Maid RPG or Meido RPG is a Japanese RPG system where one plays a maid. It uses a rules-light system, and typically plays something like an over-the-top comedy anime. It is notably the first originally Japanense pen and paper RPG to be translated and released in English. Next up, Zettai Reido! We hope.

Character generation runs on random tables which determine not only vital statistics (Athletics, Affection, Skill, Cunning, Luck, and Will, not bust size and shit), but also the relationship of the maid to her master and other bizarre quirks possessed by the maid, such as their preferred weapon. Quirks can be anything from "Has an Irish accent" to "Is a cyborg" to "Is actually the master's mistress".

The man responsible for the English translation frequently visited /tg/ to recruit playtesters, and the credits of the finished version include a thanks to "all the fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls" that helped during testing. It is now available for purchase as both a .pdf and in print from the English website.
