We’ve previously featured Candy Fruits, a well known Japanese maid costume and cosplay brand. Capitalizing on their popularity, the company has opened up its first maid themed establishment in Akihabara last August called “Refresh Club キャンディフルーツ リフレッシュクラブ where stressed out salarymen or otaku can relax enjoying the company of a maid.

The stores concept is that of providing the customer with a chance to relax the body and mind, something known as “Iyashikei” in Japan. Customers can do a variety of activities including watching DVDs, doing yoga, reflexology, having their ears cleaned or even playing Wii Fit – all with their specially trained maids of choice.

Ai Iijima 饭岛爱 is a 34 year old media personality and former AV star. Her real name is Mitsuko Ishii and in her late teens, she appeared on late night adult TV game shows as a “T-Back girl”, one of the models wearing a skimpy thong. Her stage name was chosen by a fan survey.
She later entered into the Adult Video business and became a big star but quit by the age of 20. After this, she crossed over into mainstream television variety shows, one of the few “talent” so far to successfully make such a transition. She is now an established celebrity on Japanese television, appearing in travel, lifestyle, game shows, and quiz shows.
