The cast from the Maid Sama! anime series are reuniting for a brand-new drama CD, the series' first in four years. The CD is bundled with the special edition of the Kaichō wa Maid-sama! Marriage volume released on Friday.
The drama CD stars Ayumi Fujimura as Misaki Ayuzawa, Nobuhiko Okamoto as Takumi Usui, Yoshimasa Hosoya as Ryūnosuke Kurosaki, Takuma Terashima as Ikuto Sarashina, Mitsuhiro Ichiki as Naoya Shirakawa, Aki Toyosaki as Satsuki Hyōdō, and Hiromi Igarashi as Aoi Hyōdō. Manga creator Hiro Fujiwara wrote the story scenarios titled "Misaki Drinking Nightmare" and "Unforgettable Hotel Suite Memories."
The Marriage volume takes place after the wedding of Misaki and Usui. The volume contains seven chapters, including the "Yuki wa Jigoku ni Ochiru no ka" cross-over chapter.

Viz Media published omnibus versions of the Maid Sama! manga in English with new translations, and it describes the story:
As if being class president of a predominantly male high school wasn't hard enough, Misaki Ayuzawa has a major secret - she works at a maid cafe after school! How is she supposed to keep her image of being ultra smart, strong, and overachieving intact once school heartthrob Takumi Usui discovers her double life?!Can Misaki trust Usui to keep her secret from the rest of the kids at school? And why the heck is he always showing up at the maid cafe? Maybe she should start taking him seriously when he says he likes her - especially when he throws in an unexpected kiss!
Fujiwara launched the manga in LaLa in 2006, and ended it in 2013. Hakusensha published 18 compiled book volumes for the manga. Tokyopop published eight volumes of the manga before the company shut down its North American publishing division in 2011. Viz Media's omnibus releases began in 2015, and compiles two volumes in each release. The ninth and final omnibus volume shipped last August.
Maid Sama! inspired a 26-episode television anime series from J.C. Staff in 2010, and Sentai Filmworks released the series on DVD in North America.
