Maid Taxi Offers Otaku Paradise On Wheels

Picture_1

You're a big geek going to Tokyo for the first time. Why not make the most of it by hiring a Maid Taxi to take you around? These cabs come equipped with PS3s, a deck of cards, and a sexy Japanese girl in a maid outfit to pamper and please you. Rides start at 1200 yen, and for an extra 200, you can play competitive games with your ridemate—if you beat her, you get to win some special items belonging to her! No, not her panties, you pervert. Or maybe. I'm not sure. She'll even go to dinner with you. This is a great, great service for the cosplay fetishist—or anybody else who wants a little bit more entertainment than the tacit white-gloved cab driver of times past.

Comments

Hmm. The whole muguchi grandad at the wheel is very much a thing of the past. Most taxi drivers I've had have been quite happy to talk both my ears off. Sometimes a limb.

Topics have included baseball (Chunichi Dragons FTW, apparently, although I tend to watch the Pacific League more); politics, and on one occasion, their worries about their daughter and her boyfriend. Not something you'd usually open up about.

Not that this doesn't look fun too :D
