The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious
| Though the anime is in the genre of “romantic subtext” I can’t help but feel a bit bothered by their age gap. If the young master Yuuri were a bit older I think I wouldn’t mind but, not to overthink, the situations feel like child grooming (befriending and establishing an emotional connection with a minor, and sometimes the child's family, to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse.) The anime is cute, animations are great, scenarios are well made, we love a good old maid related anime with an adorable female lead. Everything is there for a masterpiece of an anime but the age gap? What’s your thoughts on their relationship and/or their age gap. |
| People who care about age gap in anime are really something else… If anything this just makes the show better |

| It's not Twitter, bruh. Most people here can discern reality from fiction. Especially since there is nothing sexual between the two and they seem more like siblings. |

You say you give high ratings but give barely any 10s and then you say that this would be a masterpiece if not for the age gap when even with the age gaps its an 8 at most. You should really take a step back a look at how you rate anime or change your profile bio After watching the second episode I took it down to a 6 might’ve not loaded yet, and it isn’t really your place to judge/criticize me and my opinions. All I said was the age gap bothered me a bit that doesn’t make it a bad anime you clearly haven’t read/turned a blind eye to the rest of my post praising the anime. |

What’s your thoughts on their relationship and/or their age gap. you're saying it as if its a bad thing, I mean its the female who is older and I hope the age gap is bigger than I think it is frankly, I would like it if Japan learned a bit from Korean Manhua how to make an acceptable age gap romance but this is fine too for as long as the girl is the older one, I mean we dude all wishes if we can be that young guy now. |

| We need to protect Yuuri at all costs! I can't believe I didn't take this seriously. Who do we call, OP??? |
 |
| master seems to be all alone. no mama no daddy jus a hot boobilicious maid. I see no problem , I see opportunity |
 |
| The whole premise is a young boy’s fantasy: living alone in a mansion without parents or grownups and only a sexy maid to care for me! So since it is such an outrageous fantasy, it’s hard to worry about the age gap. You might say the age gap is the whole point of the show. |
| you do know that theres a genre called shota love right? |
MyOwnGod said: And why am I not surprised by this post? The Twitter generation really likes to push their "age gap" agenda at every corner. Japanese are "pedos" by the western standards, get used to it. well, once the world settle down it's time to create new problems, welcome to reality everyone ButtSlapper said: you do know that theres a genre called shota love right? but not enough straight shota content |

| The age gap doesn't matter much tbh. It's garbage with or without it. |
 |
| You: Age does matter, as long as it's legal. Others: Age doesn't matter, as long as there's love in it. Me: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| you really came to the wrong neighborhood kiddo |
| comment in the wiki: No need to worry anymore... it is confirmed in the anime that she is not too much older than him (prob 5-7) Piromysl said: It's not Twitter, bruh.

| I love the age gap, their relationship is smart in how it's portrayed. He's honest to a fault, she tries to act mature, but ends up embarrassed, every time. The part about grooming, you mentioned is fun to consider, but irrelevant. Because the female lead looses control as soon as she tries to establish it. The MC is relentless in his honesty and throws her off her game. Her "game" isn't even solid enough to call it as such. |

If anything this just makes the show better

| @MadanielFL yeah, it was a unique show. Can't believe people get worked up about it. |
