| Alright, Shiipon just went up heaps in points for me. You do you, girl. Also that 24 minutes absolutely whizzed by! From my perspective that's a sign I'm having lots of fun. This might be my show of the season. |
 |
| the message from this episode was fck being corporate slaves. lol |
 |
| Damn it's fucking creepy watching the maids getting brainwashed. Only Shiipon realizes that this is not what being a maid is about. I threw my arms in the air when Shiipon tackled Sano and yelled 'wohooooo'. So next on the list is the panda, huh. The action scenes have been ridiculously over the top so far that it serves as great comedic value. But I'm hoping we get more actual plot of the show next time. |

Inexplicable said: Agreed. The one anime girl who looks better with excessive makeup.Good thing they've reversed everything to the way it was, Shiipon without makeup and with natural hair looked like shit |
| "Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| I feel like this is one of the weaker episodes. It almost felt like filler content. Was still fun though |
 |
Can we talk about how beautiful the delivery of this line was |
| at least an episode that doesn't have a brutal merciless headshot! LOLZ the girls changed but it lasted a while and went back! hahah kinda pointless... 4/5. |
 |
| Too freaking hilarious! Now I have the feeling a lot of them are going to die at the end, fck. |

| having fun being a maid is more important than loyalty to the group, i learned a lot. |
 |
| Getting rid of the manager would have made wonders to the anime. Sad they reverted it, though expected. Siphoon was cuter without the makeup, but being fine with yourself is more important and I doubt the customers that go for her would have loved the change. |

| I didn't quite get it, was this episole supposed to make fun of Asian corporate culture or destructive psychopothalagic cults? Also, this show kills random characters so easily that after the 4th episode it starts to get a bit annoying. |

It's not making fun of anything particular, it's a literal gag comedy that juxtaposes Akihabara maids with the yakuza underworld, and that's the selling point of this series. Characters drop like flies because over-exaggerated brutality can be really funny. |
| Man like 2/3 of the cast got brainwashed that episode. Its like they all lost common sense and their distinctive personalities. Except Ranko she's the only one to stay like her stotic self. Not going to lie, they really should have punched that lady in the first five minutes. |
| Ranko be like this is supposed to be hellish training right because she's as normal as ever despite all that and also "Got busted 15 years ago" means she got jail time I believe? |

|
| Aren't they just back where they started? Still owing sweets money. I don't see the point of going through all that training to suddenly go back on it. Why couldn't they stage a coup before they got abused, beaten, and humiliated? Weird episode overall. |
  Arteta's Tricky Reds!   |
kyou_on said: Well they're back to the same situation, still owing sweets money. Their manager is incompetent as hell and always puts the maids through all sorts of bullshit so she has some responsibility. She is in debt with Creatureland and her schemes to get out of debt make the situation worse. You can't say Creatureland is at fault for simply demanding that their money be paid. So some here are actually simping for Sano, her brainwashing and the cult while trashing Shippon for resisting? Wow just wow. The only reason why the maid cafe is in debt is because the cult demands those “sweet” money. Instead of tackling the root cause (the cult), some of you actually blame the cafe manager and think she’s the one causing the downfall of the cafe. Like wtf? |
| Arteta's Tricky Reds! |
| This anime is so random and unique, and I've been enjoying it because of that. This episode did have some character development and we also got a hint of Ranko's past, something that happened 15 years ago. This episode also focused on Shiipon and how she refused to be brainwashed. She looked fine with and without makeup but glad she chose to look how she wants. She also got the manager and panda to come back and with a rocket launcher (where the hell did they get that?! lol). At least the training was not all a loss as Nagomi improved on her omurice ketchup designs. 👍 |
| The "Moe!" butt slap sound won't go away from my head for a couple of days. |

Maybe they're flying over your head but the jokes makes sense, all of them. |
| Holy fuck, this show man lmao. You can never predict what the next episode is gonna be about. Whoever thought of replacing Yakuzas with Maids is a fucking a genius. Poor Nagomi, but everytime she gets traumatized is just damn hilarious lmao, her VA is fucking great. The Manager is not human man, she's built different, while the Panda is actually a human. Shiipon was great this episode too, while Ranko just goes with the flow more or less. Really looking forward to see what fucked up shit the next episode will bring. |

LOL what? First you try to shame me for trying to understand the joke, and now you try to shame me for supposedly not seeing the point in them? What? |

Are you trying the rewrite the conversation, a conversation that happened in this very page? You ask what was the joke surrounding the episode and criticize the choice to have characters die frequently, to which I reply saying that the episode didn't make fun of anything in particular because the series' shtick is simply fusing the Akiba maid culture with the ruthless criminal underworld and that the repeated ultra violence scenes are meant to enhance the wacky nature of the show, so you then make a snarky reply about the gag not making any sense and start to accusing me of ''shaming'' you and misreading your sarcasm. I'd say that you need a rest or something. |

Stop backpedaling, that wasn't sarcasm, the fact you seriously asked it gives it away. If the jokes don't speak to you that's obviously fine and all, to each their own, but claiming that said jokes don't make any sense and are annoying because you feel they're overplayed (they're not, at all) is a complete different story. |

Just a little advice: what you personally perceive as sarcastic is in fact incredibly cheeky. If you want to block me or ignore me to expel yourself from the convo then suit yourself, I don't mind. |
| FINALLY someone acknowledges how ugly Shiipon looks with that excessive makeup. Those few seconds of her with a washed face and natural hair color were indeed a blessing. So... what was the point of this episode again? We only got a brief glimpse of who runs this mafia but other than that, practically everything returned to how it was in the beginning. Such a waste of time smh. |
| Maan, this show is so absurd it is so funny. Especially the Manager XD |

| NAGOMI IS MY GODDESS I hope they reveal who is inside the Panda costume, that secret is so fkng random I laugh just thinking about it. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it. |
| Lmao manager casually put the tea cup she drinking inside her pants! Shiipon without make up actually looked nice tho. |
 |
| It's still a weird idea executed at the perfection, every episode is great. I hope next episode has even more gunfights LETS GO |
| I like everything, ok |
| Shiipon looked much better without her makeup and I don't like her tbh. Idk why but Sano sensei was such a good teacher. I didn't like they became like they used to. The manager is funny but at the same time, are you not running a business? Come on... |
 |
| Shiipon looked decent without her ugly makeup but whatever, I guess... Funny how the manager literally ate from garbage bins yet she somehow materialized a freaking bazooka out of thin air xD Still wondering why this particular café isn't yet declared rogue and targeted by assassin maids from all over Tokyo. |
| Not watched it yet. But I had to jump through hoops, google searched the titled, brought me back around to hidive, even when logged in and watching this show weekly did not display in my next watch. I had high hopes for hidive given its content, but its just another shill platform advertising shit which you have to fight through to watch the shows you want. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Got there in the end. The yanks could learn a thing or too watching this eps. Dont mess in other peoples business. |
To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| That fact that they went through such a tough regime and it still ended up how it usually is was perfect. Really liked this episode. |
