An original project produced at studio P.A. Works (Ya Boy Kongming!), the Akiba Maid War anime was directed by Soichi Masui (Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai), with series composition by Yoshihiro Hiki and character designs by Manabu Nii (The Day I Became a God), who also served as chief animation director.
Sentai Filmworks, which simulcast the anime on HIDIVE as it aired from October 7 to December 23, describes the series as such:
In the spring of 1999, bright-eyed Nagomi Wahira moves to Akihabara with dreams of joining a maid café. She quickly dons an apron at café Ton Tokoton, AKA the Oinky Doink Café, but adjusting to life in the big city isn’t easy. Paired with the dour Ranko who never smiles, Nagomi must do her best to elevate the Oinky Doink Café over all other maid cafés vying for top ranking, but she soon discovers not everything is as it seems amid the frills and thrills of the maid cafés of Akihabara…
