I bet four overstuffed chocolate chunk cookies that Sakuya is gonna enjoy herself and win bigtime! (I'd originally say "win all the tickets" but I never seen japanese game centers do that)
I am more curious in whole owns the place. My wild guess is the Moriya Shrine, with a shrine maiden that is from outside world, these are highly plausible.
Wait a sec, why is China tagging along the Head Maid? Shouldn't she be guarding at the gate(Unless New China is used)? It's not like Sakuya needs manpower to fetch a mountain of groceries to feed a hungry ghost.

Ostensibly, because Sakuya wants someone to help her carry everything. Possibly aside from that, because she might be wanting to let China out after having piled on the (frequently deserved) brain stabbings. I mean, she's even letting China go out and play, spending more of her money, even after what happened last time.
Which, since these China things are so predictable, will likely somehow end in exactly the same way...
I'm holing out hope for this one, actually. Aki's already done the "hahaa Meiling you're so incompetent and wasteful of Sakuya's money!" bit with the ice cream. She REALLY needs something good to happen out of the blue, and I have a good feeling it's here.
If there's any activity a slacker and general waste of space is good at, it's video gaming, right?
Maniac Scarlet Devil Mansion. "Use YUKKUREMI with MICROWAVE OVEN" "Give BEANPASTE to SAKUYA" "What? This...is... ...WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!" "(R.I.P. Player 1)"

If it's video gaming, isn't Kaguya going to be loitering here, ready to destroy all challengers, since she never does anything else? Or Satori, mind-reading her way to victory?
... Actually, if it's Satori, she'd probably get beaten on, since Aki seems to like giving Satori way too much comeuppance, although that's only in relation to Flan.
Actually, I have a new prediction, which actually is somewhat different from last time: Meiling will happily play with her 500 yen, but Sakuya will get hooked on something she is terrible at, and will resort to ZA WARUDO to win, only to get kicked out by Rinnosuke for cheating. She will take out her frustrations by knifing China for introducing her to the game.
dudemang said: I don't think anyone would mind seeing a happy ending for Meiling. It's just, given that this is Life of Maid, it's plain not likely.
Meiling is definitely the Butt Monkey of this series. Butt monkeys are defined by the punishment they receive, whether they deserve it or not. ("Why does universe hate Waspinator?")
Still, unless they REALLY deserve it (a villain that people love to see get Humiliation Congas heaped on), sometimes the author DOES have to take time to pet the butt monkey (see post #502040), or the sympathy for the character gets overwhelming.
Sakuya, we all know you love Meiling. Don't be ashamed, lol. Underneath that scowl is a feeling of pure bliss resulting from the sight of Meiling's joy.
Gaw, just be honest with your feelings, Sakuya-san.
