9+ Anime Like The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious (Recommended)

The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious is by the same author as Jahy Sama! You can tell the author likes light brown, tanned girls which reflects in both anime’s main female characters.

In this anime, the plot is revolved around Lilith, the tanned maid, and Yuuri, the main blonde character for who Lilith works for. And often teases since Yuuri is so suspicious and cautious for no good reason.

Expect a wholesome but comedic and chilled setting to add to the sweet “diabetes” being put out during summer 2022 (like When Will Ayumu Make His Move).

Here’s some anime shows just like The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious.

 

1. Black Butler

Black Butler is closely related to The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious. Instead, Black Butler is a male-orientated anime series with less focus on female characters.

Ciel Phantomhive is the protagonist with an eye patch and one of the originals with this style in anime. His servant Sebastian works with him to do odd jobs (including murder) for the queen and government.

It’s based in London, UK, in the olden days.

Sebastian happens to be a demon who Ciel has a contract with, and the anime caters more to Yaoi fans for a lot of surface-level reasons.

2. Call Of The Night

Call Of The Night is an anime series with similarities to Monogatari for its vampires and supernatural characters (plus conversations and dialogue).

The subtle romance aspect and the relationship between the two main characters is what connects it to The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious.

Nazuna, as the female vampire is called usually hangs out at night doing her own thing. And likes to find people to suck blood from. Yamori, the teenager who’s struggling with sleep starts to form a relationship with this girl.

It touches on school, life, sleep, anxiety, stress, things that keep people up at night, and more in a slice of life format.

The music is special.

 

3. The Helpful Fox Senko San

The Helpful Fox Senko San is a classic slice of life series about a fox spirit who decides to help a certain man who’s depressed, anxious, and miserable because of his life and job.

These spirits have one goal in mind, and that’s to cleanse the depression from their “clients” in so many words.

Their bond, relationship, interactions, and conversations make the anime wholesome and chilled.

 

4. Skilled Teaser Takagi San

Takagi San is the main female character who loves to tease the boy she likes. And this is the setup for an anime that’s more wholesome, sweet, and laid back (aside from the comedy) than it is mature or grown-up.

It’s a dive into relationships for VERY young teenagers and how that stage in life can transition.

Takagi’s teasing is a lot like Lilith from The Maid I Hired Recently but it’s in a different context and setting.

 

5. The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!

The Great Jahy’s author is the same author behind The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious. That’s why both characters share skin tones, looks, and you can even say their eyes.

In this slice of life/comedy/supernatural series, Jahy, a powerful demon is forced to live on earth after her world is destroyed by a magical girl. And it all happens in a reverse-Isekai style.

Jahy spends most of her time struggling, fighting, and trying to reclaim what she’s lost, and that takes her down a road that eventually softens her up a bit and opens the door to a lot of personal changes and realizations.

 

6. When Will Ayumu Make His Move

This manga-adapted anime started airing earlier in July and is an anime that’s been anticipated since its 2021 announcement. The anime focuses on Ayumu Tanaka, a straightforward Shogi player.

He plays Shogi with his Senpai Urushi Yaotome who blushes a lot from Ayumu’s straightforwardness (like calling her cute and feeling no way about it).

His goal is to beat her at Shogi and then confess his feelings. Their chemistry can be compared to Lilith and Yuuri.

 

7. The Demon Girl Next Door

The Demon Girl Next Door is an anime by J.C Staff, focused on magical girls, demons, the clash between the two as far as history, and how they comically work together.

It’s all done in a familiar slice of life setting, with some comedy but no romance if comparing.

Shamiko, the girl who wakes up with horns and finds out she has demon blood decides to take on a magical girl who can do more than break the sound barrier, and they form a strange but wholesome friendship.

It gets slightly more serious over time.

 

8. Please Don’t Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro

Nagatoro loves teasing Senpai, just like Takagi and Lilith from The Maid I Hired. But in this case, it’s bullying which later becomes teasing, being playful, and then romance of sorts.

Some people are into that shit.

She’s also a tanned anime girl with a strikingly similar skin tone.

 

9. The Devil Is A Part Timer

Airing right now during Summer 2022 (the 2nd season), The Devil Is A Part Timer is an anime that breaks a lot of rules in the slice of life/Isekai genre.

The hero Amelia chases down Satan and almost kills him, forcing him and his companions to run and end up on earth blending in with the citizens.

She does the same.

Amelia wants to KILL Satan, but the anime takes a different turn and she’s forced to tolerate his presence.

With the 2nd season, a strange new kid comes into the picture to change up the plot and the direction of both characters, side characters, and the occasional action that comes with the series in general.
