戦国メイドカフェ

「外国人観光客と歴史好きな男女をターゲットにした同店は、戦国時代をテーマにしたメードカフェ・バー。戦国時代、織田信長や豊臣秀吉らを影で操っていた架空の武将「萌田のぷ長」の元に差し出された姫たちが、同武将の城(店)を守るために「武装メード」として上洛してくる武将(客)たちをもてなすという設定を設けているのが特徴。「武装メード」らは、メード服と着物をミックスしたようなコスチュームと甲冑(かっちゅう)を身に着け、「お返りなさいませ、お館さま・姫さま」「戦場にご出陣です。お館さまにご武運を」などのあいさつで来店客を迎える。」
さって、外国人は普通のメイド喫茶に入るのか、戦国メイド喫茶に入るのか投票結果で見てみよう。

Isnt those PDAs that the maids use to take orders in the store?

looks like it. i saw a cafe in shinjuku and the owner entertained his guests with all sorts of weird and wacked things.

?Its a strange mix of scary and hot at the same time..........?

I so have to go there on my trip coming up at the end of the year, i wonder if i can take in my swords and compare with theirs :P
Yes, I have decided, i must visit it!
Student
I'd really like to go. I've always admired the design of japanese armor and the history, plus hitting two birds with one stone is good under my books.

Prefer normal meido cafes but if they're crowded[as usual] I won't mind trying Sengoku meido cafe ^^;
Gundam/Mecha maids soon?

Normal maid cafe for me too... I'm actually planning to open one here in our area... I just don't know how well the culture here would accept it...
Computer science student
This just as style!!

Not a bad concept... but the pink armor and what look like small toy swords or wakizashis at best are kind of a joke. It could have been done better so for now, I think normal maid cafe wins but with it becoming so common, unique variations like this isn't bad. It just needs to be refined in order to be a winner!

That's actually not a bad idea. Arming the maids.

ahh it just doesn't seem to match... maid + sengoku... The props are nice... but the maids carrying the wakizashi and armor looks crappy...
They should make a cafe where ninja/samurai girls serve you... That would be awesome!

Problem would be finding a maid to serve you (if they are Ninja maids) Or one second you are sitting there then suddenly a hot coffee is in front of you. ninjaaaa-ha

normal maid cafe over that any day~ :)
They should do a Mecha Musume Maid cafe instead~
but then a Mech-theme maid cafe wouldn't be a "noral maid cafe" either.

I'm fine with the whole concept of adding armour to maid uniform but...
PINK?!?! WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE PINK!!!

I dunno...but the pink armor with the heart shape is just.. O_o

For a minute there I was expecting to see Date Masamune or Sanada Yukimura or even Shingen serve some Bento set or something. Lol! Got caught off guard at the mere mention of "Sengoku"
What a sight that would be...
But for the poll.. definitely a normal maid cafe..
Only Saber can pull of a maid dress + armor + sword... no one else.. Lol!

I would probably choose the sengoku maid cafe, but I think it would be even cooler if it was just a samurai-girl cafe. :D
Student
Well this is something new LOL
I think I'll go with the normal.

Being unique isn't necessarily good. I think this was not such a good idea, at least it doesn't appeal to me (and many others by the poll).
Just samurai girl or even school girl with swords is better than this anachronistic and somewhat jarring sengoku maid thing.
Student - IT
I have to agree. I mean the girls are cute... obviously. But, it doesn't really seem to fit together well. I'm sure the place will do well though.
Student
I'll stick with a normal maid cafe :>

Both for me. As I went to a @Home maid cafe in Akiba last year I would like to try this one since I love Japanese history and feudal Japan. Nippon banzai!!

I would visit it just to check it out in person, but I think it is kind of counter productive. A maid outfit is meant to be cute/sexy, but samurai armour is not. *shrug* Just my opinion on the subject, could be wrong though. =]

I really wouldn't care which one it is as long as it isn't the tsundere cafe. That one looked like it sucked. I think it comes down to whichever had better food.

Still haven't been to a maid cafe. But if I ever did go to one, I wouldn't mind this one. Especially if they serve non-Japanese speaking foreigners.

a sengoku Maid cafe would be awesome the reason is because I enjoyed Japanese History and Maids at the same time .
I've researching on samurais for quite sometime now and eager to learn Kendo one day . A perfect place to hang out in Japan

Nice a maid who can cut off your penis =_=

This sounds like an idea that went into the past and came out...as a Saturday Night Live sketch.
And now...SAMURAI MAIDO KAFE!!!
...the first shot you see is John Belushi in a maid costume, topknot, and of course, his trusty swords.
This link will probably not work for anyone other than USians but I figured I'd better give a link for those who don't know what I'm talking about...
