How dead on arrival is this show?

>>152061526
I thought I would enjoy reading the manga I think the art style and the characters just made it very mediocre. Is it popular because of the yuribait?

Doesn't matter, it will be shit posted just like Hibikek.

>>152061574
It's not even popular, and it's yuri like Yuru Yuri, meaning there are gay characters but it never amounts to anything and just played for laughs.

>>152061574
Its popular because its Huge Tits and Breast Envy.

I don't know, it looks so boring from what I had seen which honestly isn't much but the premise sounded boring too so I don't know.

>>152061526
I don't fucking care, I will masturbate to this so much that my box of tissues will end up pregnant.

>>152061526
considering the surprisingly strong competition I'd say it's in ICU at the least.

>>152061574
Its huge tits, maids, and dragon girls.

i wanna suck on their horns

If you go into this series expecting drama, romance, and plot you will be disappointed.

If you're looking for slapstick humor, gags, and PLOT you will probably enjoy it.

>>152062037
>this series expecting drama, romance, and plot
Non-solfags are the worst.

>>152062037
There's really not much humor in the manga, it's more of a "comfy" show with simple SoL episodes, few jokes here and there and some racial introspecting.

I can't wait to see KyoAni's improvements.

>he thinks KyoAni won't find a way

Isn't this the first time a Trigger show will outsell a Kyoani one?

>>152062460
So this will be a much better Demi-chan then?

>>152063283
KlK already did it in 2013.

>>152063975
I mean on the same year, I thought Free aired in 2013?

>yuri
Very

>>152064008
KlK and KnK aired in the same season

>>152061526
Less sale than phantom shit confirmed

>>152061526
kyoani will make this the greatest anime ever made.

Just a few more hours until disappointment of the season.

ded

It's going to look extremely soft and sweet but ultimately taste of nothing.

>>152061574
Felt the same. I liked the first couple of chapters, but then the gimmick got old and it got boring fast. The characters look awful with the massive balloon tits (Iruru almost caused me to drop this before finishing the translated chapters), and even personality-wise the only character I found likable was Kobayashi.

>>152067226
Kobayashi is my least liked character. She's the typical straight man, and judging by the PVs she'll just be spouting one liners at every dumb "joke" Tooru makes. Honestly if it wasn't for the color and animation this anime would fit perfectly in the (shitty) early 00s era.

>>152064961
>Just a few more hours until disappointment of the season.
You are off by 24 hours I think.

She ended up being the mum to these refugees. Many of the dragons have mental problems from PTSD caused by centuries of war. War that never seem to end and didn't seem to even have a point.

KyoAni is copying Dogakobo copying KyoAni.

>manga mediocre
KyoAni has a reputation of turning mediocre manga into pure gold.

Never ceases to amaze me how stupid and biased some of you cunts are. How about waiting, watching the first three episodes and unbiasedly forming your own opinion before shooting you mouths off like fucking idiots.

The director said it gets interesting in episode 3. RIP.

>>152067615

Only with people who haven't read good comedic SoLs. K-ON is just as mediocre as the manga its adapted from.

>>152067622
>3 episodes
"It gets good on episode 3" is a shitty excuse. It needs to be good from episode 1.

>>152067615
Had, now I'm not sure

Last good KyoAni show was Amagi.

>>152067635
Whether or not K-On! is your cup of tea or not is beside the point, it is a great anime in terms of being successful and only a fool would deny it.

>>152067714
THAT is a very good point. We shall see then,
won't we?

>>152067803

Sure, but don't equate success to gold. One implies quality, the other does not.

>>152067822
Gold meaning wealth. K-On! made Kyoto Animation an awful lot of profits.

>>152067848

It's also used for quality, like gold medals.

>>152067629
>inb4 the director is talking about Kanna

>>152067868
Since the OP implied the possible failure of Dragon Maid, I thought my meaning was clear.
I guess I was mistaken.

>kyoani regularly makes boring source material into something BETTER
Delusional

>>152069734
They promoted a new episode director? Cool.

>>152069734
Weak, desu.

Even without the big boobs it's just another gimmicky concept "X but they're GIRLS!" otaku time killer. How many shows does that describe this season alone? People eat this shit up, though, and I plan to as well.

>>152061526

I'm looking forward to it.

>None of the cunts ITT have even read the manga.
>Talk shit like they know shit because of a studio.
>Almost every maid dragon thread will be like this.

I'm ready

>>152070347
I tried and lost interest after 15 or so chapters so I skimmed thru the rest for neat ecchi comedy. I wasn't disapointed, just wish there was more of it. Manga ain't any good unless you're a dirty pervert grasping for the only thing that gives you your lewd lesbian dragon fix.

>it's another studio wars thread

We need a ban on this shit like console wars threads on /v/.

>>152070381
>I tried and lost interest after 15 or so chapters.

Never understood why anons say that shit.

There's a mix between comedy and lewd with sudden serious mood changes that lead to the reader learning more about a character or how huge the difference is between humans and dragons. At least for me it keeps my interest and makes me want to know more.

>>152070763
Not him but I can see it not being that interesting for other people. The manga doesn't particularly excels in any of the things you mention. It's a decent time waster but I wouldn't feel sad if the manga gets cancelled tomorrow.

>>152070826
I would.
Every COOL manga is just so full of charm.

>>152069818
Phantom World WAS better than the source material.
The LN was complete edgelord shit.

>>152070926
I just want episode 2 to air, for Kanna.

KyoAni should stop with these comedy shows. Studios like Dogakobo do it better and KyoAni shines with more serious titles with quality others can't reach.

>>152071031
desu I would've prefered edgelord shit than the psychedelic snoozefest (what a combination) that was that fucking show

>>152061526
It's being overhyped to Jupiter and back. It's just a cute gag manga, but if you stayed in the threads you'll believe this was the second coming of christ.

>>152071080
>psychedelic snoozefest
I thought that was Flip Flappers.

>>152071107
The author has a very good reputation, that´s why some fans are eagerly awaiting it.

>using their own generic artstyle instead of the manga's
I'd still watch it but what a disappointment.

>>152071031
The edgelord shit only happens in the unadapted book though.
Before that it's just a generic fantasy LN.

>>152071031
They only adapted the first novel, it's basically just episodic shit and the plot begins at the end.

Wait, they're streaming it this night or tomorrow?

>>152071107
Overhyped? It barely has any threads and not many people seem to have high hopes

>>152071323
Tomorrow

>>152071334
After airing we will get 5 threads for shitposting that reach 500 posts for a day, then another more than 10 threads for shitposting about random reasons like every kyoAni's seasonal anime.

>>152071391
>seasonal anime
You make it sound as bad as seasonal waifu.

>>152071805
More like I make it sound as fun as seasonal waifu shitposting.
I always love season with kyoAni anime there since the shitposting would be fun especially sales thread.

>>152061526
It's a KyoAni show, it will get at least some attention.

>>152071334
How does having several maxed out threads every week not count has overhyped?

I predict that Maidragon will be generally liked by the time it's over but there will be a small but vocal group of haters as usual.

>>152071928
>Threads maxed out every week
>There hasn't been a single dedicated maid dragon thread

It's always something like "How can other studios compete with kyoani" and they post a picture of tooru's design sheet.

Then shitposting ensues because studio wars

>>152069734
Excited for Shinpei Sawa's episode, lets see how he fares at directing.

He was an assistant ep director on Hibike S2 episode 8. I guess he'll get a full episode on VEG.

>>152061526
Too much competition for them this season.

>>152069734
Pretty good staffs. I was hoping the 1st episode is storyboarded by Ishihara since he's good at introducing characters but this is fine too. Also can't wait for 3rd episode (muh Takemoto as the writer) and 4th episode (muh IshidateXOgawa) .

So it's the worst possible pile of turd?
Gag anime are always trash, recycling the same 4 jokes until vomit, and then they try to make up for it with some bland yuri pandering that goes nowhere

I really want to see Fafnir animated.

He hardly gets an attention in the manga either

>>152072657
Maybe he'll get some OC.

>>152072699
Let's hope.

I really want to see him playing games while being snug or him making one of the intense faces he does in the manga

>>152071980
So like Keijo?

>>152061526
What I hate about this kind of show/manga is that it goes pretty well at the start, with the intereactions between the main characters.

But Japanese have to ruin everything with harem antics dumping girls one after another and killing all the charm.

And I like harems, but they should be its own thing, not something you dump into everything.

When a manga with two characters go well don't fuck it adding a bunch of girls that doesn't add a shit.

>>152073135
Iruru is the best thing that happened to the manga in a while.
