Not understanding japanese I’m probably missimg something here, but if Wussboy there needs a POWERED ROBOT SUIT to lift TWENTY G__DAMN KILOS he needs to find a line of work other than farming.
…
Okay after reading the Pink Tentacle, I understand that Wussboy is just a grad student. Still, it,s just two bags of rice. I imagine any japanese farmers seeing this would just laugh.
Japan’s rural population is mostly elderly these days, so the aim of this project is to give old farmers super-powered robot arms to lift heavy objects.
