DIY-modified to become an assassin-bot?
The type with a katana disguised as a broom, then says, 「あーあ...またつまらぬものを切ってしまった・・・」after slicing her target in two.
Killer Mode Activate (O.o) *killed The Visitor with a Gatling Gun* Maid Said ( Say Hello To my Little Friend)
(^_^)V peace
No droid would kill better than experienced human. But imagine a money theyll make if they modify it to be a sex-droid, with fully functional wet cunt, sucking algorithms, and so on and so on. They could become richer than microsoft.
Ghost in the shell?
Or that one episode of Bubblegum Crisis OVA.
Actually, that gives you BOTH the sexariod AND the assassin, she sucks you dry, then sucks you dry...LOL
Tell that to the Terminators >D<

What do you know, the Judgement Day is coming. They should make few of this robots with a Schwarznegger face.
I'll be making EMP bombs just like in the matrix, just in case.....
