Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid

 Haven't watched many anime over past few months due to real life commitments, but finally give this series called Kobayashi San Chi no Maid Dragon a watch. Slice of Life is not exactly my cup of tea,  given the similarity of this series with a particular anime that I used to watch, Kobayashi's Maid Dragon is surprisingly an easy watch.

Kobayashi San Chi no Maid Dragon or Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is what Nyaruko will be if the main casts are swapped from Cosmic Horrors into Dragons. This sort of series had a main premise is the mundane's protagonists daily life turned into an exciting one with a devoted waifu from another universe living with them. 

In Kobayashi's Maid Dragon, the main protagonist, Miss Kobayashi got a Dragon waifu named Tohru who turned herself into devoted maid, coming from parallel side of the world and helped herself to live in with Kobayashi after a fateful meeting. Kobayashi Maid Dragon selling point had to be the Dragons casts just like Nyaruko who are extraplanar beings turning themselves into Humans to enjoy the entertainments that Japanese Pop Culture industry had to offer because the latter is superior after all. Overall I can still stomach Kobayashi Maid Dragon despite my aversion to Slice of Life and It doesn't have Pop Culture jokes that Nyaruko had, because the Dragon casts are quite amusing especially Lucoa with her Onee-san antics. As such I will continue watching Kobayashi Maid Dragon's Second Season as well as keeping a tab for the new animation project which apparently will be around on 2025.
