At Home Cafe (@home cafe) brings Akihabara to Arizona at Saboten Con 2019

All Japan

@home cafe’s top premium maids Hitomi, Chimu, and Mizukin brought authentic maid cafe service to Saboten Con in Arizona during 3-day event August 30 – September 2, 2019, at the Sheraton Grand Phoenix.

The Akihabara ambassadors performed a live concert and three sold-out maid cafe events for eager fans who traveled from all across the country to meet the maids in person and take special “cheki” photos together throughout the fun-filled weekend.

At the concert, Hitomi, Chimu, and Mizukin presented @home cafe’s new song “Aikome♡Forever”, which was released last month on YouTube.

“Aikome♡Forever” is @home cafe’s first new music video in 6 years and features 19 of the award-winning restaurant chain’s premium maids performing a special song for @home cafe’s 15th Anniversary.

The anniversary celebration also includes a new, limited edition 200-page “@home cafe 15th Anniversary Yearbook”, which was one of the many official goods which sold out during Saboten Con.

“I was so touched by the reaction from all the masters and princesses in Arizona,” said Hitomi, “and seeing all the smiles reminded me of the reasons I became a maid. I can’t wait to visit again! Moe moe kyun!”
