Kyukyu the Cleaning Robot

by Makoto Komori

Robot quarter is where all the robots live. The King Drink Shop is a vending machine strip where the robots go to relax. Kyukyu is a cleaning robot, quite an old model but utterly dedicated to keeping the strip spick and span. One day, heavy rain causes Kyukyu to malfunction and he is taken away by the recycling truck. Who will take care of the vending machines now? Gorgeously grainy illustrations give character and colour to this surprisingly sensitive world of robots.
