Sega's E.M.A. Robot Is a Brazen Minx, Has a Glamorous Body, Also Kind of a Slut
Posted by Jason Chen at 2:30 AM on June 13, 2008
We've seen midget-sized female robots coming out of Japan for a little while, but Sega Toys' Eternal, Maiden, Actualization (E.M.A.) robot seems like the most fully featured one yet. Or at least the sluttiest. The bot is 38 cm tall, has a "glamorous body," can hand out business cards, walk "like a lady," and even kiss you when you stick your face close enough to hers. Sega's marketing this toward adults (obviously) and will charge US$175 each. Not too bad, actually, considering a few months with this and the confidence builder DVD, you'll be able to know what it feels like to be a socially awkward Japanese teenager.

Update: Robert from Robots Rule tells us that it's just a localised version of the Femisapien, which we've covered before.

She is afflicted with Uni-boob syndrome. (If youre going to make a slutty robot give her 2 breasts and not one. Hell give her 6 if you want.)

Poor Wall-E, stuck with that weird floating pod-like robot, when he could have had this.

Girl robots have smaller brains.
It's science.

Coming soon from Microsoft: the E.M.O. robot. She doesn't eat enough, cuts herself, is convinced she's the first teenager to actually, like, really like feel emotions and generally mopes around.
Just don't ask about her red ring of death...

I guarantee you're going to see some pretty hideous mods of this in the next year. Poor thing.

@Kaiser-Machead: Plus, at that height, it's essentially cuddling your knees, which is the kind of thing one's little toddler niece or a puppy would do.
We must rise up and defend this Actualized Maiden's honor!

@MagnoliaBoy: They do, but theirs is more like a training video. They encourage it, but it must be done correctly.

@Jason Chen: Well that's sort of unfair. I mean, is kissing really that slutty? If it dryhumps your face when you approach it, then OK, there's no denying.

Any videos of this thing in action?
also: 38 cm...that's like 15 inches. Pretty tiny.

If it has a USB port on the rear end, I can buy that humping dog flash drive and just situate the sordid set next to the door of my apartment.

@DeadWriter: That really is a problem with sports bras, I am constantly reaching in and prying those puppies apart. I was unaware men had knowledge of that issue. (Men not notice anything about breasts - wtf was I thinking??!)

@Curves: what would anyone want with 6 boobs?
I've only got two hands and a mouth - the other three would just be surplus to requirements.

@Curves: It's the robot sports bra. If you have them hanging and you get a serious restraint system, the uni-boob is going to happen.

LindsayJoy's MBP is into S+M

@strider_mt2k:
Well, our brains may be smaller, but a la Einstein who had entire parts of his brain vacant, and certain parts larger, its not the size but how the area is used. For some gals, our smaller brains allow our neurons to fire more efficiently...like me (Oh im being so modest!).
Good god I know way to much anatomy, and not just neuroanatomy ;-)

That's really a WowWee Femisapien localized for the Japanese market. WowWee is the manufacturer and like @illpacin0 said above, will be releasing an American version very soon with a suggested retail price of $99.

@Curves: there's a solution to your problem about not enjoying the task of reaching in and separating the 'kids' and it can be found walking around you at pretty much any populated section of town - you'll recognize the solution by its inability to look you in the eyes (will be transfixed on your boobies) and by its eager desire to help you with that nasty little problem (hence 'solution' :^))
enjoy :^)
