Synopsis

The innocent Nagomi Wahira has always admired the cute girls serving at maid cafes. Hoping to fulfill her dream of becoming one, she moves to Akihabara to work at the maid cafe Ton Tokoton.

Nagomi's first day seems completely normal—until she has to run an "errand" at a rival maid cafe along with her fellow recruit, the mature Ranko Mannen. There, things quickly go south, and Nagomi soon gets her first taste of Akihabara's violent maid wars. As she watches Ranko calmly battle her way through a horde of gun- and knife-wielding maids, Nagomi realizes that maid cafes are drastically unlike what she had envisioned.

While struggling to reconcile her expectations with the harsh reality she finds herself in, Nagomi searches for the enjoyment she once saw in the lives of maids.

Background

The word "Meido" (冥途) in the title is a play on words, where the kanji means "underworld," and is pronounced the same as "maid" in Japanese pronunciation.

dawg who fucking cares if the anime has bad writing... an anime about maids murdering the shit out of each other is just a fun and enjoyable time. I think me and my friends were so bored one night i decided to say fuck it and watch this anime. Next thing we know... it quite literally became one of our favorite animes. Just because of the lack of structure don't mean you cant have fun with it. Its just a lot of shit happening like one of those sitcom shows like "Its always Sunny in Philadelphia". Fuck the people who took this anime to seriously, ...

Mixed Feelings

I wasn't planning om writing a review about this show in the first place, but then I decided to write one to help fellow users to make their decision whether or not they should watch it.

This show is a mess with 2 halves completely opposite to each other. Its like they are directed by two separate teams or director decided to switch the way show is going to be during the airing phase.

If you love chaos, nonsense in an anime or even just tired of an order in anime storyline, then you might like first half of the store. If you hate chaos, then second ...

This was so bad. First 5 eps were quite good. 8/10. Then it started going downhill. It got worse with every episode. Even then if it ended with episode 11 minus last w mins i would still give it a 6. But the last episode was just as bad and didn't redeem itself at all.

More info to let myanimelist publish my review -
The concept was unique I think? Atleast i haven't seen it before. The story wasn't though. And I didn't enjoy it precisely because of that. It would have been better if it didn't follow the cliche.
The art style was good.
One character was ...
