* Based on a seinen manga series written and illustrated by Nakayama Miyuki.
High school student Dino, sees her from the inside and approaches her.
Maika soon takes up the part-time job of waitress at Stile, but it turns out that her new workplace's very raison d'être is the rather outlandish characteristic of having each waitress play a certain character archetype, such as tsundere, and Dino is convinced that Maika can play the role of sadist. Maika steps up to the challenge, but soon figures out that being a sadist doesn't suit her; at a loss as to how to keep customers from getting angry at her, she tries her best to smile and be nice to them. It turns out, however, that her nervousness keeps getting the better of her; the harder she tries to be nice, the better she plays the role that Dino assigned to her.

A fun and romantic story.
The characters are all pretty diverse but work well with each other.
I like Maika the best. She is simply adorable - especially in combination with Dino and with her siblings.
The character design is cute, the stories either cute, funny or romantic and the music perky.
If you want to watch something funny watch this.
It's worth the time!

What a good blend!
I wasn't thinking much when I started watching it. It had a pretty fun start and eventually it grew on me. Its a workplace rom-com with a set of very cute and adorable characters and its blends into a really fun watch. And I believe that's its strength. I can totally imagine the studio making merchandise out of these characters and I would buy them.
And because of the strong cast synergy, the jokes generated around them really makes for a good chuckle. Its not too hardcore funny but it hits that nice spot of funny and relaxed. Then you blend that with a cheerful environment and catchy upbeat music.
Awesome recommend for good fun laughter and cute characters. 7/10 for me. Off to comiket to see if they are selling any keychains!

A fun little workplace comedy with some romantic tones. It takes advantage of the fetishistic character templates for a fair bit of its humor. Everyone's ultra cute and the jokes are actually funny at times, but it adheres pretty solidly to typical comedy rules and is little more than just a fun little watch. I wasn't particularly enthusiastic about this show, but since I got a chuckle or two out of pretty much every episode, it was at least a worthwhile -time.

reminded me a lot of the anime Kin-iro Mosaic instead of 2 girls they put a blonde guy who loves asian girl with black hair and the black haired girl who love blonde haired foreigner.
Really fun 4-koma comedy for those who enjoy comedy I highly suggest this anime. the character are all pretty cute my personal favorite would be Sakuranomiya Maika the main character and one of her coworker Hinata Kaho.
Expect the same type of comedy has Kin-iro Mosaic and if you happen to not know Kin-iro Mosaic I really suggest giving it a shot 10/10

Review
Being in a maid cafe sits among one of my weirdest and most shameful experiences. It is terribly discomforting seem the girls' efforts to serve you while impersonating a cute vassal ready to make your day sparkle. It is, however, an interestingly exotic concept, especially for those abroad.
Blend S tries its hand at a maid cafe animation, one with some set of unique ideas. Instead of the themes being how the waitresses are dressed, it is about how they interact with the customers. There is a maid playing an older-sister stereotype, another being the little-sister everyone wants to bang (because this is Japan, that sick bastards), and there is even the sadistic girl that acts as if she despises every customer instead of trying to attract them. This last persona is the role of our protagonist, Sakuranomiya Maika, a high school girl who wants to save some money but never manages to get a job because she naturally reacts with disgust to people around her. Yeah. The perfect girl for the sadistic maid.
Comments
There's nothing wrong with Blend S except that's there's nothing right with it too. Yeah. It could be labeled as a safe light comedy and you could watch it without much of an issue, but sadly it means nothing on the long run. It has no social consequences, the comedy is anything but clever, and there are no high stakes with emotional drama to make it end. It is a 4-koma as in the books, and that's not exactly a good, especially with some recent 4-koma based shows having so much more to them.
Anyway, if it is your desire to see some cute girls and get some smile on your face, perhaps this can work. Of course, you must have the mood to see a show that only has jokes about the innards of the wet-otaku reality, but it's a decent one.

- It's a funny thing
In general, Blend S goes around the daily life of the maid cafe as Maika learns how to the job. She wants to perform, but she ends up always being a mean sadistic bitch to her customers. Fortunately for her, that's her new job's description, so we could say she does a very good job at that. These small cliche things around dere-templates and Maika's role offer some funny acts, which is perhaps the biggest and one of the only two strengths of an otherwise simple show.
And it's cute
Yeah, I give you that. If Blend S required cute maid girls, it got it. Maika, Mafuyu, Kaho, Miu, and Hideri are as cute as they can be, which is something achieved by the right guys for the job: studio A1-Pictures. Yeah. those guys? They are certainly busy these last few years with so many shows, but Blend S is of a genre that is perfect for their cute little girls and colorful palette. Add that some decent voice-acting for annoying girls and an expressive power in form of classical comedy cartoon and there's the second and last strong point of the show.
That's it though
This is based on a 4-koma and that means it is a theater piece turn on with infinite loop. You will see many episodes about daily life, some cheesy events to evoke comical consequences, and of course exploring the girls' roles in the maid cafe, which are tropes of your average light novel deres. This is no clever comedy with some social questioning such as Servant x Service or New Game, it is simply a show to watch from time to time and be allured by the cuteness and light comedy.
At least it is a bit realistic
Well, it does have other people in it, such as the cafe owners and the cook guy, so it never really moves away from what it can really happen in some random maid cafe run by very young people. It is like an otaku wet dream of starting business, so there's some points which can really happen if the elements adds up in real life. It could, however, truly benefit from some kind of risk here as this real-life inspiration is nothing more than nerdgasm.

introvert (1)Introverts are people whose energy tends to expand through reflection and dwindle during interaction. They tend to be more reserved and less outspoken in groups. Introverts generally enjoy time spent alone or with close friends, and find less reward in time spent with large groups of people.
Some of the typical solitary activities are reading, writing, using computers, hiking and fishing. The archetypal artist, writer, sculptor, engineer, composer, and inventor are all considered highly introverted.
Not to be confused as being shy - introverts prefer solitary activities over social ones, where as shy people (who may be extraverts at heart) avoid social encounters out of fear. Like extroversion, introversion is not a black and white measurement, and these people may share some of the same traits than extroverts.young adult (3)Someone is generally considered a young adult if they are between 20 to 40 years old.
