The Four Main Girls of Fuwa Fuwa
Shiro
A maid who loves Fuwa Fuwa Cafe. A huge otaku for anime and video games, she talks really fast when she’s gushing about the things she loves, and often splurges on merch without thinking whenever she visits an anime shop. A little clumsy, but works hard every day to become the cute maid she’s always wanted to be.
""Um, please be the new manager of the cafe!""
Miyu
A game otaku and gyaru with a big appetite. Loves both eating and cooking, and apparently really enjoys serving her cooking to customers at Fuwa Fuwa Cafe. Is actually Shiro's friend on the online game Magic Angel, so they knew each other before actually meeting in real life.
""Hey Mr. Manager, thanks a bunch for hanging out with me today~☆""
Favna
A mysterious girl dressed in gothic Lolita fashion. Speaks in riddles and demands the protagonist become her familiar. She sometimes accidentally drops the edgy act when she's taken by surprise though, so maybe she's just got a serious case of chuunibyou...?
""I am the Slayer of the False God, the Queen of the Kingdom of Darkness, the All-Seeing Oracle, the Guardian of the Dream of All Things—""
Honoka
A girl with a Kansaiben dialect who works as a shrine maiden at her family shrine. Practically in charge of the shrine, she is reliable and very good at handling money, and has a strong sense of responsibility to boot. On top of that, she's also the only glasses girl at Fuwa Fuwa Cafe!
""Ya want a thrivin' business? That there sounds like a job for our shrine!""
Support Your Maid Cafe Employees as the Manager!
As the cafe manager, it's your job to allocate work to your maids. Make sure to give the right girl the right job! For example, Shiro is always enthusiastic to serve customers, and Miyu is great in the kitchen.
Of course, you can't just sit there while they work. During opening hours, you'll also have to make coffee and help out on the floor, so it's not as easy as it sounds!
The Stunning Sights of Nipponbashi
In order to recreate the atmosphere of the real Nipponbashi, the game features several real stores you can find there, such as Surugaya, Sofmap, Dragon Star, Super Potato, and Karaoke Rainbow, among many others. Don't forget to pay them a visit when you're shopping or taking one of your maids on a date!
Collectable Capsule Toys
If you've been to the real Nipponbashi, you'll know that there are capsule toy machines all over the area. In this game, you can also try your hand at collecting your favorite capsule toy series and experience that unique gacha thrill of not knowing what you're getting. As you collect more toys, you can even bring them up in conversations with the girls. Keep cranking those machines until you've collected them all!
