FILM :: Android Girl Nami (live-action from Japan)

[KOS-MOS]

I recently discovered DVD and VHS media from Japan due out on May 26th which features a character called Android Girl Nami. Below are links to a Japanese web store which is selling them, but due to the language barrier it is hard to get any information on these. Do they have different Nami stories? Does anyone know the plot or robotic content we might find here? Does anyone know where I can get these?

Rough translation. maybe 75% accurate +/- 25%
(might have it perfect)


"The action occurs in the 31st century,
where the female androids and the vampire-clones
battle, with the latest CGI, this is a Sci-Fi drama."

The second URL is just an image DVD of the actress
who plays the android girl.

I'd expect this might be available in the soft-porn
section of video stores in Japan on that day, unless
it actually IS just a drama... in which case it probably
will appear in no video stores.

Rented it.

A typical letdown. You only know Nami is an android
because she wears a silver outfit. No "gynoid action" at all.
Just a typical grumpy Tokyo girl pretending to act.

The story is about Nami being sent to capture a vampire woman
who went back in time to 2004 (from 3004) in return she will be set free
from prison... amazing that prisons in 3004 look exactly like prisons in
1940.. iron bars and cement with bad lighting.

Most of the story actually follows the vampire chick as she works at
a hostess bar and sucks victims dry... the title should've been "Vampire Girl - Yuki" Meanwhile android girl Nami walks around Tokyo in
a skimpy silver outfit and gets recruited to work in a club, the interview
involves Nami showing off at least 5 different bikinis while the sleazy manager oogles each time she returns from the changing room..
FF FF FF

Then out of the blue Nami becomes a TV reporter following the trail
of dead customers of the vampire girl... then she gets kidnapped..
and then the vampire girl rescues her.. they become friends, go back to the future, and then take control of then time portal and ride off
into the sunset together. Oh, sorry I didn't say "SPOILERS" guess it's too late!

The only good part was nice CGI opening titles of gynoid assembly,
but they were "very CGI" not realistic, but nice. Although not
better than anything we've seen by our fine volunteer artists....

This was surprisingly not even R-rated.. no sex or nudity,
just skimpy outfits. I expected that with the crappy acting
and production values.. maybe they would've tried to do some
comedy.. but basically this is pure MST3k material. Boring,
lots of over-long scenes as if they were really stretching to make
this thing 60 minutes.

Also, it looks like this will be a series, next month "Android Girl - Rina"
which looks like it will have maybe a completely different plot,
in which she walks around Tokyo with a radio headset saying
"Ryokai" (affirmative) in various outfits. Maybe she's reporting to
a superior or something (whereas Nami was totally rogue)
so maybe some gynoid action.. but it's just wishful thinking.
Also I think Rina's a bit better looking, IMHO.

But likely the second film will be the last, if there is no improvement.

It's good to have low expectations, but in this case I should've had NO expectations.

I've seen this, and it's interesting ... but I can't understand any of it, of course. Can you help translate this site too? Some of my specific questions are:
Exactly how many different videos are they selling?
What are the names?
How much do they cost and how do you order?
Do the videos, as the stills imply, include behind the scenes material of the girls without the masks?

Thanks!

Briefly, the "Mighty Lady" video is an independent film made by hobbyists.
There will be 2 videos featuring the charcters, including 3 gynoids, I think.
However, the Japanese version of the Gynoid Gallery has said that these people keep pushing back the release date (which was supposed to be last week).

There are 2 videos of 60 minutes, half of each is the story and the other
half is making/outtakes. There is also a photo CD.

This will probably never be available for rent in Japan, only for sale,
and I'm not planning on spending $100 to buy the videos, especially if they haven't actually been made yet. But if they actually get made, and the word of mouth is good here...

There are a few other videos out there like this, same case... it would be expensive and probably disappointing job to buy them.

If more happens, I'll post more.

That site worked. Is there any tentacle sex in the movie?

[Hanssen69]

Hanssen...what the f**k? Those links are 4 YEARS OLD! What do you expect?

I didn't know that. How would I know those were 4 years old?

Just look at the date of the posting. ASFR sites (as any sex related sites) don't last that long.
