Lol funny preview.

I wonder if this will be a full show (as the author's other works have been shorts). Looking forward to it though Very Happy

woke up to youtube alerting me about this and had nothing but smiles after watching the preview. I have a lot of faith in KyoAni that this will be really entertaining

Wow, I have been following this manga for a while now, and I am highly surprised that Kyoto Animation will tackle this one. It's especially surprising seeing how the source material falls squarely in the yuri genre. Sure, it's fairly mild, but there is some definite girl--on-girl crushing going on, and Kyoto Animation has a reputation of not doing yuri, period.

So will I finally see the day that Kyoto Animation tackles an actual yuri story? Or will they pussy out and resort to more bait-and-switch-lesbian antics like they do with Hibike! Euphonium? Only time will tell...

That rap got my attention. I am ready for Takemoto's brand of comedy! Cool

KyoAni with not-KyoAni style character design... Seriously, maybe Tooru isn't looking the same, but Kobayashi is totally Cool Kyou Shinja design.

Well, how long that was, like... five years?

Definitely looking forward to seeing this one because not only is it animated by KyoAni but it may also have Yuri as a core element. Very Happy

"Kobayashi, a single office lady who likes maids"

"Tohru, a dragon girl who loves Kobayashi and comes from another world"

So is this a yuri or isn't it? Confused
I didn't see the manga tagged under the "Yuri" genre, but these profile bios seem to imply otherwise.

Ye it's pretty much yuri. So far it hasn't really developed but touru and kobayashi def like each other. It probably won't go anywhere tho

Daisuke Ono seems like a great choice for Fafnir.

That rap track was funny and the PV made me hype for this show even more. It is about time we have an office lady as the main character for a change and her dragon maid is so cute.
