You Are Ms. Servant

Hito is your everyday Joe. A sophomore on summer break, one day he hears a knock at the door. It's a maid looking for work. When asked about skills, she spotlights her familiarity with knives. She's an assassin by trade, apparently. Hito resists at first but the way things end up is that she cleans for him and he cooks for her. Next thing, he's getting her set up in her room. She's eaten the special Katsu and the very special Tonkatsu sauce 😍. She AIN'T leaving.

YAMS is a 2024 Felix Film Studios release that is rated 7.08 on MAL. Based on a web manga, it is 1 season consisting of 12 23-minute English dubbed episodes with CC available. It's yet another anime that makes me wonder why Japanese kids don't seem to have parents. YAMS is arguably good. It probably crosses that threshold, just barely. I'm a generous grader, so many will not think it above average. In the realm of anime that is good, it's definitely well below average. It passes the time just fine, but it's nothing special.

Yokoya Hitoyoshi is, pretty much, a prototype Japanese-anime-pure-hearted-blushing-maiden-male-protagonist. In his middle school syndrome phase he was known as the 😡🔪 (Raging Knife). Yuki arrives in a maid outfit and she's working as a maid, but that was just her last cover. She's actually an assassin. A... lassassin. Their meetup makes more sense once you meet his dad, who makes a brief showing. Yokoya Riko is Hitoyosh's sister. She ADORES Yuki. Agemochitarou is a big super-chubby ginger cat. He's totally huggable.

Yuki isn't satisfied with just doing housework. She enrolls in school. This attracts other dangerous types to school, as well as creating lots of mystery around Hitoyoshi - suddenly, he's so interesting! One thing you'll learn in anime is that one assassin attracts more. Soon some other students and even some of the teachers seem very, very suspect. The only thing that can draw Yuki away from all the new school drama is Katsuda sauce. It's her kryptonite.

Yuki might know tons about killing, but she's otherwise innocent and knows nothing of everyday life and human relationships. She gets most of the laugh lines. "You're so cute! All you do is nibble, squeak, and get spooked like some kind of hamster boy," she says to Hitoyoshi, causing him to blush. Again. They go shopping: "There's nowhere to hide my knives in this outfit." They go to a movie: "I've only committed assassins in theaters. I've never actually watched a movie." They watch a zombie feature. She's mortified! "You can't kill them; they're already dead! I hate the stench of dead bodies!"

The art is pretty standard. People are drawn with simple features and a touch of hyper-fantasy Go BIG: big boobs, big eyes, big muscles, big colorful hair, big color-palettes. Backgrounds are simple, slightly muted, with structure to match our FL and lots of straight lines. There's scattered details that pop against the background of its minimized realism.

Overall, they fail to sell the romance and the attraction between the two. However, there are some worthy moments. In the opening of episode 11, he's questioning his feelings, and it's a nice scene. It's well acted, directed and written. The last two episodes are 2 of the best in the show. They are a tempo change into the emotional and introspective. Nevertheless, with the benefit of foreknowledge, I would probably skip this one.

It is very good anime. Its storyline is perfect. In my opinion it is a very good rom-com anime and it will make your time worth. I hope my reviews help you all to ignite a interest in your heart to watch this anime. The character sketch of this anime is fabulous, This anime have interesting and Engaging storyline. I don't want to give you spoilers but I want to make you understand about starting story this anime. In this anime there is a girl who is a contract killer but unfortunately her master died but her master told her before dying to get a job as a maid in Hitoyoshi Yokoya's to start a new life and to forget about past. From here the main story begins which shows how a contract killer who was emotionless fell in love with Hitoyoshi Yokoya and how they live together in one house. I hope my review and a small part of story which I gave you will ignite an intrest in your heart to watch this anime. Thank you all for reading my review and forgive me because I know I have done many Grametical in this review. THANKS, HAVE A GOOD DAY.

I binged episodes 1-8 in a single day, and it was an absolute delight! This anime masterfully blends romance, comedy, and slice-of-life, with a touch of fantasy. The story revolves around a charming dynamic between the characters, and Yuki absolutely steals the show. Her personality, paired with her adorable looks, reminded me so much of Yor Forger from Spy x Family-strong, elegant, and yet irresistibly cute.

The genre falls under romantic comedy with a hint of light drama, and the anime fits into the "shoujo" category, appealing to fans who love heartwarming relationships. While the plot might not be groundbreaking, its execution is captivating, making you root for the characters and their journey.

For anyone who enjoys lovable characters and a mix of humor and heartfelt moments, You Are Ms. Servant is a must-watch. Can't wait to dive into more episodes!

(14+) I liked this series primarily because of the female protagonist and two of the supporting female protagonists - didn't care a whole lot for the male lead. Some of their scenes were very funny (like the "life or death" love Ms Servant develops for a sauce condiment!) One of the female antagonist assassins in a supporting role is really pretty funny, and her interactions with the two leads once she switches goals is pretty epic. The dog they get is also great, and overall, this is a definite recommend - NOT because of the male lead, though!

I ENJOYED THE SERIES A LOT BUT I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS VERY LOW RATINGS . I'D RATE IT 8.8/10 . I COULDN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND SO FAR HOW IT DISSATISFIED THE AUDIENCE .THE 2nd ROM-COM ANIME I'VE EVER SEEN . I ENJOYED IT A LOT . I WANT A 2nd SEASON . I THINK IT MIGHT BE UNDERRATED AS MANY ANIMES WERE RELEASED IN OCTOBER 2024 AND OTHER AUDIENCE SEE THOSE ANIMES . BUT WHAT I'VE TO TELL IS THIS IS UNDERRATED . WELL BUT ANYHOW , I LIKED IT VERY MUCH . THIS IS MY FAVOURITE ROM-COM ANIME SO FAR . BUT LET'S HOPE IT COULD REACH OUT MANY PEOPLE IF 2nd SEASON RELEASES . BUT I'D RESPECT OTHERS OPINION ALSO .
