Weekend Spotlight – Robots… Nuf Said

This week’s Weekend Spotlight is filled with robots. Robot girls and robots who love girls. Wait… That didn’t sound right. Well, you’ll see what I really mean after the break.

Hey everyone, red2 back in the weekend saddle. I didn’t get any info from JM as to what he wanted this week, so I’ll be stepping into his shoes once again. As promised we’ll start it off with a bang. A gorgeous cover by Kettaro that’s been long-awaited by the fans:

If you dial the wayback machine to… okay I don’t really remember when, there was this little song called SPiCa. It didn’t stay up on the countdown for long, but left enough of an impression to make this:

Now if you’ve recognized the style, I’m not surprised. Because that is essentially the prequel to what will most likely be our #1 for the week. With that said, I’ll leave you with ARiA, the sequel. Hope to see you all next week! Sarabada!
