What happens

Hanaukyo Maid Team (Japanese: 花右京メイド隊, Hepburn: Hanaukyō Meido Tai; lit. "Hanaukyō Maid Corps") is a Japanese manga series created by Morishige. Hanaukyo Maid Team is about a young boy, Taro Hanaukyo, who has inherited a vast family fortune and, more importantly, the hundreds of employees working at the family mansion. While dressed and referred to nominally as 'maids', there are discrete albeit sometimes unusual departments for most of the employees (including Defence, Science, Catering, etc.). Presumably the various extensive projects in the house pay for most of its expenses. The original anime, which aired as part of the omnibus program Anime Complex, was cut short when the series ran into production issues. Continuity was later rebooted for the new series Hanaukyo Maid Team: La Verite (Hanaukyō Maid Tai - La Verite in Japan). Many of the early episodes mirror each other closely, with some variations. Both anime versions use the same voice actors. The English La Verite anime was originally licensed by Geneon Entertainment in North America, but Sentai Filmworks acquired the license in 2016 after Geneon's license expired. Studio Ironcat licensed the manga in North America; Ironcat as of 2005 went out of business having only released the first three volumes of the manga in English. There are currently no plans for another company to pick up the license and release the remaining volumes. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
