Etiquette for enjoying konkafe safely (a guide for fans)

Konkafe are spaces built on trust between cast and fans. To keep them comfortable for everyone and enjoy oshi-katsu long-term, let's review the basics.

Respect the shop's rules

Photo policies, pricing, time limits — rules differ by shop. Following the shop's rules is the number-one courtesy.

Don't ask for private contact details

Asking a cast for personal contact info (LINE, phone) is off-limits. Meetings happen at the shop. MaidLink also offers no private DMs — interactions stay in the open, an important principle for cast safety.

Support in moderation

Support is a feeling, not a competition or a way to show off. Enjoying it within your means, at your own pace, is the secret to sustaining oshi-katsu over time.

Don't intrude on a cast's private life

Don't pry into real names, addresses or off-shift plans. Hold both the wish to support your "oshi" on stage and respect for them as a person.

Same manners online

Comments and reactions on social media are the same as conduct at the shop. Words of support energize people, but excessive demands or abuse are unacceptable. MaidLink has reporting and blocking tools to protect a healthy community.

In short

Being a good fan means protecting your oshi. Each person who keeps good manners helps grow konkafe culture and the MaidLink community.
