Subaru Saotome (五月女 珠昴, Saotome Subaru), also known as Subaru (すばる, Subaru) is an employee at Maid Latte. Like Honoka, she does not have a full-time job and makes a living from part-time work.
Appearance
Subaru has long green hair tied in a ponytail with her bangs parted on her right side of her face and moss green eyes. She wears oval glasses and, to her embarrassment, is believed to have rather small bust, allowing her to participate in the butler audition. She is usually seen wearing her maid outfit.
Personality
Subaru is a modest and serious girl. Like Misaki, she is a hard worker, and does her job well but does not often participate in the gossip sessions of the other maids, usually preferring to sit quietly at a table and listen. She considers Misaki to be a hard working individual. Subaru is also mature, calm, passive, rational and independent.
Background
Not much is known about her past, except that she has been working in Maid Latte before Misaki came and that she has another part-time job besides Maid Latte, as claimed by herself.
Plot
Subaru and Misaki during the footman audition
During summer, the Maid Latte employees have been invited by Satsuki's sister Nagisa to her Beach House, with Aoi and Takumi tagging along. The girls decide to help out at the resort by hosting a one-day Maid café event to attract customers. During the Footman Audition, Subaru partners with Misaki and they both pretend to be men for the sake of protecting Maid Latte. Subaru, however, is discovered halfway through the audition after she fails to change into her tailcoat in a minute which then they disqualified her for revealing that she was wearing a sarashi that covered her chest, which then revealed that she was a woman.
