Yuuri has a quick mouth lol

First episode had that "mysterious" vibe with Lilith appearing in her maid outfit. Lilith had the personality to tease Yuuri with that mysterious smile on her face. Animation wise, it's okayish I guess, nothing really special but watchable.

Lilith feels like she was born for her maid role though. Funny episode.

From Wakame Konbu, the same mangaka that brought you Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai!, comes his 2nd series to get an anime adaptation, helmed by Silver Link director Mirai Minato and his staff team (that's largely the same as Jahy-sama!).

The blonde kid master Yuuri that has maid Lilith (voiced by Rie Takahashi, which honestly looks like an older Jahy) hired to take care of both him and the old mansion, as the title proclaims, he's easily suspicious of her mysterious antics.

For one, when Yuuri is placed in the old mansion, he tries to do everything on his own at first, that is until this maid comes along as an aid, which Yuuri thinks that she is a liability at first. But with her allures, he let her into his life, taking care of chores and maintaining the spick-and-span treatment of the mansion. Of course, she's just kidding and trying to tease Yuuri.

Even something as simple as fixing meals, Yuuri also faces the slight thought that Lilith is here to make his life hard through magic, but in all honesty, it's just teasing back and forth for that lovey-dovey feels that's just like Takagi-san (y'know, because it's the Queen of Teasing Rie Takahashi).

The suspicious maid that is Lilith, and Yuuri's questions of why she's being so close to him, does have a reason. What that is, we'll know as the weeks pass on.

For now, this is a decent start.

Though this anime will most likely be just a waifu bait, I'm all on board.
It's been a while since we had a maid anime (Dragon Maid, while being a masterpiece didn't really cut it in this aspect) and as a maid connoisseur, I was totally hyped.
I'm worried about art style quality. At points it looks just bad. Also, Lilith's bust size seem to constantly change between the shots, which is a major blubder.

Also:
- dark skin
- purple eyes
- literally named "Lilith"
Nah, not "ayashi" at all.

Lilith seems to know Yuuri from before. There is still a lot of mystery about herself. Ayashiiiiiiiiiiii..........

Suspicious, way too suspicious. Young master smooth af though.

Seems like a decent ish adaptation but the background visuals are quite bland and looks artificial.

Aside from the personality, Yuuri definitely reminds me of Oz from Pandora Hearts, mainly the green eyes and blonde hair.

Im not sure if I will continue to watch.

You hire someone that you find suspicious, and just after a good while read the person's resume.

Lilith decided that the sexier outfit was better than the standard one that she had in her previous job.

I'm 100% sure that the first word that this guy uttered upon being born was Suspicious and the last thing he will utter on his death bed will also be Suspicious.

Apart from that, its pretty formulaic and weary. Also quite weird that he, as an employer, didn't even know the maid's name. Seeing as its set in the modern age, I really don't think he could have been allowed to live on his own but I guess we gotta leave Rie and this child alone in a house.

Lets gooo Jahy 1.5 is here. Saturdays were already PACKED and just got more packed.

This show gives off duke and his death maid type vibes. Really enjoyed the first episode. Nice introduction to the world and characters. Looking forward to seeing where it goes from here

This show has promise, but its promise that goes both ways. I loved the dynamic between main duo, character design and artstyle. Also Silver link tends to produce consistently fun anime, so i got hopes high.
That said... If it doesnt improve quickly in episode 2, it will fail worse than "Pirate princess Fena's" ending. Humor and action in first episode was good, but they really, really hammered that joke to the ground.

I think we all know how this series is gonna play out, as it's by the same mangaka as Jahy it's bound to be boring, unoriginal and predictable which after watching episode 1 I believe that it is. Honestly I wanna give it a chance but theres no incentive to watch it imo when there's so much other stuff this season that is much better spent watching.

oh boi, idk where to start and where to end
first, MC saying "she is suspicious" was funny the first time, cose among us... then he kept repeating the same lines the whole episode

second, Lilith is hot alright BUT they went and ruined her by making her shy instead of lewd

third, MC has the hots for her and he is angrier than me while he is talking to her

i was going to drop it BUT those last scenes with some romance instead of stupidity kind of saved it for me
i will watch ep2 and just give me romance and make me happy
i swear if i see 1 more sus line

i was excited for this1 too, sadge

I remember I had difficulty getting through those earlier episodes of Jahy sama last year, given the snoozefest it was. Though it did grow on me later on, so kinda expecting those very same things this time too, as again the start felt so-so to me.

Anyways some lucky shouta he's having a big-booby maid to look after him( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Idk, I found this enjoyable. I love how Lilith tries to embarrass Yuuchi yet he just reflects that on her. I think this could get better with the introduction of more characters, and I hope it ends up being better than Shikimori

This is as casual as you can get for a show, the only thing carrying it is the god tier voice actors taking on this role, not the best episode but I'll wait a few more weeks to make sure.

I’ll admit I tuned in to this solely because of the maid waifu, but this is actually not bad at all. This series is giving me a bit of a “Duke of Death and His Maid” kind of vibe, in that you got a loner living with a flirty maid. At least that’s what came to mind as I was watching.

I like how Yuuri’s vivid imagination leads him to saying some embarrassing stuff, which ends up making Lilith blush. It’s fun seeing her attempts to tease him backfire lol.

But anyways, Lilith is certainly very mysterious. No wonder Yuuri would be suspicious when she just showed up out of the blue. At least she’s really good at her job. I’m quite curious as to her connection to Yuuri. It seems vaguely personal. I’m looking forward to exploring their relationship more as the series progresses.

All in all, a fun episode imo. I like the dynamic developing between these two and the air of mystery around the maid. I’ll check out a few more episodes, but I think I’ll be sticking with this one.

Good start.

My only concern is that the comedy of this series is already beginning to be a bit repetitive. I hope they spice it up a bit instead of the "She's suspicious, she must have ________. Thats why you (Compliment that makes her blush)" and repeat.

What happens when you put Jahy-sama and Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid together? Right, you get something like this xD

The episode was okay overall and the maid is hot but the "she is suspicious" joke was too overused.

At the beginning of the episode my gf and I decided that I would play the bass boosted "Among Us: Dead Body found" sound everytime he said "suspicious". We had to do it a lot.

Another Onee/shota series involving a maid Lilith and the young master Yuuri who was living in a mansion by himself prior to her arrival after loosing his parents. Life in the mansion has been easier now that Lillith is around, but Yuuri can't help but suspect her mysterious nature. My only fear is that I hope this doesn't become a repetitive gag where Yuuri is always suspicious of her after living with him for several months and that there is some development between the two characters.

Was expecting this one to be like the gag comedy aspect only of Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid but this first episode kind of landed on the repetitive side though with lackluster humor.
Guess it will take a few episodes to see if it is worth watching.

A simple and straightforward OneShota no strings attached, Hayami Saori's shota voice is a 10/10 but not so sure about Lillith, Takahashi Rie does a great job but I expected the maid too sound a bit more mature / seductive.

A pretty good episode imo. RIP Yuuri's parents. That made sure is mysterious, which I guess might be the main hook of the series. Apparently, in the manga, her eyes are still in color, purple, upping the mystery factor.
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

I loved this, I’m very happy to see another anime from the mangaka that made Jahy-sama, I adored Jahy and I’m already loving this just from this episode. We didn’t learn her name until near the end of the episode, but Lilith is definitely a nice female lead, gotta love having another dark waifu lol. And I’m enjoying her interactions with Yuuri, the fact that her teasing always backfires when Yuuri is confronting her is a funny dynamic, and Lilith’s reactions are always cute too.

And I liked the bits of backstory we got here too, it looks like Lilith was probably a maid there at one point and would explain Yuuri saying he’s seen her before, I’m guessing we’ll know for sure later. Without a doubt this is gonna be a favorite of mine this season, I really look forward to more! And I loved both the OP and ED, fitting songs and nice visuals!

Silver link does what they do best: cute girls and shota.

I totally didn't expect that Yuuri is on the offensive side. I thought this was going to be your usual onee-san teasing shota type of anime, but turns out I was wrong.

Ayashii. Ayashisugiru.

Edit: the mansion is poor and yet Yuuri has magnificent breakfast every morning ever since Lilith arrived.

Great episode! The OP was great. Yuuri is suspicious about Lilith his new maid...
He lost his parents in a car accident so decided to take over the mansion. Though he didn't have enough money to keep on the current servants...
So he decided to live alone.
It seems he wasn't well suited to housework however...
Lilith visited the mansion and asked to be hired by him without being paid and just being a live in maid.
Seems he is bewitched by her eyes and thinks she really is a sorcerer xD. Seems he is confessing his feelings to Lilith without even noticing!
He even believes she put a love potion in his food and then confesses his feelings again without noticing the impact of it?!!

Looking forward to the next episode!

Sus eh? Well as long as she is not seen entering or exiting any vents I think she'll be fine.

She certainly is done lovely. Dark skin and beauty marks. Very friendly, seems to care and a nice plot. Prime waifu bait. Almost too nice.... hm... yep... sus!

However, I'm a bit veary. Im having Shikimori flashbacks, just instead of kawaiiii it will be ayashiiiii this time. I really hope there is more to it.
We'll see how this goes, but I hope it's not just ara ara discount Otome Fairy Tale. I guess there is a mystery to it, so that'll help me going forward.


PS: There was this one background where she cleans the window that was so comicaly bad that someone is probalby looking for new job now lol. Good luck!

The repetitiveness in the first episode makes this show boring. And the boy easily wins over any heart with his honesty, so even the show has some love war going on the maid will sooner or later offer her naked body to the boy. :)

Okay start, this. Felt a little repititive already, to be frankly honest, but I'll give it a few more episodes.

Jahy-sama in maid form, that seems quite appropriate lol. Seems like there's some sort of past connection that brings her here? Curious to see how this mystery will unfold. Bocchan, for one, is very curious xD. And it's amazing to see how he's able to express himself without holding back at all xD, no wonder Lilith-san has to sometimes retreat.
