Season 1
Set in Akihabara in the spring of 1999, the story follows Nagomi Wahira, a bright‑eyed 17‑year‑old girl who moves to Akiba with a dream: to work at a maid café and live the “cute maid” ideal. She lands a job at the pig‑themed maid café “Ton Tokoton” (aka Oinky Doink). However, Nagomi quickly discovers that the maid‑café business in Akiba isn’t just about aprons and “moe” poses. It’s infused with cut‑throat competition, underworld machinations, and café rivalries that run deeply and dangerously.
Episodes
Welcome home to the pigsty! Nagomi just started a job at the pig-themed Oinky Doink maid café, and she couldn’t be happier. But the other newbie, Ranko, is a little… odd.
Nagomi’s first day got off to a rough start! Is the maid life right for her? Self-doubt leads to failure, so when the chips are down, she’ll dust off her apron and try again!
While the Oinky Doink maids put their hearts (and other organs) into it, Ranko must pull her punches to secure the café some extra cash at the exciting Fluffy n’ Sweet Club.
The Oinky Doink maids haven’t been acting particularly maid-like lately, and the Creatureland Group has taken notice. They have a week to whip themselves into shape…or else.
The clock’s ticking on the Oinky Doink’s overdue sweets money. Can a special birthday event for Ranko raise some quick cash? Seems like Nagomi (and Nagomi alone) thinks so.
The destruction of Wuv-Wuv Moonbeam cannot go unpunished. The Oinky Doink Café must make amends to Maidalien — but at what cost to Nagomi and Nerula’s budding sisterhood?
Nagomi is out sick after recent events. On a completely unrelated note, a ninja is running around Akihabara. This ninja definitely has no connection to Nagomi. Nope. None.
To mend fences, the Oinky Doink café will swing for the fences in a friendly game of baseball! But not everyone is as determined as Nagomi to play fair and square…
The battle to determine the ultimate maid approaches, and a certain Oinky Doink maid has her eyes on the prize! Can she survive the climb to the top of the heap?
Business at the Oinky Doink Cafe is booming. Meanwhile, the chief sets up a date between Ranko and one of her regulars. A certain panda also attempts to communicate.
The Oinky Doink Cafe’s success screeches to a halt when the Creatureland Group disowns them out of nowhere. But why is this happening!? A guilt-ridden Ranko may have answers.
What does it mean to be a maid? What is the essence of moe? And what awaits Nagomi at moe’s end? Find out in the finale of Akiba Maid War!
