Synopsis

The innocent Nagomi Wahira has always admired the cute girls serving at maid cafes. Hoping to fulfill her dream of becoming one, she moves to Akihabara to work at the maid cafe Ton Tokoton.

Nagomi's first day seems completely normal—until she has to run an "errand" at a rival maid cafe along with her fellow recruit, the mature Ranko Mannen. There, things quickly go south, and Nagomi soon gets her first taste of Akihabara's violent maid wars. As she watches Ranko calmly battle her way through a horde of gun- and knife-wielding maids, Nagomi realizes that maid cafes are drastically unlike what she had envisioned.

While struggling to reconcile her expectations with the harsh reality she finds herself in, Nagomi searches for the enjoyment she once saw in the lives of maids.

Background

The word "Meido" (冥途) in the title is a play on words, where the kanji means "underworld," and is pronounced the same as "maid" in Japanese pronunciation.

I don't watch anime as frequently as I used to, but I really enjoyed this one and I watched all in one day. I really liked the sense of humor and I thank that they do not explain the jokes as animes use to do. Overall, I think it has many interesting turns, funny moments, they know also how to transmit tension. I really liked it. This anime is not as centered in the characters themselves, but in the plot, and I think that is okay. I didn't have much expectatives when I first started it and I feared that it may be cringe but ...

Mixed Feelings
This was a really fun anime because the concept was one of its kind: maid cafes x gang/mafia. The great dichotomy between those two concepts in itself is hard not to make iconic when merged into a story, so the real issue I had with this anime was the execution.

Pros: The characters had distinct, comical personalities (although a bit stereotypical). The plot was also fairly decent, but it was mostly so funny. It's so damn hilarious to think that cute maid girls are actually gangsters. I laughed a lot at each episode because of how ridiculous it was, and many scenarios were quite memorable. ...

I could not get into Akiba Maid War at any point. For a while, I thought this was just the usual ‘comedy I don’t particularly find funny’ kind of watch where the novelty runs through quickly, and I never really care about it but I slap a 5 on it because a joke does land here and there and it’s not really that bad – an anime/10. Those are pretty hard to watch, but there’s nothing really wrong with them, right?

This one… there was one notable character I cared about whatsoever and the show's endgame trampled all over that while undoing the entire conflict/resolution of ...
