Sentai Filmworks is releasing the crime-filled maid series Akiba Maid War on Blu-ray, sure to be a must-buy for fans of the blood-filled series.

In an alternate past, the otaku paradise of Akihabara was an unsavory hive of scum and villainy. One thing, however, is sort of the same: Maid Cafés! Except maids are the enforcers and assassins for corporate corruption… which is unfortunate for new maid Nagomi, who was too blinded by the cutesy uniforms and clever waitressing tricks to understand the darker reality of the maid business until she’d already joined the seemingly sweet Oinky Doink Café with Ranko Mannen. Now that’s not ketchup on table 5 as the carnage erupts in AKIBA MAID WAR!

The series was directed by Sōichi Masui and written by Yoshihiro Hiki, with character designs by Manabu Nii, and music by Yoshihiro Ike.
