Once, there was a warrior.

A messenger from outer space who began...

...the invasion of Earthmen at the beginning of the 1980s.

The most powerful warrior of Vesper, Mahoro.

You have fought well until today. You have our gratitude.

You are likely already aware...

Your life span is nearly at an end.

If you continue as a warrior...

...your operation time is a mere 37 days.

However, if you remove your armor...

...I have been told that you will still be operational for 398 days.

Mahoro, you have done more than your share for Vesper.

If you have a dream to fulfill...

...would you like to live your remaining time freely?

What? U-Um...

Huh?

Now, choose the path you would like to take.

My wish...

My final wish is...

Episode 1

In The Garden Where The Hydrangeas Bloom

You're hiring a maid?

You, Suguru?

Uh, is... is that a bad thing?

No, not at all.

We thought we'd act surprised for the time being.

Your place's outer appearance is fine, but...

You're saying the inside's a big mess, right?

That's why!

Still, it can't be easy

for a middle school student to live alone.

Hey.

Oh, yeah...

S-Say! A maid is a live-in deal, right?

What if the maid you got was young and incredibly beautiful?

It's nothing like that.

If she is, introduce me!

Hey, give me some room.

Well, I have an interview with the maid...

...so I have to go.

Right!

Later.

Wow, s-she's cute!

Maybe she's a waitress from a tea shop or a restaurant?

I don't remember a restaurant with uniforms like a maid.

A maid, huh?

It'd be great if the live-in maid was a cute, young girl like her.

Suguru-san, it's morning.

Please get up now.

Another five minutes.

That's not good.

You'll be late for school.

Come in and sleep with me.

That's not good, Master.

Master.

Hey!

Listen up!

Cooperate if you don't want to die!

You've gotta be kidding.

Damn!

I was a little too greedy.

Masa-nii, I-I don't wanna get arrested yet!

Idiot!

If we have to go to jail,

I'll slaughter everyone on this bus first.

What's with this chick?

Hey, make this heap go faster!

This is as fast as it goes!

Shit. Nobu, you drive.

Hey, move, you loser!

Shut up!

I-I'm sorry

But Tama-chan...

Here's Tama-chan.

Hey.

Who said it was okay to move, huh?

Who said it was okay to move?

What a hard cheekbone this little brat has.

A-Aniki!

W-What do we do? We'll be caught!

Damn it, they won't catch me!

I'll get away. You'll see!

This is a stopover.

Fall, as my representative.

We'll teach the cops...

...that it's really not a good idea to get us excited!

Help!

The women and children are enough hostages.

Go on! Get out already, you!

Jump!

Stop it!

Hey, kid. What did you just say?

Come over here and say that again.

I said stop it.

Yeah? Whatcha gonna do, kid?

Your big mouth says you wanna fight me.

You can go first.

It doesn't bother me.

Knock it off!

If you lay one finger on that gentleman, I won't forgive you!

I've decided. You'll go first.

I'll shoot you dead.

Oh, really? I think that's impossible.

See?

Y-You're a monster!

I'm not a ghost.

I am an android!

Aniki!

Please don't do anything thoughtless while driving.

Huh?

Everybody, please get down!

Are you all right?

I-I'm fine!

That's a relief. Everyone else appears to be okay, too.

Are you all right?

I used to be a combat android...

...so this amount of action is nothing.

Oh, that's not good.

I would like to avoid a police investigation,

so, if you will excuse me, I'd better go.

S-Sure.

What a crazy day this has been!

Besides, that girl said she was a combat android.

That's impossible.

ajisai no hana ga saita nara If the flower of the hydrangea were to bloom...

Oh, I'm sorry. I entered your garden without permission.

Your hydrangea are so pretty. I couldn't help myself.

You're the...

Forgive me.

I'm from the Vesper Maid Referral Service.

My name is Mahoro.

Starting today, I'll be your maid...

...to the best of my ability, Suguru-san.

Earth was subjected to an alien invasion before we knew it?

A group called Vesper...

...was formed to defend ourselves from aliens?

You're an ultimate combat android created by Vesper?

Yes, that's me!

Out of nowhere, she says she's an android maid.

I can't believe that.

Self-proclaimed Android

What she did was definitely superhuman,

What she did was definitely superhuman,

but she's looking quite human to me.

No, now that it's come to this, I'll accept she's an android!

Mahoro-san, why did you decide to become a maid?

I've worked as a combatant ever since I was constructed,

but recently, I was relieved of that duty.

I could have chosen to live in easy retirement...

...but if I don't work, every day is so boring.

That's why I asked the Leader to transfer me...

...to the Vesper job placement department.

ANDROID MAID

VESPER JOB PLACEMENT

LEADER

RETIREMENT

COMBAT ANDROID

I just thought it would be nice...

...to be of use to someone as an android maid.

Um, Suguru-sama, will you hire me?

S T A R E

I did want to hire a maid, but...

...Mahoro-san looks like she's only in high school.

I don't have the confidence to live under one roof with her.

What if I turned down the contract?

Well, I couldn't blame you for turning me down.

I am a combat android, after all.

That ain't the problem here.

Suguru

If I go ahead and turn Mahoro-san down, what'll she do?

Does she have anywhere to go?

Does she have a home?

Okay, let's do this.

For now, I'll contract you temporarily and see how things go.

After that, I'll decide whether to hire you.

How does that sound?

Yes, that would be great!

Without further ado, please let me start my duties.

R-Right now?

I'll do my best.

Um, for starters, I'll show you around the house.

S-Sure, please do...

Let's go to the 2nd floor first.

Please watch your step.

Sure.

This is my room.

This must be the center of the chaos?

I'll work until I can uncover the floor! Yes!

Uh, this was my parents' room, but...

It's pretty...

Maybe I'll let you use it.

It's an overly-large house...

...so for now, please start with the places vital for living.

Okay.

Here's the guest room, and the living room's next door.

I wonder what could be in here?

Don't open that!

That's why I said not to open it.

Please tell me a little faster.

Sniffle.

I'm totally embarrassed.

At least mushrooms weren't growing in them.

Well now! I'll start work with the kitchen, okay?

What would you like for dinner?

Um, I haven't gone shopping...

...so I thought I'd get delivery.

I'll make something using what's in the fridge.

I don't know if you can use anything.

This is okay. This one barely.

And this will have to be disposed of.

Suguru-sama, I see that you really like blue cheese?

I think I had a bite of that about three years ago.

Are you hungry, Suguru-sama?

I-I'm quite hungry.

In that case, I'll make something now.

I wonder what she's making?

T O N I G H T 'S M E N U

O Y A K O D O N

P I C K L E D C E L E R Y

W A K A M E M I S O S O U P

Wow.

I prepared it from things I found around...

...so there might not be enough, but...

Thanks!

This is good!

E-Excuse me.

Yes?

Would you like seconds?

No. Aren't you having any?

Out of the question!

I am merely a maid, so I will eat alone later.

For some reason, I don't feel that hungry anymore.

I'm done, thank you!

The elusive rare animal Tsuchinoko was seen today.

Details after these messages.

I'll take a bath and sleep.

You can stop working today, too, Mahoro-san.

Oh, brother.

I realize Mahoro-san is trying her best,

but this is mentally exhausting.

All she does is quietly stand by.

At this rate, I can't even use the bathroom freely.

I guess since she's an android, she isn't quite normal.

I will scrub your back.

M-Mahoro-san, that's enough work for today!

I cannot possibly rest...

...until my master is sleeping soundly.

This is my natural duty as a maid.

D-D-D-Duty?

Excuse me.

No more!

Suguru-sama, you must soak your shoulders, as well.

What is this?

Something smells really nice.

It's very...

Suguru-sama, please hold on!

What should I do? What should I do?

Say, Mommy?

Daddy's not coming home today, either?

Your father is very busy with work.

You're a good boy, so you can be patient, right?

Yeah!

Suguru... Suguru...

Suguru-sama...

Suguru-sama!

Mom...

Thank goodness...

I'm sorry.

I didn't notice the hot water affecting you.

I've failed as a maid.

That's not true.

It's not your fault I fainted.

I stayed in too long.

It's because I don't know anything except combat.

Maybe I really am not suited for this kind of work.

Just as Mahoro-san says, maybe she doesn't know anything.

Coming to a world of normal men, not knowing if she'd be accepted.

She must be incredibly uneasy.

Mahoro-san, wait here a second.

Suguru-sama?

I'm depending on you to look after this house.

T-Thank you so much!

I will do my very best for this house!

Um, Mahoro-san, since you'll be living with me from now on...

...I have a few suggestions.

Would you stop calling me “sama”?

You can just call me “san”.

And I want you to eat with me.

I think food would taste a lot better that way.

I lost my parents early...

...so you're not the only one who doesn't know very much.

That's why we should slowly make up the rules...

...for us to live together as time goes on.

Yes, Suguru-sama.

I mean Suguru-san.

Well, I'm going to school now.

Suguru-san!

Here! This is a lunch.

Thanks.

Do you have everything?

Do you have a handkerchief?

Yeah, you got one ready for me.

Well, I'm going now.

See you later!

Now, it's time to work!

Mahoro stops functioning in...

390 days.

satellite poem

It's sunny today, so I should dry the futon.

In the garden where Hydrangeas bloom.

It might rain tomorrow, so I'll dry it today.

I hope I can have a good dream with the scent of the sun.

If the futon is really soft, can it embrace you?

I wonder if it will embrace you softly and warmly.

Next Episode

Eighth grade, class four, the girl that showed up at Suguru Misato's house

the strange maid, what's a maid in this day and age anyway?

Maids are those things that show up in suspense shows, right?

Wait, could that girl be a technician?

She can do those kinds of things, and these kinds of things.

Misato, your virginity is in danger!

I've got it, that person is responsible for sure.
