Kamen no Maid Guy

Postby Sukunai » Sat Apr 12, 2008 8:41 pm

Ok this is the soon to be moved thread for this series potentially.

Just watched the first show of this today. Had the pleasure of checking it out with a fellow local anime fan buddy of mine.

I wasn't sure what I was getting into, I was mainly just curious, and had the opportunity.

Friggin laugh riot it was :)

Yeah there's just sooooo many maid series out there. Just another reason for a maid with great hooters to do the bidding of a master aaaaaalll over again. It's understandable I suppose, if I was rich and single I'd like to have a cute maid for that matter.

But this show features two maids, one somewhat typical looking, and one that looks like he could bite off Conan the Barbarian's head and eat it :)

The show has no trouble offering up fanservice, so the teenage boys will enjoy this one for the usual reasons. But it's got some funny variations too. Seems to combine the over the top personal security of Sgt Sosuke (think I spelled that right) from Full Metal Panic, with a maid based series.

Only got one show out so far, so I can't tell where this is going to go. But I loved the laughing. I want more.

I posted this in another thread and I feel like I should now post it here so other people can see this maid guy:

Perhaps I should go check this out, since you say it's so funny. I could always use some more comedy. :)

Yeah I think Livingflame gets the credit for letting me know of it's existence :)

I looked it up on I think ANN encyclopdia and got the needed genre hits.

You learn quick what the show is about fast.

Fanservice level is fairly high. Seems to be a lot of that lately. I've recently been laughing at a number of maid intensive shows that feature a large dose of female nudity and boundary pushing sexy humour.

But hey, it doesn't bug me (I like females alot, of course it doesn't bug me :)).

But Kogarashi, he's so extreme :)

Have not been able to figure out why a maid outfit though. I mean why not a butler?

Because he is so much cooler than Hayate :P

That being said, this was on my to watch list for the new season, I'll be getting it shortly.

I have heard that it lacks any real type of plot? I dunno if you can tell from episode 1, but it's not like I have a problem with it anyway, as long as their characters undergo some sort of change.

Just wow. That picture alone makes me want to check this one out. Looks to be most interesting.
I love to wear absurd and totally impractical garments. What's more, I derive great pleasure from spending time with women for no apparent reason.

Plot? you're kidding right Pas :)

Who says we always need a cerebral plot?

Bugs Bunny never needed a plot either.

In the first few minutes of the episode you see a girl in the shower, and she's drawn anatomically correct ie she actually has nipples (go figure).

From there, the show just goes into full entertainment mode.

Hayate is cool too though. No regrets that it has 52 shows.
