What you get when you combine a hot meido with a detective brain? a Maid Detective of course!
Japan’s TV Asahi has a new show that features something REALLY interesting – a maid who works undercover as a detective. And get this: it’s called… Maid Detective!
Featuring upcoming actress and singer Saki Fukuda, 18, in the starring role, Maid Detective is the story of a maid named Aoi Wakatsuki works for Toshiaki Kaido, a detective for the Kyoto Prefectural Police. Kaido asks his maid to infiltrate stately mansions to conduct investigations, since for one reason or another the police can’t operate in the open. Wakatsuki knows the ways of the criminal element since she once led a feared all-female street gang – hey, where’s THAT show?
Anyway, reality TV it ain’t. What it is, is decent entertainment that combines the action of a crime drama, the appeal of maids and a dash of comedic flair: Wakatsuki’s climactic weekly tag line, “Allow me to clean up the dirt from this evil!”
Said “cleaning” is done with a wicked-looking “cutie cleaner”, which sort of looks like a Swiffer on steroids.
In a brilliant promotional move, EMI Music Japan will be releasing Fukuda’s new limited edition single with a free miniature cutie cleaner cellphone charm, along with a ticket to the CD’s release event on August 12.
