I mentioned this on the preview guide, but it looks like Crunchyroll updated how they capitalize the name between episodes 1 and 2. "Servant" is now capitalized on all their site listings and the anime poster, but ANN is still using the weird-looking "Ms. servant" that was in the original promotional material.

Reina Ueda as a beautiful and cute assassin learning to live as a human again thanks to a lonely young boy who has a habit of taking in strays! All depicted with beautiful visuals! It's slowly growing on me!
I'm curious how deeply they'll dive into Yuki's background because it seems like she had a normal childhood up until she was suddenly trained as an assassin. And how did she escape that and become Hitoyoshi's maid? |

A comparison to Ben-To is close to the highest possible recommendation a show can get, as far as I'm concerned. Guess I'll give this one a shot after all.

Riko is an absolute delight. She's just so cute and enthusiastic!
Wow, they even went the transfer student route (but kind of glossed over the classmates reacting to her). Will this go in a romantic direction beyond Riko shipping the two and how flustered Hitoyoshi gets over Yuki? That chalk scene was absolutely hilarious. I honestly didn't expect we'd see another assassin but I can't complain about how she's voiced by LYNN and just as sexy and sensual as Yuki. |

I quite enjoyed episode 5. And that was some very entertaining voice work by LYNN.

It seems like the fanservice aspect of the show has increased with the introduction of Grace. We even get an underwear scene with Yuki!
Yuki can be talked into anything Katsu related. Heck, she views people who make it and the sauce as absolutely divine. I'm really curious what happened with Hitoyoshi's mom. She made it sound like it was her fault she had to be separated from Hitoyoshi, but she got to take Riko with her? And it was obviously very traumatizing for him. I like how Hitoyoshi and Yuki's relationship is mutual in a sense that both are able to heal each other from their respective emotional trauma's and fill each other with happiness. |

They've definitely ratcheted up the fanservice aspect with so much cosplay and a Yuki fashion show! Also they reused the same shot of her in her underwear.
Also we probably won't get a beach episode so here's Yuki in a swimsuit! Grace and Riko feel like a chaotic duo in the making. Is this pink-haired girl a ninja? I get that vibe from her and her brother. So after her mentor Yuki's last handler gave her the maid outfit and inspired her to believe she didn't have to be an assassin any more? Long-lost younger sister!? Huh!? Maybe Yuki should've mentioned that before? Now I'm trying to remember if there was ever another girl in Yuki's flashbacks. |

I hate to be critical of things I'm generally only watching for dumb entertainment, but man I'm starting to sour on this show. It feels more incoherent as a whole every week. It's got a parade of cliches, but without the self-aware, over the top indulgence other shows have managed.
Like, as a whole, what is this show supposed to be about? A former assassin trying to be a maid? We dropped that pretty quick. A cold-blooded killer learning to live normally? Maybe, but Yuki doesn't seem all that cold blooded and no one seems bothered by her being a killer. Is it a slice-of-life rom-com? Sorta, I guess. Is it pure farcical comedy? Not really, seems it wants to be serious. I can't tell what the point of all this is, and there's not that much left in the season to make whatever it's trying to do work. |

Yeah this show kind of sucks. It's at best kind of cute, but mostly dull/repetitive, and at worst actively annoying (the new brother character is awful and I'm so tired of hearing about tonkatsu sauce).
