I was hoping to find a shojo maid manga when I picked this one up. What I got was...certainly something else.
MAID SHOKUN, written by Nanki Satou with art by Akira Kiduki. First published in 2006 and first published in North America in 2011.
PLOT:
Chiyoko came to Tokyo from the countryside to study, but instead finds herself roped into helping out at the Akihabara maid cafe Mille Fille. It turns out that some of their new waitresses just quit, and Chiyoko turns out to be a natural at the maid role. Things get complicated when one of the girls has to deal with a stalker, two of the staff are outed as lesbians, Chiyoko finds herself starting to fall for a patron, and a sensationalist news story puts the cafe in peril.
