♡ Meet the Maids ♡

Nakata Naomi!

Naomi is an arts student who loves everything cute and sweet. While clumsy and a little lacking in confidence, she's always trying her hardest in life no matter the task.

 Her optimistic spirit shines in the face of adversity, even if this makes her come across as naïve at times. She intends to work at Moe Moe Maiden to gain a feeling of what 'real life' is like, though this may test her ideals.

Okui Momoe / Milfeulle-chan!

Momoe is the eldest of the girls at Moe Moe Maiden. She goes by the maid name Milfeulle, which she says is inspired by the pastry, even though it's spelled more like the anime character.

She's not quite as invested in her job as the other maids, but has been able to stick around by virtue of her kind and cooperative attitude. Her warm personality could still be hiding some secrets.

Dango-chan!

Dango-chan is something of a local celebrity at the café. She stands out with her gyaru fashion sense and drill twintails. She pushes herself to work because she sees the maid café as a way to further her career as an idol.

This puts her towards the top of the maid rankings, although there might be a cost to her popularity.

Acting more enthusiastically may get Naomi closer to her.

Potato-chan!

Potato-chan is a girl of few words. No one understands why she chose her maid name, as it seems to contrast with her elegant demeanour.

She still attracts plenty of customers who find her cold mannerisms cute, and takes her job more seriously than the others. For some mysterious reason, she's always the last to leave the café at night.

Acting more reserved may get Naomi closer to her.

Very enjoyable little game. I liked the visuals, the ost, and the story. It felt frantic and quick but as someone who spent a couple years in the service industry, I can speak from experience that that time flies by way too fast. I'm not super into visual novels but this is a special little game. Good on ya.
