The manga Maid Sama! by Hiro Fujiwara was first published, introducing the story that would later be adapted into an anime.
The Maid Sama! anime adaptation premiered in Japan, bringing the manga's story to a television audience.
The anime series Maid Sama! concluded its broadcast after completing its run.
Season 1 was one of my favorite anime binges in a long time. Such a fun mix of thoughtfulness (movement through time), silliness, and cool scenes (The Ruins of The King's Tomb). I can't wait to watch season 2. I know it's airing as I write this, but I like taking in entire seasons at once if I can manage it.
