Yuri Is My Job!

This anime series is set in a business that is half café and half theatre. The school-age waitresses dress in the uniform of the fictional Liebe Girls Academy, an elite girls' boarding school, and play out the drama of their lives in front of the customers. Protagonist Hime Shiraki gives the impression of being the perfect young girl; pretty, helpful and sweet. That is an act though; really she only cares about herself. An incident in the opening episode sees her recruited onto the café's staff... her life and those around her are about to get more dramatic.

This series was okay; the sort of thing you watch then forget about. The lead may not be particularly likeable as the series starts but she becomes more sympathetic as the story progresses. The other characters grow on the viewer as well. Given the title it is hardly surprising that there are yuri elements although they are all fairly chaste with not much obvious fan service. The character designs are solid with all the main characters looking distinctive. Overall a decent enough series even if it isn't a must see.
