The residents/defenders of the 9th Floor include cute maids both to go with the theme of a high-class "royal" residence and to serve as a kind of psychological warfare to further confuse and delay anyone who manages to fight their way through the 8th Floor.

The number of human-looking monsters elsewhere can be counted on one hand.

If one counts monsters that have a form similar to that of humans but clearly identifiable as non-human, like the Vampire Brides, then their human-like appearance is explained by their various background settings (for instance, the setting of Vampire Brides should be that they are created by a True Vampire from human victims).

There are a hundred thousand monsters in Nazarick. Less than a hundred of those have a human appearance for reasons unrelated to their settings.
