You know it's not everyday an anime can surprise someone. Kobayashi San no maid dragon is one of them. A nice change of pace from the normal or suspenseful kind using blood, and gore. Far from it. A tale of a woman named Kobayashi who befriends reluctantly two dragons in human form. Torhu, and Kanna. Torhu is a kind, yet often confused female dragon who believes that humans are worthless to the extreme. All except for her room mate employer Kobayashi since they first met. Torhu doesn't know why she is so different from the rest of the human race but mostly for the simple reason her benefactor is not estranged from the fact that she is a dragon.
The tale moves along in friendly ways when another younger dragon named Kanna comes into the picture. A much smaller, and innocent female who likes school, and her new friend who she faced off with on the school grounds for being too obnoxious to her class mates. Since then they became inseparable. There is a lot of questions in both Torhu, and Kanna's mind as to why Kobayashi has not said a thing to anyone or why their new friend is not afraid of them. They learn, live, experience, and often make mistakes along the way for which Torhu starts to realize just how important life is. Even it is being a maid for Kobayashi.
I think it is a wonderful series for its original story, plot, theme, and of course the enticing opening music to the episodes. It fits in our daily lives as to why we go through life with so many obstacles barring our way. Torhu, and Kanna must as well if they are to fit in without their horns, and tail to get in the way of success as well as trying to tame or rather domesticate another dragon who loves to play video games. A dragon named Fanfir. A legendary creature with vast power who would love nothing more than to wipe out our existence. The only thing that stops him is video games.
Trials, and tribulations follow these dragons where ever they go, and Torhu loves Kobayashi with every ounce of her immortal soul. So does Kanna in her own way. It teaches about friendship, love, sadness, mistakes, and successes in tiny amounts but it is enough for these dragons to continue on living among us even for a short while. Highly recommended to all ages young and old.
