Tokyu Plaza Shibuya, a commercial facility targeting adults, will open in December 2019 in Shibuya, a city that attracts many visitors from overseas. It will feature about 70 stores that will satisfy even the most sophisticated and playful adults. Let's take a look at four of the most popular stores.

1. "Pepper PARLOR," a futuristic café where robots serve customers

Pepper PARLOR is a fun café where robots provide "hospitality". When you enter the cafe, you are greeted by a line of humanoid robots called "Pepper". Their role is to help you order and pay the bill.

"Yes, please place your order using this tablet! Suddenly, Pepper, whose eyes I had met, spoke to me.

"How many people are there? The conversation began immediately. (The Pepper at the reception desk can also speak Chinese and English.

If you are unsure of what to order, Pepper will recognize your face, analyze your age, gender, and facial expression at the time, and make a recommendation. When you try it, you'll see "You look great! and recommended "Shiratama and raspberry grain bean paste butter". I feel more and more energetic!
Also, Pepper will sit with you, play with you, and even take your picture.

In addition to Pepper, "Servi", a food delivery and transportation robot, "NAO", a small bipedal robot in charge of dancing (on this day, he showed us a kung fu dance), and "Whiz", a sterilizing and cleaning robot, were also very active.

It looks like a toy package, doesn't it?

This is a unique Japanese culture that originally started as "toys that came with sweets" called "Shokugan", and now, in the style of BEAMS, it's sweets (gum) with "clothes" as an added bonus. Interesting!
