Honorary Maids of London is a fanart book about The Great Ace Attorney featuring the characters in maid and butler costumes.
About
This is a full color zine featuring characters from The Great Ace Attorney in maid (and butler) outfits, with a significant emphasis on maid Ryunosuke. There are illustrations and comics.[1]
Honorary Maids of London was a project organized by Artist Black and consisted of artist contributors by invitation. When asked if the zine would feature any ships, the organizer said that they "could not physically stop people from drawing AsoRyuu"[2].
The project was announced May 11, 2022 on Twitter[3]. Preorders for the zine opened June 12, 2022, on bigcartel, and were slated to end June 30[4]. The pricing tiers were as follows:
- Main Course: Physical zine only
- Tea Time: Mini Standees, Fiberboard Coaster
- Full Course: Physical Zine, Mini Standees, Fiberboard Coaster
Preorders came with a die cut sticker of Maid Chuunosuke. Fans were given the option to have their orders shipped to their homes or available for pickup at Anime Expo 2022.
Physical copies were announced to be shipped starting July 18, 2022. PDF copies were released July 24, 2022[5]. The digital version of the zine was up for sale on Gumroad from June 24 to August 7, 2022[6]. Leftover coasters and more digital zines were put on sale on bigcartel from September 13 to September 20, 2022[7].
