The series is based on the manga MAIKO-SAN CHI NO MAKANAI-SAN by Aiko Koyama (Weekly Shonen Sunday). Set in the Geiko district of Kyoto, the protagonist Kiyo becomes a Makanai (person who cooks meals) at a house where Maiko (apprentice Geiko)live together. The story depicts the everyday life of Kiyo and Maiko Sumire, her childhood friend who came with her from Aomori to Kyoto, amid a vibrant world of Geiko and Maiko courtesans and delicious food. The comic won the 65th Shogakukan Manga Award and is a best-seller with over 2.7 million copies sold.
Alongside Kore-eda, Genki Kawamura(Confessions, Villain, Your Name, MIRAI) will be producing. Up-and-coming directors such as Megumi Tsuno(Ten Years Japan), Hiroshi Okuyama (Jesus), and Takuma Sato(Any Crybabies Around?) are directing individual episodes.
Nana Mori plays Kiyo, the Makanaiat the Maiko House, Natsuki Deguchi plays Sumire, who comes from Aomori with Kiyo and is believed to be a once-a-century talent as a Maiko. Aju Makita plays Ryoko, the high school daughter of the manager of the MaikoHouse. Keiko Matsuzaka plays Chiyo, the previous manager of the MaikoHouse who still plays a key role in its operation. Ai Hashimoto plays Momoko, the most popular Geiko. Mayu Matsuoka plays Yoshino, a former peer of Momoko who decides to return back to the path of the Geiko. Takako Tokiwa plays Azusa, the manager of the MaikoHouse and Ryoko's mother.
