YMMV / UzaMaid: Our Maid Is Way Too Annoying!

Go To

  • Accidental Innuendo: The title of the seventh episode "My Maid Doesn't Come Anymore."
  • Captain Obvious Reveal: Fighter pilots need exceptional 20/20 vision. In a flashback to Tsubame leaving the JSDF, the camera conspicuously avoids showing her right eye. In the present, she wears an eyepatch over that same eye. It doesn't take a genius to figure out why she stopped being a pilot long before she reveals the answer.
  • Common Knowledge: UzaMaid! is often dismissed as "that show glorifying the lolicon maid." Tsubame is neither the protagonist nor are her antics portrayed in a positive light. Misha — the actual protagonist — spends most of her time creeped out by Tsubame's advancesnote  and loudly berating her for being a pervert, even as she tries to exploit Tsubame's culinary skills for her own ends. The manga has some very sketchy illustrations at the beginning (when it was published in a since-cancelled yuri magazine), but those were toned down in later chapters and for the anime adaptation, so it's not as lurid as its reputation suggests either.
  • Crosses the Line Twice: Tsubame's Comedic Lolicon antics have crossed the line so many times.
  • Draco in Leather Pants: Tsubame receives this treatment quite often despite her being genuinely creepy. Case in point? In the seventh episode of the anime, many fans criticized Misha for firing Tsubameā€¦ even though Tsubame admits to liking girls that hadn't been through their menstruation cycle yet.
  • Like You Would Really Do It: Come on, would you really think that Tsubame would leave Misha at any cost?
  • Memetic Molester:
    • Tsubame, a physically-imposing, unrepentant Comedic Lolicon who has a habit of trailing Misha in disguise.
    • Ukai Midori, despite it being largely unintentional. Given how she kidnapped Mimika while running from the police and was shown feeling up a young girl in a flashback as part of her "research," it doesn't help her case much.
  • Memetic Mutation: "I'm garbage, so I'm waiting to be picked up with the other garbage." Explanation 
  • Paranoia Fuel: The fact that Tsubame could be anywhere, thanks to her stealthy military training and expertise at disguising herself.
  • Squick:
    • Chapter one, published in a since-defunct yuri magazine, has some panels of Misha bathing that are way more detailed than they need to be. The manga switched to a seinen magazine after that, which ironically made it less risque. The digital English release wisely took an airbrush to the offending panels to hide as much as they could behind layers of fake steam.
    • Several moments with Tsubame are this, but one Imagine Spot in particular involves Tsubame fantasizing about kissing Misha as they were slurping on an udon noodle.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: One of the anime's strong points is the effort put into its animation. The camerawork in the scene where Misha scrambles downstairs from her room in episode 1 is commendable.
