Maid meets Maid, now that's a new one.

All female cast huh? Meh, whatever keeps them away from making subpar romance stories is a good sign.

So, according to ANN, the "Meido" in the title can be alternatively read as Underworld, in the japanese writting (LMAO, Japanese is such a flexible language)... considering what happens in end of the PV

Is this another case of

.

Of course, I COULD be wrong. It could just be a normal slice of life about meido culture in Akiba, and that fall scene being random bait, with her 100% healthy, seconds, later.

Huge fan of Cygames as a Priconne player, so I'll check this one out.

Cygames and P.A. works? I’m SOLD. Uma Musume is probably one of my favorite anime from recent times.

The maid industry is a very intriguing one in Japan and it would be interesting to see how they portrays it. Studio is P.A Works and the production staff look good as well. Hopefully it's something good.

Meh, another all-girl anime

If it has maids, then it goes to PTW, I guess.

Looks like strange but I’m totally on board to watch it

Another P.A. Works X Cygames thingie-a-bob? Why not?

Jun 24, 2022 12:01 PM by KANLen09

Looks like its a cultured series.

Akiba maid huh !? Looks interesting

Seems like it's going to be a fun watch, and that's a pretty good staff lineup to boot!

Definitely going to keep an eye on this.

Gonna check this one out.

The fact that Japanese developers started using English words at certain points also helps, huh?

for sure. I think they prefer spelling some in English, instead of in Katakana (which would usually take more space and characters to spell)

And if u are planning on playing the iM@S rhythm games, i feel one would be able to adjust easily to them if they played Bandori/Prosekai/other rhythm games in EN. I find some skills and words are shared thru a lot of those games, and i only recall playing Prosekai for a week

I'm a big fan of Bandori (although it takes me a lot more energy to play on a tablet than on a phone) and D4DJ. I'm more salty about Prosekai, though, as I don't get along very well with the typical audience for such games in the West.

No i don't. I usually use a translator app like Google Lens combined with any fan translations of guides, etc. that i use to help play. Tho after playing a few JP gacha for a few months now, i can 'read' keywords and Hiragana/Katakana when necessary

Do you know Japanese? I wouldn't mind playing Idolm@ster or some other games that aren't available in the west, but to be honest, the Japanese market itself is saturated with impersonal mobile games that are forgotten even faster than the anime that advertises them.

Honestly if it doesn't get a global release I'll still play it through QooApp or something. been quite used to playing a few gacha in a different language. What wouldn't make me interested is some lame auto game like PuraOre or Lapis Re:LiGHTs

Which will not necessarily be available for the Western market. It all depends on how much they want to invest in this project.

hmm, then it shouldn't be weird to expect a gacha adaptation announcement following the anime. Cool
