The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious

I watched the Final Episode of Season 1 The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious last night. I really enjoyed this anime but know Season 1 seems short at only 11 episodes with each being around 20 minutes long. Sure the show teased a lot with mature situational suggestions with Lilith's dress & the suggestive dialogue between Lilith, Yuuri, Natsume, Gojouin and such but apart from that as the story went along it was very touching especially the way the finale finally explained the reasoning for the Lilith's suspicious arriving to become a maid at Yuuri's mansion. Apart from the continuing story of Yuuri being suspicious of why such a maid would help him at his mansion they had many other special events like the friending of a stray cat, a sports field day, a Halloween dress up party, a surprise Christmas party, and many other adventures in each episode of the season. I won't go into too much detail of any of it because I do not want to create any spoilers, but I really enjoyed this show and hope you do as well. I'm curious to see how long this shows goes on for & how the story develops if it continues. Thanks.

Initially, this anime did remind me a lot of "You're Ms. Servant", but it's just not the same. Honestly, I don't even have a full explanation about it.

The story follows Yuuri, somewhere between 10 and 12, and Lilith, this mysterious femme de chambre aged 16-18. Gradually, a subtle feeling of affection enters between the pair. Quite often, Yuuri complements Lilith from his own innocence while she would get shy at the compliment. At other times, she is teasing Yuuri while grinding her teeth to lacerate her affection-during her care for his needs and even his feelings.

This constant blend of adorable bantering, mystery, and soft feelings maintains the storyline light yet gripping. I cannot say much without giving things away, but I would just rather suggest to consider trying it; you might enjoy it.

Personally, I found it entertaining. I would give it a 7 out of 10.
