    1.The skeletal structure with a high degree of freedom of the Bunraku puppets extracted from research was applied to the robot. As a result, the trajectory of mechanical movement was transformed into the trajectory of organic movement of natural objects. In addition, the robot, which is a machine, was made to be misunderstood an emotional creature. This robot was generally accepted by people. 2.From extracted formulas of sound and movement of Bunraku, this had the function of creating the beauty and sense of life in the movement of Bunraku puppets. 3.From these, the formulaic adaptation of Bunraku has the function of increasing the value of awkward puppet theater to the same level or higher than Kabuki and other human performances. This Bunraku formula is applied to robots by extending it from movement to sound and story. As a result, it is conceivable that the value of coexistence with robots could be increased to the same or greater value than coexistence with humans and pets.

    “Communication Robots” are expected to become a best partner for human. However the motion designs of the robots are mechanical, and the motion of the emotion is not friendly for human. To solve the problem of the motion design, we had extracted the emotions from the motion of the Japanese “Bunraku” puppeteer. Experiment methods are 2 ways for the same subjects. According to the result of subjective evaluation, an ex-pandable robot was better and higher affinity than the un-expandable robot for subjects. The expandable robot was highly praised in those evaluation points, emotional, lively, not mechanical, warm, and so on. Especially, the expandable body with tilt neck robot was higher evalua-tion than the only expandable robot. And according to the result of measuring brain wave of subjects, the expandable robot was the highest evaluation.From these results, we confirmed that most human prefers the exaggerated emotional motion of robot like Bunraku puppet.

    This paper describes the motion planning of Robots which communicates the robot's emotion to human.By using motion capture systems for Bunraku puppet's motion, this study picked up many motion patterns and the method for Robots. New findings are the end of the Bunraku puppet's body expands and contracts, especially when a Bunraku puppet's emotion is strong. The experiment results with a CG robot and a part of real robot designed from these findings, show the method clarify.
