人類の皆様こにゃにゃちは！ROBOT55（ロボット・ゴー・ゴー）です！
世間的には景気も良くなって、かつ「今、ウェブ動画がキテいるっ！」という事で雨後の筍の如く動画制作会社が次から次へと登場しております。
そこでよく見るのが「競合他社よりXX%割安！」とか「￥XX,000〜承ります」的な文言。しかし実際はとりあえずお見積もりをしてもらい、結果思っていたより全然コストがかかるって事、よくありますよね。
その点ROBOT55は動画制作会社にしてはかなりレアな明朗会計！とりあえず7万円（+ 税）で30秒ビデオが作れてしまうのです。 Continue Reading…
One day late and far more than several hundred dollars short, it’s time for this week’s Top 3 Videos. The Top 3 Indies Artist’s videos for the week of June 16, 2015.
And once again, it’s Ladies Nite! The ladies will do the rockin’. Everyone gets in free!
First up are the two sisters who we introduced to you several weeks ago. As the story goes, when the older sister was 9, she pushed a drum kit into her then 6-year-old sister’s bedroom and proclaimed, “We’re starting a punk band.” Ten years later, today, they are known as Dog Party. They’ve been getting heavy airplay on my radio show: What the Funday on InterFM. (Please come “Like” or FB page! Please!)
#3) Dog Party – What Do You Know? – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K-sFa9P31s
Next up is a 3 girl band from Washington D.C. that also has been getting heavy airplay on my radio show: Ex Hex!
#2) Ex Hex – Don’t Wanna Lose https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=39&v=QSXZe1C6kw8
And at this week’s #1 is a band that needs no introduction to our countdown. They just finished a tour of the UK and the USA and we’re featured on our Ninja Slayer from Animation set program, “the TV Show” (ザ・TVショウ） that I create, write and produce along with my crazy friends Ken Nishikawa and Motoyoshi Tai for Niconico Douga.
Taffy are happening! Need more proof? This is from their new CD “Darkle” and this track is remixed by Brian Jonestown Massacre! Way cool!
#1) taffy – Young Tines Brian Jonestown Massacre Remix https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oh0okGvUE8g
Today’s freebie is, yes, yet again another band that’s been getting regular spins on What the Funday. It’s History of Apple Pie! The History of Apple Pie are an English rock band from London. They released their debut album Out of View on 28 January 2013, which went in at number 8 in the UK Indie Breakers Chart, and number 2 in the UK Record Store Chart.

There’s lots of video companies that promise to make videos for less or at 30% ~ 50% “less than the competition.” But what does that mean? Is it like the 30% off sales at clothes stores that, when you look at the price tags, you see isn’t isn’t really a sale at all?
Then, frankly speaking, they have all sorts of hidden costs and wind up not saving you money at all.
We at Robot55 will make your 30 second video for ¥70,000 (plus tax) and there are no hidden costs.
Here is also research data why your online advertising video should never be longer than 60 seconds and the optimum time is 30 seconds. Please refer to: Business and Social Media Videos? Keep it 30 Seconds! 60 Seconds at Most! (If that link doesn’t work, copy and paste this link into your browser): robot55.jp/blog/business-and-social-media-videos-keep-it-30-seconds-60-seconds-at-most/
Oh, and Twitter only handles videos 30 seconds or under, you if you want more people watching your video, why make it any longer?
Here are two examples of what we do for ¥70,000:
This is a bar in Shinjuku named Albatross. The ¥70,000 includes everything you see in this video (subtitles, cards, everything):
This is a restaurant in Fuchu:
These videos feature your or your spokesperson (under our professional direction), original music, and TV commercial quality. And, when we make it for you, it’s yours forever. No rules on when or where and for how long you can use the video.
If you want a 60 second version, that is only ¥80,000 (plus tax). Heck, we’ll even make both a 30 second and 60 second video for you for ¥100,000 (plus tax).
By the way, there’s an English language video boom coming to Japan. We have professional native English speakers and script writers too. You’ll need those in order to make a quality video that you’ll be proud of and won’t embarrass you later on when you find out the English is wrong in your video.
We have the basic video product as you see above for ¥70,000. If you wish to add extras, like a foreign announcer, Korean or Chinese subtitles, etc. Of course those are extra. But we have an upfront price list that we will gladly send you upon request. Everything is on the table.
Other companies can play with words, we make things easy for you and better for the people you want to reach and advertise to. I am confident that, after 30 years experience in TV, radio and film, you will not find a better or more honest deal than Robot55.

We’re back for the weekend version of the Top 3 Indies Videos for May 11, 2015. I want to say thanks to all the artists who have been submitting videos to me for review. Much appreciation. And for you readers, thanks too! I hope you dig finding new artists and bands as much as I do!
First up today at #3 are a band from Auckland, New Zealand who took off to Jolly Old London England the first chance they got. They are an Alternative rock trio, Adam, Dave and Joel. Their name is the Popstrangers and they are at #3.
#3) Popstrangers – Heaven – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQs6rGE_1cc
At #2 are those two sisters that seem to be catching fire. Their names are Gwendolyn and Lucy and they are better known as the punk band, Dog Party. This is their newest single!
#2) Dog Party – Peanut Butter Dream – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhg9N-HPKGY
Finally, at this week’s #1 is a punk band from Los Angeles that has been a favorite of mine for quite a while. They beeen on my countdowns before, but this is their first time on the Top 3 Videos. Wikipedia writes:
“FIDLAR is a skate punk/garage punk band from Los Angeles California… The band’s name is an acronym for ‘Fuck It Dog, Life’s a Risk’, a skate mantra gleaned from singer Zac Carper’s former roommates. Originally, FIDLAR went under the name ‘Fuck The Clock’, as referenced in their song ‘Cheap Beer’. Three years after recording their first songs they stepped on stage together with The Black Lips and went on tour with The Hives. In 2012, FIDLAR were named one of Stereogum’s ’40 Best New Bands of 2012′.”
I think you’ll dig this video. It’s got parodies of all sorts of famous videos and pop/rock stars. The Devo “Jocko Homo” parody at about 1:05 into the video floored me! I certainly DID NOT expect that!
#1) FIDLAR – 40oz. On Repeat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJy8VgB83OQ
And finally, as I always like to do, I’d like to introduce you to some of Japan’s unsung heroes. Today is a Rockabilly instrumental trio from Tokyo named Bobby’s Bar. This band rocks and performs at some of Tokyo’s coolest underground dives. I’ve seen them live several times and am always impressed by them.
Today’s Freebie: Bobby’s Bar – Weirdo Jungle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CurIxDKKBJQ
Well, that’s it for this weekend edition. See you next time!

Time once again for Gaijin Gourmet. Today’s episode is the definitive episode for people on a budget in Tokyo who want to eat healthy and safe food and love noodles – and draft beer for super cheap (read on!)
Today’s post is about what I think is the best soba restaurant chain in Tokyo. It is a Soba restaurant chain that is all over Tokyo and, in my expert opinion, blows away the competition when it comes to price, quality, taste and cleanliness; Yude Taro （ゆで太郎）. Yude Taro has, hands down, the best inexpensive and delicious noodles.
There are other chains that have a similar menu as Yude Taro and might be ¥10 ~ ¥30 cheaper ($0.10 ~ $0.30 USD) per dish, but they can’t touch the taste and food quality. Here I am specifically talking about the big soba chains in Tokyo: Fuji Soba and Yoshi Soba, etc., .. Folks, Yude Taro beats them all hands down.
Yude Taro Near Yoyogi JR Station
Here is the Yude Taro near Yoyogi station that I go to often. But, you can just look for this blue logo:
ゆで太郎ロゴ
Yude Taro logo
What does “Yude Taro” mean? Well, Taro is the most common boy’s name in Japan. “Yude” means “boiled.” So, “Yude Taro” means something like “Boiled John” or David or Mike….
Here’s their menu that I screen captured from their webpage:
As you can see, most bowls of soba items on the menu are under ¥500 (about $4 USD). If you want a little more, the highest priced set on the entire menu is a fried pork cutlet on rice along with a bowl of soba (top left hand corner photo) at ¥650 (about $5.42 USD). Really, I’ve eaten 1000 times at these stand up soba shops over these last three decades. Yude Taro is the best.
Meal Tickets – With photos!
And you can’t read the menu? It doesn’t really matter as you can see the pictures on the meal ticket machine at every shop.
Yude Taro displays the menu
There’s tens of thousands of these stand-up soba shops in Tokyo. They all have a glass case in front showing the main menu; but just look for the one with the blue logo. Usually, these places are in front of the big train stations and you can find a few competing chains right by each other.
Inside of Yude Taro
The Yude Taro I go to has a very large eating area and even seating enough for about 14 people. Don’t even bother going there between 12 noon to 1:00 pm or so. This particular Yude Taro can seat 14, but during the lunch time rush, I’ve been in there when there were more than 25 people eating and another 20 people standing in line. It’s OK, though, because most of the time, you can be in and out of a Yude Taro in 10 minutes so it’s a great deal for the person on the go and on a budget.
Clean Kitchen at Yude Taro
The noodles are best at all the chains here at Yude Taro because they make the noodles on the premises and then boil. Most of the other chains open a plastic pack with noodles and heat them up. As you know, there’s no way a packaged refrigerated item can beat the taste of a freshly cooked one.
This is medium sized soba with a softly boiled egg. ¥470 (about $3.91)… And, as you know, this is Japan so there is no tipping.
I eat the medium soba, ¥420 (about $3.50) with the fried veggies ¥100 (about $0.83) and grated radish ¥100 (about $0.83). I get a full stomach and the total damages are about 15 minutes at lunch and about $5.16 (USD). What a GREAT deal!
BUT WAIT! WHAT’S THIS???? DRAFT BEER FOR ¥220!???? That’s right! Yude Taro is running a summer 2015 campaign and is offering draft Sapporo Black Label draft beer for ¥220 (about $1.83 USD) a glass? That’s cheaper per drink than buying a can of beer at the convenience store! AMAZING.
Most cheaper drinking establishments charge twice that price for a draft beer!
¥220 Yen beer campaign over summer!? Wow!
Yude Taro wins the soba wars. Just look for the blue logo I have shown at the top of this article. Yude Taro is so good that I can honestly say that, if I really had to, I could eat there three meals a days. It’s that good.

We’re back for the weekend version of the Top 3 Videos for May 5, 2015. The Top 3 Indies artists videos for the first full weekend of June! Hope you dig finding new artists and bands as much as I do!
First up today are three boys who are in a Mod, Punk and Rock unit from Oldham in Manchester England. They’ve been making a name for themselves for doing awesome covers of classic punk bands like the Jam.
#3) 5ft Fez – Watch Me Fall – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzF2D5jg_MQ
Next up is a band that we just introduced to you in last week’s Top 3 Videos. The Downtown Boys. This is a radical punk band with a political message!
#2) Downtown Boys – Wave Of History – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T23wfhddpYY
This episode’s #1 is a four-piece alternative rock band from North London named Wolf Alice who is coming to perform in Japan at Summer Sonic 2015!
#1) Wolf Alice – Giant Peach – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6vEE3Plk48
Today’s Freebie is one of my most favorite Japanese Rock Bands; the 50 Kaitenz. I guess that translates into English as “The 50 Rotations.” These guys are great musicians and they also are funny as hell. Definitely one of Japan’s most excellent bands!
SPOTLIGHT ARTIST：The 50 Kaitenz – We Are The Kids – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtrhRuKwO1I

Do a Google Search for “Top 3 Videos” or “Top New Artists Videos” and you’ll see Robot55 on page one (just click this: http://bit.ly/1Jg2OS6)! blowing away MTV, Billboard Magazine, Billboard, Niconico Douga and all the rest.

Let’s make this into the coolest weekly Indies music chart on the entire internet!
And without further ado…. Today’s is the Girl’s Nite Out! All bands with female vocals! And why not? I love bands that have the ladies up front.
First, up we have two sisters from Sacramento California named Dog Party. It seems that when older sister Gwendolyn Giles was 9, she pushed a drum kit into her then 6-year-old sister Lucy’s room and said, “We’re starting a punk band.” And that’s how they got started. Hilarious and monstrously epic!
#3) Dog Party – Los Angeles (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIn0SCdCu5I)
Next up is Bully. Bully are a fired up and hot as hell rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. They have a rock goddess as lead vocal too!
#2) Bully – Brainfreeze (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMeL9WS02bw)
At this week’s #1 a group from London called, Kid Wave. The Guardian says: “Lea Emmery (lead singer) is picture-perfect for the role of sultry indie icon. Her long hair and fringe are offset by her rocker attire….It’s like Nico fronting the Field Mice, until drummer Serra Petale stirs up a crashing rhythm that sends guitarist Mattias Bhatt and bassist Harry Deacon into overdrive, and everything turns a bit Breeders.”

Looking for the best Salad Bar in Tokyo?
Well, I’ve introduced you to Big Boy, which offers an All-You-Can-Eat Salad bar for ¥590! (about $5 USD + 8% sales tax – no tips in Japan!). But my vegetarian friend, Ken says that, even though he likes Big Boy, if he goes on a date or takes his wife and kids out, they sometimes like Sizzler better.
Sizzler does have a much nicer Salad Bar with a much wider selection of fresh vegetables, but it is nearly 4 times the price of Big Boy; so it’s up to you!
I have to admit, though, when it is a special occasion or birthday, my son always says he wants to go to Sizzler… Even though he likes Big Boy too. The big sales point for him at Sizzler is the All-You-Can-Eat ice cream bar. The all you can eat Salad Bar, Soup Bar and Drink Bar at Sizzler is included in the price of the Salad Bar so that’s to be considered… Whereas, at Big Boy, they are all a separate charge.
And when you have a bunch of kids who want to eat several scoops of ice cream and chocolate (At Big Boy, one ice cream is about ¥300 (about $2.50 USD), then Sizzler does make sense if you are watching your pennies (and have kids – or dad – who eat too many sweets….)
Sizzler is about 6 minutes walk from the west exit of Sakura Shnmachi station on the Denen-Toshi line about 12 minutes from Shibuya heading towards Kanagawa. The restaurant is open from 11 am until 11 pm seven days a week. Here is their webpage (sorry Japanese only!)
The salad bar there is fantastic. The place is extremely clean and kept quite nice. The food is always fresh (I’ve been there dozens and dozens of times).
The all you can eat lunch bar includes bread, soup, drink and dessert bar. Lunch all you can eat is ¥1980 (about $16 USD + 8% sales tax – no tips in Japan!))
Dinner all you can eat is ¥2380 (about $19.18 + 8% sales tax – no tips in Japan!)
It’s the best salad bar deal I’ve ever seen in Tokyo. The food is good, I can relax, and the kids love the place. Everyone can find what they want at Sizzler in Setagaya.
Here, let me allow the photos to do the talking.
Outside view of building from 246 heading toward Shibuya. Beautiful newly reformed building. Parking for about 28 cars.
Quite spacious inside. This photo is about 1/4 of the entire restaurant so it seats a few hundred easily.
Large salad and fruits bar. Seriously, it’s huge and the size of a salad bar you’d see in the United States.
About 21 different vegetables and organic tofu seen here.
12 different mixed salads here…. Seafood salad, Waldorf salad, others…
As well as apples, white and pink grapefruit sliced, bananas, orange slices, pineapple, peaches, as well as diced onions, shredded lettuce, olives, jalapenos, mixed cheese and salsa which is for…
…the burritos you can make yourself. Taco meat and melted cheese for cheese nachos, gratin, spaghetti and curry rice are also available on the salad bar menu at no extra charge…
There is also soup bar that offers at least three types of soup daily
Of course, there are several styles of bread to choose from…
The drink bar offers everything you can think of….
And, of course, the kid’s favorite, the dessert bar. Shoe-cream, coffee cake, chocolate mousse, apple strudel, three flavors of soft cream “ice cream” and chocolate and all sort of goodies that the kids like to sprinkle on top. Beware parents! The chocolate fountain pictured is only out on weekends and weeknights after 6 pm!
The address is:
Setagaya Sizzler
Sakura Shinmachi 1 – 33 – 5
Setagaya-ku, Tokyo
Tel: 03 – 3705 – 4919
東京都世田谷桜新町１−３３−５
Take the west exit from Sakura Shinmachi station. Turn left down Sazai-san street. When you get to the police box turn right and go up the hill. It’s a one-way street. Follow the road up and turn to your left at the end. Sizzler will be on your left. Can’t miss it.
