Spoiler:

Robot SCANDAL
Theme：RINA

We had a press conference from morning today.

We're collaborating with robots!
It's one project of GRAND FRONT OSAKA being developed in Osaka, robot creator Takahashi Tomotaka×SCANDAL.
It's a project that will be dispatched from Osaka to the world.

The robot's name is ROBI-kun.
It matches up to music and can dance,
It can house-sit,
It can control the TV.
And, it can even communicate with humans.
A robot that has a heart and facial expressions.

Takahashi-san says that in 15 years, a life where a single robot will be even more compact with a boost in performance will arrive.
It's looking like we'll be able to make new enjoyments, emotions, and such. It's awesome.

And, for the collaboration this time there are 3 big things we'll be doing!
We'll be making a song from scratch with ROBI!
And he'll even participate in that video!
And we'll do a live at GRAND FRONT!
We're already steadily advancing♩

I really think that Osaka will become an even greater city.
Though there are many people that head to Tokyo to fulfill their dreams, Osaka too will definitely become an area that's filled with chances.

I was born in Osaka, raised in Nara, and the band was formed in Osaka. This really is a place that will be forever special.
I want this town to forever be an exciting one♩

There are many 「interesting」 things.
Though I strongly have that image in mind,
The truth is that there are many stylish and cool parts as well, and there are various appeals that I want the entire world to know of.
If we're able to collaborate through our musicー. We'll do our best( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

Please look forward to it!

※Bonus

Of course, in Shin-Osaka,

Is this!

Too be honest those kinds of robots are creepy to me. Robot SCANDAL - 2013-04-03 (RINA) 56458

While the development of robot technology is definitely impressive, IMO the obsession of certain Japanese people with human-robots are surely getting out of hand. Robot SCANDAL - 2013-04-03 (RINA) 654914

Well... this is interesting... Robots and SCANDAL... Never thought that they would be grouped together in a sentence lol

I'm curious now; how they would make a song with ROBI-kun. Well collaborating on this is a major step for SCANDAL anyway. Looking forward to the outcome of the project~

Who'd ever thought... Onion Wahaha

Thanks for the translation!

Hmm I'm not a huge fan of robots myself. Especially not the kind that they want to have live with you and help you cook/clean all that. I have a fear that they'll turn on you and kill you LOL

But anything with SCANDAL is great. So I'll look forward to this too Robot SCANDAL - 2013-04-03 (RINA) 976811

I honestly hope they know what they're doing. Not every collaboration is a good idea. Sometimes bands can get themselves into things that are ill-advised.

I hope the band is all really on board with this.

I also hope I'm proven wrong and that it turns out to be great.

I swear Japan is going to step up and catch everyone off guard if they build robots like in Code Geass or in Gundam haha.

Though the premise is interesting o_O
