Do they really contain more than just activities described as being unexciting? Well how about we take that exact question and spice it up with a bit of fantasy and imaginative writing? The result? Say hello to the wonderful sliceoflife anime titled Maid Dragon Dragons in a human world. Theyre powerful quirky quite bouncy indeed and one apparently wears a maid outfit. In the eyes of programmer Kobayashi and ours as well you can say the ordinary is becoming rather extraordinary... and quickly too Now a combination of oddness and conventionality might be a bizarre thing. But heres where I tell you how this show has succeeded in putting a refreshing twist to the sliceoflife genre. At first glance its only a fuzzy and cute display. True however theres more to this than just hearttugging sweetness. These dragons who have little knowledge about humans are given the chance to experience the goodness of human nature by meshing with the world of people. Pretty much everything in an everyday life. From what we do how we communicate what we enjoy and how we bond. In their eyes they are shown all these ordinary circumstances that we find as mundane and repetitive but to them they feel a different kind of specialness and become appreciate of it. Theyve grown attached to it. Like a reflection reminding us that we too can be grateful with an ordinary lifestyle. This together with Kobayashi who now has her life livened up by eccentricities speaks for a fun filled with many heartwarmers. And you know what? A fantasy daytoday full of dragons I can definitely appreciate such a quirky family. Yep. Life is such dullness? Such monotone? Lets erase all that Because the human world where this family resides in is a world brightened up by the colors of innocence and cartoony toons. Glee replaces humdrums and peculiarity replaces the usual. Every nooks and crannies envisioned from a combination of fantasy and sliceoflife drizzled with some comedy are animated with a lot of activity. Hey even the fan service got that treatment as well overemphasized or not. Theres the blobby highlights nailing down the childlike look while detailed eyes refresh them as the firebreathing beasts they rightfully are. And to soften everything up the pastelstyled backgrounds subdue these characters against an ordinary world. As their attachment to the world grows their expressions show both blissful and heartwarming growths. Which is something wonderful to see. Its even more precious in how theres so many emotions pronounced through the voice acting. Lively adorable loving. Each of this brings out Kobayashis and the dragons whole personality out to form them as a family. And finishing things off the soundtracks serve as an addition that harmonize the odd and normal together. While mostly bustling with lightheartedness the tempo can slow down into a gentle and mellow maturity paving way to a sincerity this show has its roots in. Oh plus the catchy opening too. Chu chu yeah So there you have it. Maid Dragon is a sliceoflife show that really knows how to unpack what its genre is all about. It reminds us about the positivity contained within the everyday setting that we live in. The mundane? Not anymore with these dragons. A life of no excitement has now transformed into something truly hearty and that is certainly a wonderful thing.
