Damn, that maid just came in, cleaned the place, and left.



I saw it happen!!!!!!!

I was thinking that she was like santa but a cleaning maid instead.

 

[SuperRobotSolo]

I'd like a maid like that too.

The chadette maid: Enters the room, cleans everything in silence, makes breakfast, refuses to elaborate further and leaves.
It's also hilarious that Mori-sensei made 8 pages of cleaning so interesting.
Thanks for the oneshot!

My god, Mori's art is so amazing. I'd wish it get an anime if only to draw more eyes to all her works. She deserves the attention of fame for her massive skill.

Even something as mundane as cleaning is so captivating

There actually is an anime for Emma. But Mori-sensei's art is so full of detail no anime could keep up with it.

Mori, victorian-garbed maids in a room with modern cup ramen and soda cans at the same time? Are youself-inserting AND wishful thinking - AGAIN? :-D

I kind of get the impression the woman sleeping is Mori-sensei and that this is kind of a fantasy of hers, since she clearly loves maids a lot. That would explain the tears at the end, she didn't get to actually meet the maid!

So she saw the pigsty, cleaned it for the last time as it is her job, and then was like "fuck this, I resign"

A couple months late, but this is such a gorgeous oneshot (as expected of Mori Karou’s works)! It motivated me to clean my room lol, it’s amazing how the author can make cleaning so captivating through her art.

I interpreted the oneshot as the former(?) maid of the household checking up on her mistress, and finding her depression nest. Perhaps the mistress grew depressed after the passing of her parents, judging by the beer and wine bottles by the bed and scattered across the room, along with the photo of her and her parents. The maid cleans up her mistress’ bedroom, and silently leaves soon before she wakes up, leaving freshly made tea. As the mistress awakes and sips her tea, she tears up, perhaps due to bittersweet nostalgia and the memories of life with her parents and maid.

Or it could just be a maid fantasy too! It’d be nice to have late night Victorian maid cleaning services lol
