The kind user sugerpotspottt has uploaded the first two episodes of Japanese TV series The Ancient Dogoo Girl, which is co-produced by Machine Girl and RoboGeisha director Noboru Iguchi, to his YouTube channel. Here’s a part from the second episode that will lead to massive brain melting on standard Western brains after a few minutes. Thank god that there are no subtitles available!

Here’s the second trailer for Noboru Iguchi and Yoshihiro Nishimura’s RoboGeisha. It’s not quite as long and crazy as the first one, but at least it features that crazy voice over again…

The guys from Twitch has been given the first trailer for RoboGeisha, the latest film from Machine Girl director Noboru Iguchi and Yoshihiro Nishimura (TGP, Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl) from the production company TO Entertainment.
Fortunately (at least for me as a not so big fan of mindless gore) it seems like the gore- and splatter level of the robotic geisha’s adventures has been lowered to make room for some more meshuga ideas (commented by the director himself), which is in my eyes the right way to go with this kind of fun flicks.

Regisseur Noboru Iguchi hat sich entschieden seiner Trashgranate Machine Girl neben dem The Drill Bra Sisters Projekt nun doch eine offzielle Fortsetzung zu gönnen. Hajirai Machine Girl (IMDb) soll der Kurzfilm laut den Twitchern heißen und von Yoshie (Noriko Kijima), der Freundin des Orginal Machine Girl handeln. Diese lässt sich ebenfalls ein Maschinengewehr implantieren, diesmal allerdings nicht als Ersatz für einen abgetrennten Arm, sondern direkt an ihren ehm Allerwertesten, wie man an den ersten paar what-the-fuck-packen-sich-die-Japaner-in-den-Kaffee?! Setbildern gut erkennen kann…
