A must read. The combination of precise art and unique story about a maid in 19th century England is just what it takes to get a 10. One of the best series out there

Bronte, Austin, and 19th century lit fans will enjoy this! Pacing, storytelling are all well done. Amount of research and attention to detail really immerses the reader into Emma's world.

Beautiful art, good story (albeit a little cliched and predictable), interesting characters.
"but very unlike normal shoujo's"
This is a seinen manga and not shoujo.
This is a seinen manga and not shoujo.
The art isn't great? That's total nonsense. An insane amount of detail has gone into every tile. The author seems to have painstakingly researched what everything from linens to chandeliers looked like back then, and faithfully reproduced them in this manga. Everything else is topnotch as well.
Brilliant! Simply brilliant! A wonderful maid-tastic tale, really. There's romance, but very unlike normal shoujo's. The historical setting is accurately drawn. Don't miss this great manga and the adventures of Emma, a brave maid who falls in love against society boundaries in a time when form was all that mattered.
The art is so refined... funny how the Japanese can produce a great Victorian-era story.
I love this manga! You have to read it!^^
sweeeet sh*t
