I need you guys help and opinions...

by FurryRP » Wed Apr 01, 2009 12:49 pm

Well as the title says... yea i need you guy's thoughts on this.

One day i hope to open up a cafe or coffee bar.
Howevar this aint no ordinary coffee bar.

Remember the eps in doujin work where Najimi Worked in that catgirl cafe?

Well thats what i would like my theme to be like.
I sit around behind the bar and kitchen while these cute girls in there catgirl uniforms take orders and such.
I have some sketches and thoughts in my head of what i would like it to look like and be.
Of course all you guys from here can come anytime for free stuff...(maybe... :lol: )

Now the help from you guys i need are things like this...

1. Good Idea?
2. Will Anyone go for it?
3. Against any rules/laws?

and so on and so forth.

So Please any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Catgirls, traps, imoutos, otoutos, onee-sans and (female) senpais.

Your cafe will contain all of the above. I'd go there. :)

Be careful of bunny girls though, they are actually a copyright of Playboy Inc and you risk a law suit if you use the bunny girl likeness without paying royalties.

Hardest part would be getting females who would want to work there that the target audience would pay money for.

America isn't far off that with what they offer. Perhaps those maid cafes or something like them will turn up somewhat in Western countries eventually. Not that I'd go to one. My mother would disown me instantly.

hahaha thanks for your support guys.

Well with the bunny thing. It would def be catgirl not bunny.

Secondly i think they would work. Its pretty much like a normal cafe uniform except they get to wear a headband that haz little cat ears on them and on the back of their apron where they tie it up is a furry little tail.

I wonder if i should have some rooms in the back for some *hem* Private *hem* service? :lol:

All i really need is just the money to start it and a buisness partner who also knows how to run a buisness with me to take care more of the financial matters...

If you're going to provide service, looks like you need a place on Hindley Street. :P

a cat maid cafe sounds ok- no private rooms though- theyd attract too many attention if you want to keep things legal. personally, it sounds alright as long as the girls are covered up as decently (not too much flesh on show etcera)- normal cafe uniform with ears and tails works good- make it more easier for us women to come in for a cuppa or two without getting too offended. I just wouldnt go there if theres private rooms for certain kinds of .... service. Just giving you a female's point of view!

I think it'd be cool to have, but just remember that girls at maid cafes are paid pretty highly in japan AFAIK (compared to other places which take people of similar qualifications) Chances are you'd probably end up having to pay call center wages (about $20 an hour) to get anyone with decent looks to work there xD

Lmao if I hadn't already given up on this city (nay, this country) I'd be very interested to see how people would react to it :lol:

Hey, at least it isn't China, Russia, Britain, Africa, South America or Eastern Europe. This country still has far more merits than just about anywhere in the world. While Japan has its unique perks, it's got plenty of flaws.

Ohk well thanks to Ice for the female's view.
Yeah i was only messing around with the private room and service thing.

Well as for the uniforms, im thinking something like this...
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51aPOwmP0UL.jpg
or
http://www.partydomain.co.uk/d-commerce ... G10078.jpg
or
http://images.google.com.au/imgres?imgu ... N%26um%3D1

..... not sure if that last one works.

But yea i know that i would have to pay highly almost....also to go along with that im gonna hafta employ over 18's only i think.
Or maybe over 16's on the rego or something....

I'm kinda leaning towards the last costume example. just less pink fluffy bits- like on tail- the fluff on tail is a bit too much.... (maybe change colour of fluff or just have it more plainer) just a suggestion mind you!

I think the costumes give too much of an erotic vibe. If there were to be a costumed cafe in Adelaide I'd prefer it to go toward cute, not erotic.

I agree, although I suspect what the OP really wants is a catgirl strip club.
Mel Gibson's remake of The Life of Brian is nowhere near as funny as the original.

No, no and no. Too trashy looking. :?

Seifuku catgirls fill the requisite of cute vs erotic quite nicely. Also try French maid outfits with nekomimi features.

You're probably going to have to get your outfits custom made to suit each employee... so you'll want to be very careful who you hire. Also don't forget some catboys for those who are that way inclined, or female. :wink:

Pretty much everything Bazza said, with a little edible hat and atory thrown in for good measure :lol:

Sexy certainly doesn't do anything for me, and hasn't for ages (besides if I'm really that desperate I'd just look at... well any other girl in the city) I'd certainly pay to see a cute girl in adelaide though :D

If you really want them to wear cute maid outfits, you really need to go to a place like this (bad engrish enclosed):

this would probably be closer to what you're after :)

haha. well yea i was in a hurry so i couldn't find much.

http://candyfruit.com/

the only cat stuff i could find... :? http://www.candyfruit.com/english/0366/index.html

hmm... as for the furry tail i guess most may do.

Yea thanks for all you guys help so far.

sigh see the only problem with getting a costume to suit each waitress or waiter is if they quit and antoher person comes along...and it doesnt suit them...

well this is why im trying to work it out here before it goes ahead.

In Japan - A BIG "YES DO IT"
In Australia - Will will screw up in Adelaide. In Mel or Syd you might have a chance.
In US - Likely but not "HIGHLY"

In terms of finding the right people to do it (female mostly I believe :lol: )
In Japan - should be very easy
In Australia and US - Well I can tell you it might be a little hard.
