Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is a heartwarming and comedic anime series that follows the daily life of Miss Kobayashi, a 20-something-year-old computer programmer who becomes the unlikely owner of a dragon maid named Tooru. The story starts when Miss Kobayashi, after drinking too much on one of her business trips, stumbles upon Tooru in the forests near her apartment. Tooru, a powerful dragon from another dimension, is intrigued by Miss Kobayashi's drunken invitation to come live with her as her maid, and decides to take her up on it.

As Tooru begins to adjust to her new life as a human's servant, we see her struggle to understand the human world and its customs, all while trying to keep her true identity a secret. Along the way, she meets other dragons who have also taken on human forms and become enamored with the human world.

At its core, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is a show about how the simplest of things can bring joy and happiness into our lives. It's about finding friendship and love in unexpected places and seeing the beauty in those around us, regardless of where they come from or what they look like.

The show is full of charming and lovable characters, from the titular Miss Kobayashi to the mischievous and childlike Kanna, a young dragon who also comes to live with the group. We also get to learn more about Tooru's past and her relationships with other dragons, as well as see her grow and develop as she becomes more comfortable in her human form.

One of the highlights of the show is its humor, which is often goofy and absurd but never mean-spirited. The dragons' misunderstandings of human culture provide a lot of the laughs, but there are also running gags involving Tooru's love of maids and Kanna's obsession with cartoons.

But despite its lighthearted tone, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid also has some surprisingly poignant moments. We see characters deal with feelings of loneliness and isolation, as well as grappling with the challenge of trying to fit in when you feel like an outsider. The show also explores themes of identity and self-acceptance, as the dragons struggle to balance their dragon and human sides.

Visually, the show is a feast for the eyes. The character designs are colorful and expressive, and the animation is fluid and dynamic. Each dragon has a distinctive look and personality, from Tooru's scaly green exterior to the regal and elegant Lucoa.

Overall, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is a fun and heartwarming anime that's perfect for anyone looking for a light and enjoyable watch. Its focus on friendship, love, and acceptance provides a refreshing change of pace from more serious or action-packed shows, and its lovable cast of characters will stay with you long after the final episode.

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (28 episodes). The series first aired on January 11, 2017.
