Production company ABC Animation opened an official website for a television anime adaptation of Wakame Konbu's Saikin Yatotta Maid ga Ayashii (The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious) manga on Tuesday, revealing the main cast, staff, teaser visual (pictured), and teaser promo. The anime series is scheduled to air on ABC TV, TV Asahi, and its 24 affiliated channels on the ANiMAZiNG!!! programming block in July 2022.

Voice actresses Saori Hayami (Mairimashita! Iruma-kun) and Rie Takahashi (Tensai Ouji no Akaji Kokka Saisei Jutsu) are starring as Yuuri and Lilith, respectively.

Staff
Chief Director, Series Composition: Mirai Minato (Sunohara-sou no Kanrinin-san director)
Director: Misuzu Hoshino (Ousama Game The Animation assistant director)
Assistant Director: Yuushi Ibe (Meikyuu Black Company)
Character Design: Machi Yoshino (Shijou Saikyou no Daimaou, Murabito A ni Tensei suru chief animation director)
Music: Kouji Fujimoto (Sus4 Inc.) (Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai!), Osamu Sasaki (Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai!)
Studio: Silver Link., Blade

Konbu original posted the slice of life romantic comedy manga on his Twitter and Pixiv in October 2019. Monthly Gangan Joker began serializing the title in January 2020. Square Enix published the fifth volume on February 22.

Yen Press licensed the manga in English last January and shipped the second volume on January 25. The third volume is planned for a June 28 release.

Synopsis
The beautiful maid Lilith has recently been hired to care for the whims of her employer's son, Yuuri. However, Yurri's overzealous skepticism of her every action keeps him on edge as he suspects devious mischief being plotted behind his back. Despite his paranoia, Lilith grows fond of Yuuri and often teases him as a way to further their bonding.

Saikin Yatotta Maid ga Ayashii revolves around the relationship between the cautious Yuuri and his wonderfully charming maid in this day-to-day oddball romantic comedy. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Not really. Because the shota MC here is a chad. Choco maid always tries to tease the MC but always gets wrecked.

This is good news actually, this and Shikimori-san already have anime adaptations, and how best to teach people how garbage the manga of both of these are, than with a mainstream anime format.

Bring more superficial manga into anime Japan, so people can see how they don't work.

Pretty much all I know about this series is that the manga has pretty good art, so why does the PV look so damn flat and cheap?

I'll at least give it a go, but the already-weak production values and such a short-notice announcement really don't fill me with optimism.

Isn't this exactly the same sort of shit that was announced a day or two ago, just with a maid and-that-makes-it-different-apparently? Worthless. This medium's always been starved of ideas, but now it's just comical.
Well I for one already loved Lain.

It's pretty much the same team as the Jahy-sama anime with a few changes. Also, Silver Link and the chief director have another anime to work on this Summer. So, at best, expect the same quality as Jahy-sama. (mentioned Jahy-sama because its the same mangaka as this manga)

That’s quick!

Shinigami Bocchan Kuro Maid obviously comes to mind. I fairly enjoyed that, and this seems like it should make for a good watch too.

Didn’t expect to see Hayami-san to be playing a MC but the real take-away of the show for me is Takahashi-san playing such a role! Can’t wait.

I thought it might be cute. A maid bonding with a kid who is dealing with stuff. She helps him and he opens up....then I saw that it's a romantic comedy and that scares me a bit since the ML is a child.
