Interlude: Weird Maid Cafe Themes
The Thinking Blog has a great article up about themed cafes that have sprung up since the invention of the maid cafe. There’s a vampire cafe, a ninja cafe, a glasses cafe (where all the staff…uh…wear glasses), a “lab coat” cafe (?! No shots of the inside of this one), a Christon Cafe (think your local Catholic church fused with a Starbucks), and my personal favorite, the “prison cafe.” (WTF, Japan?)
They also talk about butler cafes, particularly the well-known Swallowtail Cafe, featuring male butlers who cater to fujoshi clients. But if the theme is supposed to be “weird” cafe themes, I can’t believe they wouldn’t talk about cafes like B:Lily-Rose, a cafe whose theme is reverse traps– females dressing as male butlers (and also catering to fujoshi, if you were curious).
When I was in Japan I tried to find B:Lily-Rose, but I failed. NEXT TIME, GADGET.
“Missed it by that much,” did you?
But, but, ZOMG MEGANEKKO CAFE FTW!
