Maidcore (Russian: Мейдкор, Japanese: メイドコア), also known as maid rock, is a microgenre of underground music and an online music community aesthetically defined by the artists' musical personas, an idiosyncratic cast of French maid-styled anime girls, some of them preexisting Internet meme characters. Popularized on the Runet website VK.com, the genre and subculture are influenced by the otaku subculture, anime and manga fandom and internet culture.
