Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon �林�ん��メイドラゴン) is a Slice of Life Urban Fantasy manga by Cool-Kyou Shinsha. It began serialization in the Seinen magazine Monthly Action in 2013.Kobayashi was just a hard-working, otaku software programmer living in Tokyo until one night when she got as drunk as a skunk. In her soused-up stupor, she climbed a mountain, came across a wounded dragon named Tohru, and pulled a giant, divine sword out of her, saving her life. Before going home, Kobayashi told Tohru she could come live with her if she wanted. When she wakes up the next day, remembering nothing, she rushes off to work and runs into Tohru outside her apartment door. Having heard Kobayashi's drunken rants about maids, Tohru magically transforms into a mostly-human girl in a maid outfit, and declares that she will now devote her life to being Kobayashi's maid. Knowing nothing about maids or human society, of course.In 2016, it was licensed by Seven Seas Entertainment and began release in North America in October of the same year.The populatity of the work would spawn several 4-Koma style Spin-Offs focusing on secondary characters: Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Kanna's Daily Life drawn by Kimura Mitsuhiro in December 2016 Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Elma's Office Lady Diary drawn by Kazama Ayami in August 2017 Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon: Lucoa wa Boku no xx Desu (Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Lucoa is my xx) drawn by Utamaro in January 2019 Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Fafnir the Recluse drawn by Nobuyoshi Zamurai in November 2020All the spin-offs except Lucoa's were also licensed by Seven Seas Entertainment.A 13-episode anime adaptation produced by Kyoto Animation ran during the winter 2017 anime season. It was directed by Yasuhiro Takemoto, with Yuka Yamada serving as series composer, Miku Kadowaki serving as character designer, and Nobuaki Maruki serving as chief animation director. A second season was announced in February 2019 under the title Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid Snote The "S" stands for "Super Supreme Second Life Start". While the future of the next season was up in the air for a while, in light of several of the show's key staff members (including director Yasuhiro Takemoto) being among the many victims of the 2019 arson attack on Kyoto Animation, it eventually premiered in July 2021, now being directed by Tatsuya Ishihara, with Takemoto being posthumously credited as Series Director. An ONA series titled Minidora (Mini Dragon) was released in April 2021 in the lead-up to season 2. Both seasons are available for worldwide streaming on Crunchyroll with subtitles, and with an English Dub on FUNimation here. A Latin American dub was also released.A Vertical Scrolling Shooter game titled Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Burst Forth!! Choro-gon☆Breath released on Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch on March 24, 2022 in Japan, with English language support; the game was licensed by Aksys Games and released in North America on August 25, 2022. | |

Elemental Absorption | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_10490c51 | comment |
Elemental Absorption: Dragons can regain mana by absorbing their respective elements. This can lead to cute moments like Kanna having her own personal outlet so she can plug in her tail or Ilulu carrying around a lighter for snacks while at work. They can also use the ambient mana that Tohru produces, but Ilulu claims that it tastes awful. | |

Thinking Up Portals | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_1240ff57 | comment |
When Elma first debuts she challenges Tohru to a battle in Kobayashi's home. However Tohru manages to trick Elma by invoking this, opening up a portal to where they were supposed to fight and after Elma steps through she closes the portal. Elma finds she's on another continent and spends all day returning back to Kobayashi's house. | |

Tamer and Chaster: Zigzagged. The anime is, on average, significantly less risque than the manga and focuses more on the themes of found family, but at the same time Kyoto Animation added fanservice to scenes where none existed in the manga (most prominently seen in the Beach Episode, where they had Lucoa come along). | |

Chapter 10/the first half of the OVA, which involves a chocolate made by Tohru that's laced with a Love Potion that affects humans. While Tohru does decide against giving it to her after a stern warning, Kobayashi still ends up having some of it accidentally when Kanna gets her hands on the chocolate, with the young dragon then giving a piece to Kobayashi. | |

Comic-Book Time: Even though both the anime and Kanna's Daily Life are pretty clear about the passage of time (with the former covering 1 1/2 years as of the end of season 2 and the latter covering 2 1/4 years at the end of volume 9), none of the child characters ever move up to higher grades or show any signs of getting older. | |

Home Field Advantage | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_19ba91b5 | comment |
Home Field Advantage: Inverted when Tohru breaks into a Harmony-faction run temple that is enchanted to keep dragons from shifting into their true forms while inside. Most dragons tend to only take on their human form for short periods of time (both as a matter of pride and because it can be uncomfortable), but Tohru has been almost exclusively in human form since the start of the series, giving her a distinct advantage when the fighting starts. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_1a237409 | comment |
Order Versus Chaos: Dragon society is divided into three factions: those who seek to keep the world in order, those who seek destruction and power, and those who seek neither. Tohru, Fafnir, and Ilulu are part of the chaos faction. Elma is part of the order faction. Lucoa is part of the spectator faction. Kanna is part of the Kanna faction. | |

World of Badass: Not the current setting, but the world Tohru and the others come from. In episode 2, Tohru and Kanna have an awesome DBZ-like battle with cool explosions, battle aura, and power beams. They call it playing/roughhousing, since they're only at what is considered a human level in their world. | |

Tonight, Someone Kisses: The trailer for the OVA has a shot where it looks like Kobayashi and Tohru are about to kiss. In reality, Kobayashi was telling Tohru to come closer so she could give a drunken rant about her maid outfit. Of course, anyone who had read the relevant chapter of the manga (chapter 10 for those interested) would know the outcome ahead of time. | |

The Cameo | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Several from other Cool-kyou Shinsha works. Miki is shown to own a crepe stand in chapter 7, has a photo in Tohru's cookbook in chapter 10, and is on the friends list of Takiya's handheld in chapter 54. Several references are made to Ojojojo, the most obvious of which being that Kobayashi works for the company that Haru founded at the end of that series.note Haru did not directly found Kobayashi's particular department, but rather it already existed and was bought out by her A photo of Haru appears on the newspaper that Kobayashi was reading in chapter 13, plus she and Aki would later both be mentioned (indirectly) by Takiya in chapter 55. Gramps can be seen watching Kanna skateboard in chapter 62. Haru shows up properly in chapter 83 (though her eyes are never shown) to address Elma's new work proposal, and then finally has her full face visible in chapter 122 in a flashback to when a drunken Kobayashi ran into her and Tsurezure at a bar. The Horiuchi Butchery from RaButa appears in chapter 25. Tohru also mentioned that she learned about Christmas from Mr Horiuchi (either Harundo or his father). Frau from Peach Boy Riverside makes appearances in various forms of merchandise, ranging from a keychain Kanna got from Kobayashi after her first day of school to a stuffed animal hot water bottle cover that the Kobayashis pick up when they buy a new kotatsu in Kanna's Daily Life. The actual Frau also shows up at Comiket. Cool-kyou Shinsha's hentai Author Avatar can also be seen standing right behind Frau at Comiket. Houka from Metsuko ni Yoroshiku can be seen as a member of the "Dragon Busters" in chapter 43 of the manga and the fourth episode of the second season, wielding her signature steel pipe. Kanna is also reading Peach Boy Riverside at the beginning of the manga version. | |

The first two times cause Shouta to dream that he's being crushed by a giant ball, then suffocated by a bear's paw. The third time has him dream about fighting a sumo wrestler, indirectly feeling up Lucoa. | |

Stealth Pun: It's only on-screen for an instant at a time but it appears that Kobayashi specializes in the programming language Python. Not so stealth after the Running Gag in the second season, mentioning the language they use at the company being… unusual. Python is indeed a divisive language, and is particularly reviled in Japan, where its competitor Ruby was developed. | |

The Friends Who Never Hang | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_1ed73929 | comment |
The Friends Who Never Hang: The dragon characters frequently interact as a group but, on their own, usually only socialize with Tohru or the humans of their acquaintance. Chapter 61, however, has the normally very anti-social Fafnir seek out Lucoa, who's typically only seen with either Tohru or Shouta, for help as a model for the manga he wants to draw. The Kanna's Daily Life spinoff rectifies this with Kanna. In the main series, she interacts primarily with the others in the Kobayashi household and her classmates. The spinoff features chapters such as she and Saikawa finding Fafnir's secret arcade and bribing Lucoa for help. The main series also has a chapter of Elma taking Kanna, Saikawa, and Shouta fishing and one where Kanna asks her fellow dragons for their opinions when figuring out which dragon faction she should side with. Chapter 6 of Elma's spinoff opens with her hanging out with Lucoa at a festival, but it becomes more about her babysitting Kanna and Ilulu. | |

Emotional Maturity Is Physical Maturity | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_200422a4 | comment |
Emotional Maturity Is Physical Maturity: Each of the dragons seen through the series that transform into humans have made it clear that their human appearances are tied less to their actual equivalent dragon age and more to their mental age, as even taking Proportional Aging into account, Lucoa (one of the oldest beings in the series) is quite youthful due to her motherly-yet-childish mindset and Damocles (who while decently old compared to his daughter Tohru and other young adult dragons is actually a lot younger than Lucoa and her peers) is rather elderly due to his stern yet somewhat reasonable aura of authority. This is especially prominent with Ilulu, who while very clearly is not a child and is outright stated to be around Tohru's age, is so mentally and emotionally stunted due to losing her parents and lacking Parental Substitutes to fill the void, she has such poor shapeshifting skill that her child-like looks perfectly represent her womanchild personality. | |

Muggles Do It Better: Minor example. Tohru and Kanna mention that Earth's vegetables and rice are superior to what is found in their world due to some magic called "selective breeding". | |

Chekhov's Gun: At the end of the Azad arc Kobayashi displays a huge sum of magical power dwelling within her and later in chapter 95 Shouta innocoussly reveals that wizards are born with the high magical reserve while normal humans have to work their way up to that level. Kobayashi briefly ponders then why was she able to do so much. | |

Fantastic Fruits and Vegetables: During the cooking contest with Kobayashi, Tohru brings back something from her world that looks fruit-like, but which has teeth and bites like an animal. Tohru goes back to her dimension to get some ingredients for an omurice meal Kobayashi asked for earlier. Some of the items she retrieves include fruits from that region. | |

In the manga, Tohru used magic to make the necessary paperwork for Kanna to go to school. The anime cut out this scene, instead opting for a sequence of the two of them and Kobayashi going out to buy school supplies, with Fafnir and Tohru's house-hunting in the next episode explaining how dragons deal with paperwork. | |

Sir Not-Appearing-in-This-Trailer: Despite being one of the earliest dragons introduced in-series, Fafnir doesn't appear on any of the manga covers (until about 6 volumes after his debut), nor does he get any character art in the anime to himself. The most he got for a long time was a signed shikishi that comes as a bonus with volume 4 of the anime's Blu-Ray release, and even that is shared with Takiya. He did, however, get a spin off manga dedicated to his side of things. | |

It would have been peaceful if Tohru didn't grind her teeth as she slept. Poor Kobayashi. Played straight at the end of episode 1 (minus Tohru's short Flashback Nightmare). | |

Go Through Me | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_25208c30 | comment |
Go Through Me: Kobayashi does this for Ilulu when she's attacked by Clemene. Despite the rule that dragons are not supposed to harm people on Earth, Clemene just swats her aside. It does solidify Ilulu's Heel–Face Turn though, leading her to do the same thing for Kobayashi immediately after. It still doesn't make Clemene hesitate though. Instead, his thanking the gods for his good luck ends up summoning a very angry Tohru, who proceeds to beat him within an inch of his life for hurting Kobayashi. Taketo also does this for Ilulu when they encounter a group of thugs in Chapter 89, with Ilulu experiencing the similar feelings that she had during the Clemene incident when Taketo protected her. | |

Most bystanders seem to be utterly oblivious to the actions that any of the dragons take, like when Tohru used inhuman strength and speed to stop a purse snatcher, or when she fired a massive Wave-Motion Gun in broad daylight that blew away storm clouds while in full dragon form. They do notice the horns, but everyone just passes that off as cosplaying. It's later explained as being caused by "cognitive inhibition" magic on the part of the dragons. | |

Chapter 70 features a toy store called TOY"S" PLUS (with the P in PLUS backwards). Chapter 59 has Elma enjoy Priky (Pocky) and Maji biscuits (Meiji). Some of the books shown in chapter 52 of Kanna's Daily Life include Erugon and Porry Hatter. In chapter 79 Tohru and Ilulu go to a ANI QRO (UNI QLO) store. | |

Shapeshifter Baggage: Played with. Dragons are capable of using magic to alter their size and (with enough skill) take on human form, with the excess mass being converted into mana. While this doesn't cause any weight problems, Tohru compares the feeling of all that compressed magic with wearing a suit that's several sizes too small. | |

Magic from Technology: Inverted. The programming language used at Kobayashi's office is modeled after the series' Formulaic Magic (and is close enough that Kobayashi can pass a high level magic exam without studying). That said, programming does not actually have any magic powers since Earth lacks a Background Magic Field, though whether or not someone like Elma (who is both a coder and capable of using magic) could cast a spell with it is unspecified. | |

Sex Sells | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_36215b80 | comment |
Sex Sells: This is the entire reason why Fafnir asked Lucoa to model for one of his doujinshis, because someone on an MMO told him that they're supposed to feature a lewd, indecent woman. While he fails to sell any due to his art style, hers sell out, with this being the implied reason judging by Shouta's reaction to a copy. Subverted in Kanna's Daily Life. Lucoa becomes the mascot for a farm she had been volunteering at, but she was chosen for being cute rather than sexy. It's also justified, since you couldn't ask for a better mascot for produce than a literal (former) goddess of agriculture. | |

Shapeshifter Default Form: Played With in that the human forms the dragons normally appear in are indeed their true forms just as much as their draconic form forms. It's explained as it being what their essence would look like if they were born as humans, IE a cute/beautiful form to dragons means a cute/beautiful form to humans. Basically while they can change species they have no control over what they look like. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: In chapter 34 of Elma's Office Lady Diary Tohru has made Kanna and Saikawa matching outfits for their trip to the zoo. The reasons are two girls dressed identically will help find one if one is missing by having a reference to show people, or because they are in matching outfits they will be more easily remembered if their chaperone is separated from them and needs to find them. | |

Never Gets Fat | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_3a468835 | comment |
Never Gets Fat: Dragons can eat ridiculous amounts of food without putting on a single pound, though this likely ties into Shapeshifter Baggage given the sheer size of their true forms. Two of Elma's coworkers express jealousy over her ability to chow down at an all you can eat buffet without gaining weight since both of them were on diets. | |

Vocal Dissonance | |

Vocal Dissonance: The dragons keep their voices regardless of which form they're in, which means there are times where a young woman's voice will be coming out of a two-story tall dragon. | |

In Chapter 21, after the Curb-Stomp Battle, the dragons decide to have a match between themselves. Their vast superhuman abilities turn the relatively modest sport of dodgeball into what amounts to an epic battle with massive amounts of property destruction... which gets fixed in a jiffy (and bystanders have their memories erased) through magic afterwards. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Once Kanna moves in with her and Tohru, Kobayashi quickly realizes her apartment is too small for all three of them, especially since she only has one bedroom. Rather than have Tohru use her magic to make the apartment Bigger on the Inside, which she could probably do, Kobayashi simply pays for them to move into a bigger apartment with two bedrooms. Lucoa's extremely skimpy swimwear gets her dragged away for overexposure twice, and in the second DVD special, her "Dragon Milk Cow" cosplay even gets her arrested for indecent exposure. Tohru has noted that Kobayashi's drunken antics have taken a toll on her health. | |

Establishing Series Moment | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_41c08e5 | comment |
Establishing Series Moment: The very first scene of the anime shows Kobayashi waking up one morning with a hangover and getting ready for work at her Soul-Crushing Desk Job, which would make you think this'll be another slice of life series... Except Kobayashi's morning routine is intercut with an ENORMOUS F**K YOU DRAGON waking up in the countryside and flying into the city. When she opens her door, the dragon, which is easily as tall as her apartment building, roars right in Kobayashi's face before transforming into a blonde-haired girl in a maid outfit, telling Kobayashi she's there to start working as her live-in maid as thanks for saving her life the previous night during a drunken bender. Believing she's still asleep in bed and dreaming, Kobayashi turns down her offer, but quickly changes her mind when she realizes that no, it's not a dream and she's late for work, asking the overjoyed dragon to fly her there. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Tohru and all the Urban Fantasy hijinks she brings with her. | |

Beach Episode | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_44f6517d | comment |
Beach Episode: Kobayashi, Tohru and Kanna visit the beach in Chapter 16/the first half of Episode 7. Shouta and Lucoa join them in the anime. While the anime version adds some traditional beach antics and fanservice, it's mostly an introspective discussion about family and adulthood. Another trip to the beach happens in Chapter 100. The big differences between this one is that not only do Elma and Ilulu also join in (along with Shouta and Lucoa in the manga version), but also thanks to an accident, Kobayashi is spending the day as a man. | |

Gory Discretion Shot | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_49f20c6a | comment |
Gory Discretion Shot: Played with during Tohru's fight with Clemene in the anime, where the camera angle and foliage prevent us from seeing what seems to be Tohru crushing Clemene's head, although we can hear it... until it turns out that Tohru didn't kill him, just roughed him up (in the dragon sense, putting him near death, since dragons have a Healing Factor), erased his memory of the events, and cut off his horn. A much straighter example comes when Fafnir gets Lucoa to pose for his manga art, as his curse scenes require a body being horrifically mutilated in various ways, and Lucoa is the only person he knows who's skilled enough at Voluntary Transformation to replicate the visuals. To repay his faith in her, she puts her body through tons of intentional Body Horror that the audience never gets a clear image of, the first time being a Shadow Discretion Shot of her contorting her limbs and splitting her head off, while the next three "poses" switch to scenes showing normal objects that provide decent implied images of what her horrific body alterations might look like. | |

Weredragon | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_4be1f279 | comment |
Weredragon: The dragons are capable of changing between three forms. Their dragon form is their natural form, with various different appearances depending of the dragon. They can also adopt a mostly human form that retains some aspects of their dragon form, primarily their tails and horns, with the option of manifesting wings; their scales likewise shape-shift into clothing in this form. The third form is a completely human one, retaining only the scales-turned-clothing; Ilulu can't properly take this form as she has trouble hiding her claws and tail. Lucoa explains it as shifting their essence from how they naturally appear as dragons to how they would naturally appear as humans, but Fafnir's debut and Ilulu's difficulties imply they can alter their human form's appearance based on preference and experience. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_4e7c4536 | comment |
Wham Line: The first chapter of Elma's Office Lady Diary has a line on the second-to-last page that casts her previous interactions with Tohru in a very different light. Chapter 96 of the main series has another one involving Elma when she's complimenting Tohru on her cooking and reveals that she's in love with her. In the climax of Chapter 97 when Kobayashi is riding on Tohru's dragon form for a private chat she asks how Tohru feels about her. Tohru of course tells Kobayashi that she loves her. Kobayashi's response: | |

Wallbonking: Justified example when Fafnir is playing a Dark Souls Expy, only for Takiya to cover his eyes in response to a drunk Kobayashi stripping Tohru. The game character is then shown walking into and repetedly swinging his sword at the wall of a hallway due to him being unable to see the screen. | |

Deadpan Door Shut | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_4ffcb8d6 | comment |
Deadpan Door Shut: Tohru invites her friends over for a visit. She barely opens the door wide enough before noticing that Fafnir showed up in his Monstrous Humanoid form and immediately shuts the door in a heartbeat before politely excusing herself outside to remedy the situation. Not to say that Kobayashi and Takiya hadn't noticed anyway. | |

What Is This Thing You Call "Love"? | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_5028baf2 | comment |
What Is This Thing You Call "Love"?: Dragons have a very simplistic view on interpersonal relationships since they tend to be a solitary species. Things like romance or familial bonds are completely foreign to them, and it's specifically stated that those who express a desire for such things learned it from mimicing humans. One particular example of this would be when Ilulu gets a warm feeling in her chest after getting a headpat from Taketo and mistakenly believing that she's going into heat. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: At the beginning of episode 5, Tohru blasts a couple of birds that were pulling on the laundry she hung out to dry. Said blast presumably destroys the birds, along with the clothing, and the balcony, though it seems she fixes it after the opening credits are done. A minor running gag in Elma's Office Lady Diary is that Tohru will try to kill Elma for anything the latter does with Kobayshi that she doesn't approve of. Examples include: taking Kobayashi to a mixer, letting Kobayashi get drunk (and ending up in Australia), and giving Tohru new meal ideas that Tohru herself ruins by trying to serve her tail. It pretty much stops after the spinoff reaches the point in the timeline where chapter 64 of the main manga takes place, though. | |

The Coats Are Off | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_50d2ca43 | comment |
The Coats Are Off: In chapter 64, about a third of the way through Tohru and Elma's practice fight, they remove their outermost layers of clothing (and, for some reason, Tohru takes off her hairpiece), before resuming their battle. Considering how much more aggressive Elma gets immediately afterwards, it's obvious it was meant to maximize their movement. | |

We Used to Be Friends | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_51a3ba7 | comment |
We Used to Be Friends: Tohru and Elma traveled together for several decades before they began to hate each other. The outright malice between them didn't occur until Tohru grew disgusted with Elma abandoning her ideals for the sake of food and burned her palace to the ground in retaliation. That said, Kobayashi is convinced that they're more Vitriolic Best Buds than arch rivals (and Elma's dream in the first chapter of her Spin-Off hints that she would like things to go back to how they used to be). | |

"Magic Time" takes place while Kobayashi and Shouta are taking the wizard exams. "Molting Time" happens during the events of chapter 85, with Kanna becoming close to one of the Tohru clones. | |

Horrible Camping Trip: Chapter 59 has Elma chaperoning a picnic trip involving Kanna, Saikawa, and Shouta (although the tent does suggest that they were spending the night there). The typical problems of camping trips affect Elma (getting lost in the woods looking for the kids after they accompany Shouta with his mana research without informing her; having a run-in with a bear), only with her eventually going into full Dragon mode out of frustration, with Kanna and Shouta having to prevent Saikawa from seeing this side of Elma. | |

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_5663a595 | comment |
Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: Due to the chapters being adapted out of order, Lucoa and Fafnir checking up on Tohru during the dodgeball chapter loses most of its meaning. In the manga, it happened right after the whole debacle with Tohru's father, but it happened beforehand in the anime. When Tohru's father takes her back home in the season 1 finale, Kobayashi makes no effort to ask the other dragons (outside of Kanna) for help despite having grown close to them over the course of the season. In the manga the event takes place much earlier (the end of the second volume), when Fafnir and Lucoa had only barely been introduced, while Elma had not yet even appeared. Due to the change of how Kanna gets her hands on the chocolate that Tohru made, the anime adaptation of the Valentine's Day chapter leaves out the crucial plot point of how the Love Potion had no effect when consumed by a dragon (in the manga, Kobayashi is unaware of this, and ends up eating some of the chocolate when offered by Kanna because she assumed that if Kanna's eating it without any odd effects, it would be safe for her to eat as well). In the manga, Kobayashi first learning about Tohru and Elma's past friendship and Ilulu meeting Saikawa were Synchronous Episodes. The anime places the former two episodes after the latter, so Kobayashi's comment about running into Elma seems to come out of nowhere. Tohru is shown trying to teach both Kanna and Ilulu how to use the perception blocking spell in the anime despite an anime-original line while Ilulu was job hunting establishing that she had already learned it on her own. It's unclear how Kanna managed to fly everywhere without being seen in dragon form in the anime during her trip to New York (which includes landing on Liberty Island in broad daylight), especially since she doesn't start learning perception blocking until the following episode. The manga lacks this issue since the two events happen in reverse order there. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Tohru's less than stellar view of humans (Kobayashi being the exception, of course) comes up multiple times, but it slowly dies down as she adjusts to living on Earth. Other dragons also show signs of this, but it only really gets focus in Ilulu's character arc. Interestingly, Lucoa never shows any signs of racism (most likely due to the fact that she has spent the most time directly interacting with humans and advancing their development). | |

Adaptational Modesty | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_580be152 | comment |
Adaptational Modesty: In the anime, (episode 3), the Imagine Spot scene where Kanna and Tohru licked each other clean was pixellated out, in the manga (chapter 11), it wasn't (even though genitals and nipples weren't shown). In the anime, Kanna and Tohru had their clothes on when they meditated to gain (even more) superpowers (episode 5), in the manga (chapter 18), they hadn't (again, their nipples and genitals were covered by hair). In the second episode of Dragon Maid S, when Kobayashi wakes up to see Kanna sleeping with her during the period where Ilulu turns her into a man, Kanna is seen in her usual yellow nightgown. In the manga (chapter 37), she is shown completely naked (again, no genital or nipples were shown). When Taketo first gives Ilulu her work uniform, she starts getting changed right in the middle of the store before he freaks out. In the manga, she's shown from the front with nothing but bandages covering her nipples, while the anime shows her from behind. When Kanna first arrived in New York City in the manga, her panties were visible during the establishing shot of the Statue of Liberty. In the anime version of the scene, Kanna's dress fully covers her underwear. | |

After Tohru showed up in retaliation for him hurting Kobayashi, Clemene tried calling Elma for help. It's far more likely that — if Elma had shown up — she might have struck an Enemy Mine situation with Tohru and been conflicted instead due to her own relationship with Kobayashi. | |

Friendly Enemy | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_5aa8d3d8 | comment |
Friendly Enemy: Tohru and Elma were like this in the backstory, having become close friends despite being members of opposing dragon factions. Their friendship has long since deteriorated into a fierce rivalry by the time the story starts due to personal issues (mainly related to Elma's eating habits), albeit one with strong Vitriolic Best Buds undertones and they end up reigniting their friendship later on. It's apparently inheritable. Tohru and Kanna's fathers (both high ranking chaos dragons) are shown to not have any problem going barhopping with Elma's grandmother (second in command of the entire harmony faction). | |

Meaningful Background Event: In chapter 62 where Kanna runs away to New York, while playing with her new friend Chloe, Tohru can be spotted watching her in the background of one panel. It's drawn small enough that you might not notice until the chapter end bonus page in the volume release points it out. As Kobayashi is walking home in Chapter 97, Shin's human form is walking right alongside her. You could easily mistake them for a random passerby the first time around. | |

Language of Magic: The series crosses this over with Formulaic Magic and E.T.

Coding doesn't have any magical effects though, since Earth doesn't have enough ambient mana for spells to be cast. | |

Holy Is Not Safe: Holy weapons are completely non-judgmental in who they hurt, with Tohru mentioned that the sword that pierced her back would have Mind Raped any mortal who touched it (Kobayashi was only able to remove it because she's an atheist, and also quite drunk on sake by the time she found Tohru.). Also, the one named character shown wielding one was a blatant racist trying to bring about a war. | |

Fake Wizardry: Played for Laughs when Tohru and Kanna mistake a spoon bending illusion on the TV for actual magic. They spend the rest of the chapter trying to learn how to do it (with a stereotypical martial arts training montage). It's not that it's more powerful than their own magic (Tohru is practically a full blown Reality Warper), but their pride as dragons doesn't let them accept that humans can do something that they can't. | |

The Seven Mysteries | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_5f6b941c | comment |
The Seven Mysteries: One chapter in Kanna's Daily Life features Kanna and her friends visiting their school at night to investigate its possible mysteries, with the ending suggesting that there actually is a spirit haunting the school, with it taking the form of Saikawa, who was sick that night, when it was with the girls. | |

Portmantitle: The "Maid Dragon" bit in the kana of the Japanese title is read "Meidoragon". Exaggerated with the BD special, Kobayashi-san chi no OODragon. The OO serves as a blank, and the audience is presented with things like Bandragon, New Zealandragon, Mermaidragon, Avocadoragon, and Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Doragon. | |

Cheeky Mouth: Happens in the anime adaptation especially for characters further back in a scene. The anime generally sticks to front shots of speaking characters. Profile shots and many characters in the background however end up falling into this trope. | |

Perception Filter | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_61459062 | comment |
Perception Filter: Dragons are able to prevent their presence from being perceived by humans' senses through "cognitive inhibition"; it's implied to be some kind of magic that all dragons are capable of, though apparently they have to train themselves in its use. Kanna can't use it yet, for example. | |

Do You Want to Copulate? | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_614a4e11 | comment |
Do You Want to Copulate?: Tohru almost immediately professes her love for Kobayashi, then clarifies with "I mean sexually!" After Kanna and Saikawa's kiss gets interrupted, Kanna mentions in the manga omake "I wanted to *** her." The last two words were muted in the anime.note Some translators suggest that the censored dialogue was about Kanna wanting to lick Saikawa. In which case, it might be a form of Deliberate Values Dissonance as dragons view licking each other the same way that a Japanese person would view washing someone's back. The Funimation dub of this scene has most of Kanna's dialogue muted save for the last two words, "dragon style". When asked what she wants to do following her Heel–Face Turn, Ilulu's response is "I wanna breed with Kobayashi." Subverted in chapter 81, when Ilulu thinks that she's going into heat around Takeo and gets confused when she realizes that isn't what she's feeling. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: The butterfly seen in episode 2 is an owl butterfly, which would place the field somewhere in Central or South America (which is roughly the opposite side of the planet from Japan). Played with in Episode 10 of the second season. The second segment has Tohru showing that she was watching over Kanna the entire time the latter had run away to New York, highlighting scenes where she was in the background. Going back to these specific scenes in the episode will reveal that Tohru was there. This expands on the similar occurence in chapter 62 of the manga, which the episode is based on: there the chapter bonus pointed out a single panel with Tohru in the background, and going back to the page the panel is from shows Tohru is indeed there. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: Invoked in Elma's Office Lady Diary when in chapter 34 Elma, Saikawa, and Kanna are at the zoo. When some goats sense Elma's hunger aura, they get frightened and one is willing to lay before her to be eaten to save its bretheren. Elma yells that this isn't needed and finds some snacks to quell her hunger. | |

Background Magic Field | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_649b0880 | comment |
Background Magic Field: It's mentioned during Kanna's introduction that Earth is lacking in ambient mana (unlike the other world). While Tohru and Lucoa are able to produce their own, the other dragons have to convert other forms of energy (like electricity from outlets or fire from gas stoves) in order to recharge themselves.note They can use the excess that Tohru and Lucoa produce, but it tastes terrible. | |

In the Blu-ray shorts, Lucoa's first two appearances end with her getting arrested for indecent exposure. When she turns up a third time, Kobayashi asks if it's going to happen again and Lucoa responds "That sort of joke isn't funny if you do it more than twice." It happens again, and it's still funny. | |

When Tohru undresses a sick Kobayashi, the nipples of her non-existing breasts are shown. In the chapter about Ilulu in heat we see her and Tooru's nipples. | |

Human Outside, Alien Inside: Downplayed. Dragons use magic to take on a more or less human form, but things like their metabolism and blood pressure are vastly different from humans. This ends up becoming an issue for Elma when she attends a fasting dojo in her spin-off, and needs Lucoa to come along and fudge her test results so they won't realize that anything is out of the ordinary. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_6aab3ca0 | comment |
Shockingly Expensive Bill: Downplayed; when Tohru explains to Kobayashi about how dragons get energy, the topic of how Kanna gets energy through plugging her tail to the electric outlet causes Tohru to realize that's why their electric bill was running high. When Kobyashi saw the price tag for the backpack Kanna wanted, she sarcastically asked the clerk if it was made of gold. Gets subverted in an early chapter of Elma's Office Lady Diary when she and a couple of her OL coworkers visit an all-you-can-eat buffet for lunch. Elma stacks up so many plates that her coworkers are nervous about getting one of these, but the staff don't offer any bill at all - because they are banned from ever coming back. Also gets parodied later in Elma's Office Lady Diary when she wants to order some icecream that is usually limited to local release in a region far from where she works. Initially she refuses to use her dragon form to travel, so she decides to have it delivered. Then she sees the price of delivery and the time it would take to arrive.

Meaningful Echo: When Kobayashi tries to help Ilulu overcome her Tragic Bigotry towards humans in chapter 38, the person says to Kobayashi "You're trying to trick me." When all is said and done at the end of the chapter, the person tearfully hugs Kobayashi and asks "Can you trick me?" "A two-year sentence is a mere blink of an eye". Tohru says this to Elma when rescuing her from her Arranged Marriage in a direct reference to their previous discussion about Japan's laws against polygamy, making the whole thing an oblique Love Confession. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance: In the manga, Ilulu's doll that her human friends gave her is never even hinted at until long after her Heel–Face Turn. In the anime, it's seen multiple times beforehand in flashbacks as early as the season 2 premier. | |

Altar Diplomacy | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_7294b403 | comment |
Altar Diplomacy: Despite what they name would have you believe, the Harmony faction is not a single unified organization but rather a loose collection of political entities. As a result, they often take part in Arranged Marriages to maintain peaceful alliances with one another. | |

VoluntaryTransformation | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_72bc71c4 | comment |
A much straighter example comes when Fafnir gets Lucoa to pose for his manga art, as his curse scenes require a body being horrifically mutilated in various ways, and Lucoa is the only person he knows who's skilled enough at Voluntary Transformation to replicate the visuals. To repay his faith in her, she puts her body through tons of intentional Body Horror that the audience never gets a clear image of, the first time being a Shadow Discretion Shot of her contorting her limbs and splitting her head off, while the next three "poses" switch to scenes showing normal objects that provide decent implied images of what her horrific body alterations might look like. | |

Once More, with Clarity | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_7374ab13 | comment |
Once More, with Clarity: The scene where Kobayashi and Tohru meet is shown three times. The first time in chapter 2 only shows Tohru in dragon form and with only the loosest amount of details (since Kobayashi is still suffering from a hangover while remembering it). The second time in chapter 32 shows it in much greater detail, such as why Kobayashi got so drunk, the sword wound on Tohru's back, and the full scope of the conversation that went down while Tohru is in human form. Then it's visited a third time in chapter 58 when the reader finally sees the circumstances behind how and why Tohru was wounded. | |

Both Order and Chaos are Dangerous | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_754d4507 | comment |
Both Order and Chaos are Dangerous: Within the "Order" faction are dragons who go out of their ways to cause strife among the humans, such as by demanding Human Sacrifices to solve problems they could easily amend, others who abuse human laws to make themselves revered as gods, some who just want the excuse to lawfully kill Chaos dragons, and some who are borderline Lawful Stupid. Dragons in the "Chaos" faction include Knights Templar who think that Humans Are the Real Monsters who kill their friends and family, many who object to humans labelling dragons as Always Chaotic Evil, Social Darwinists who think that dragons are never morally fallible as long as they can kill anyone who tries to stop them, and many who are simply Chaotic Evil or Chaotic Stupid. | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_794f3589 | comment |
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: In the manga, Tohru used magic to make the necessary paperwork for Kanna to go to school. The anime cut out this scene, instead opting for a sequence of the two of them and Kobayashi going out to buy school supplies, with Fafnir and Tohru's house-hunting in the next episode explaining how dragons deal with paperwork. In The Stinger for the dodgeball chapter, Tohru explained that she put a shell of magic around the ball to keep it from breaking while they were playing. The anime cut this out, leading to a minor case of Fridge Logic for the viewer. In the manga, the Hot Springs Episode comes after Ilulu's attack on Tohru, with Takiya specifically suggesting the trip because he knew something heavy had happened and wanted to give the others a vacation to ease their minds, as well as maintaining the sense of community between the group. Since Ilulu didn't show up in the first season of the anime, the OVA simply removes that part and has Takiya use the community explanation. | |

The Nose Knows: When Elma joins Kobayashi's office to work, Tohru can smell the other dragon on Miss Kobayashi and accuses her of cheating on her. Tohru is able to track down Kanna and Saikawa when they get lost in Kanna's Daily Life by following Kobayashi's scent on Kanna's backpack charm. In the main series, Ilulu does this at Kobayashi's suggestion in order to find the owner of a lost doll. However, the rain washes away the scent before she can find them. | |

Taking the Fight Outside: Between Tohru and Elma When Elma first debuts she challenges Tohru to a battle in Kobayashi's home. However Tohru manages to trick Elma by invoking this, opening up a portal to where they were supposed to fight and after Elma steps through she closes the portal. Elma finds she's on another continent and spends all day returning back to Kobayashi's house. While the main cast are on a train, Tohru and Elma start bickering again for no reason and look like they're about to tear each other apart, to which Lucoa tells them to fight outside. | |

Entertainingly Wrong: Saikawa and some others outside of the main cast are under the impression that Kobayashi is Kanna's mother. This is not an unreasonable assumption. Kanna lives in Kobayashi's home, goes by "Kanna Kobayashi" at school, and Kobayashi is a Parental Substitute to Kanna. Further, Kobayashi doesn't really argue against the description, even as she's shown to dislike it, and she herself notes she's old enough that some of her classmates have children of their own. Saikawa does note some inconsistencies in that, such as Kanna calling her mom "Kobayashi" and referring to their maid as "Lady" Tohru, but is so overwhelmed by Kanna's cuteness that she never pursues this line of thought. | |

Kobayashi does this for Ilulu when she's attacked by Clemene. Despite the rule that dragons are not supposed to harm people on Earth, Clemene just swats her aside. It does solidify Ilulu's Heel–Face Turn though, leading her to do the same thing for Kobayashi immediately after. It still doesn't make Clemene hesitate though. Instead, his thanking the gods for his good luck ends up summoning a very angry Tohru, who proceeds to beat him within an inch of his life for hurting Kobayashi. | |

Bait-and-Switch: In a chapter of Kanna's Daily Life where Kanna, after learning Ilulu's Gender Bender spell, accidentally casts it on Saikawa, one panel has a exterior shot of a restroom with Saikawa screaming inside, suggesting that she has noticed a "thing" that she's not supposed to have. Instead, the scream was due to her breaking one of the stall doors as she was opening it (with the spell, due to Kanna's inexperience, giving her some masculine traits rather than changing her anatomy). In Chapter 100, during Tohru and Elma's contest on who can get a male Kobayashi to beat her heart faster, both of them eventually try to do this by going all nude... only for them to transform into their dragon forms. | |

Partial Transformation: Dragons with a sufficient level of skill (i.e. everyone that isn't Ilulu) can freely alter how many draconic attributes they show while in human form. It's implied that letting more of their true self out makes their human bodies less constraining, given that Tohru, Kanna, and Ilulu always have their tails out when they don't need to keep up the masquerade. | |

Eyes Are Mental: The dragons keep their reptilian pupils when they take on human form, though the distribution of color on the iris changes (instead of a darker color outlining the pupil it becomes a gradient from top to bottom). Lucoa is an exception to the rule, though that's probably because she was originally a goddess. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: In Chapters 74 and 75, it is revealed Kanna was tricked into playing with the a powerful magical item by Azad, a human wizard ally of her father's resulting in her banishment, and the trickster knew because of her history with other pranks, her trying to pass off blame to someone else would be ignored. Now, at the present time, Kanna meets the trickster and secretly records their conversation when he gloats about his actions, how he hates all dragon kind, and is playing both dragon factions against each other. Kanna records the whole thing on her tape recorder and when Kobayashi and Tohru arrive in the nearby battlefield where a battle is about to happen, sends the message to them by her cellphone, destroying his reputation on both sides. | |

Black Blood: Downplayed. The blood from the wound that Tohru had when she first met Kobayashi was black, but the blood sent flying when Kobayashi pulled out the sword was dark red. Truth in Television, as blood turns a green-black color when it dries, implying that Tohru had that sword stuck in her for a while. | |

Sleep Cute | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_975ba595 | comment |
Sleep Cute: Kanna, a lot. Especially the part where she tries to find a place to sleep. In fact, she herself says that it is one of her three favourite things to do in her PV for Season 2. After Tohru and Kobayashi get the neighbors to quiet down, Kobayashi falls asleep on the couch, and then Tohru does this to Kobayashi... only for the sound of Tohru's teeth grinding to wake her up. A variant happens in Kanna's Daily Life: Kobayashi and Tohru discover how soft and cozy Kanna's fur is when she's in her dragon form, and both of them doze off on her. Kanna, on the other hand, does not find it so charming. | |

Tickle Torture: Saikawa mercilessly tickles Ilulu's stomach in an attempt to figure out why there's valentine's candy sitting out with a note on it, after Kanna invites her over. Kanna is out getting ingredients to make chocolate with at this point, and Ilulu knows nothing. When Kanna gets back and clears things up, Saikawa apologizes, as Ilulu expresses her annoyance. | |

The only exception to this rule is Elma, who is instead paired up with food. | |

Crippling Overspecialization: The company Kobayashi, Takiya, and Elma work for has a hard time getting new employees because they use a personal in-house programing system, meaning anyone who comes in will have to spend a lot of time learning a language they can't use in any other job meaning they would probably be stuck at the company for their entire career. It's later revealed the programming language they use was made by Mages for Mages. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Elma's true reason for following Tohru to Earth (reigniting their friendship) was hinted at way back in her first appearance when she said she was going to bring her back to the other world. Not kill, not defeat; bring back. During the anime verion of Elma and Tohru's falling out, the final clash makes it look like they're kissing. Elma comments that the programming language their company uses was easy to learn despite having not even known what a computer was when she started learning hints at the reveal that it's actually modeled after the series' magic system, since she would already have a familiarity with it. In yet another hint towards the magic=programming language reveal, the words "Hello, World" flash across Kanna's eye when she learns English. When Ilulu goes into heat, Tohru gives Kobayashi examples of the various ways that dragons reproduce. One of them is the only fashioned way of two dragons coming across each other in the wild and breeding. The two dragons shown there look like stylized versions of Tohru and Elma, setting up the eventual reveal that Elma is in love with Tohru. The holy sword that initially stabbed Tohru gaining sentience is briefly hinted at in chapters 85 and 88 before they're actually introduced. | |

Intimate Lotion Application: The anime adds a sunblock-applying session to the Beach Episode, where Tohru sees a couple romantically rubbing sunscreen on each other and gets the idea to offer if Kobayashi needs sunscreen, but Kobayashi can see through her perverted intentions and pointedly refuses. Lucoa does genuinely ask Shouta to rub sunscreen on her back, but he's far too nervous and shy to do it. But he does accept when she offers to rub it on him, only that having her hands rub him so vigorously gets him so flustered that he runs away as soon as she's finished, accusing her of trying to seduce him. | |

Healing Factor | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_a5fb0d24 | comment |
Healing Factor: It's shown whenever a dragon seriously fights another dragon that they have self-healing powers which are incredibly strong, healing away most injuries in seconds, with wounds that would be mortal for humans vanishing in minutes. It takes incredibly powerful attacks, such as godly swords or a dragon of an equivalent or greater power level attacking them to actually potentially kill them, and even then, if the attack gets canceled before it can be fatal, even a wound mortal to them would stabilize in a few hours. | |

Rule of Three | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_a6cda066 | comment |
Rule of Three: This series loves having three main characters in its cast so much so, that by Chapter 53 it has introduced five different trios, those five being: Kobayashi, Tohru & Kanna, Kobayashi, Takiya & Elma, Tohru, Lucoa & Fafnir, Kanna, Elma & Ilulu and Kanna, Saikawa & Shouta. In the Blu-ray shorts, Lucoa's first two appearances end with her getting arrested for indecent exposure. When she turns up a third time, Kobayashi asks if it's going to happen again and Lucoa responds "That sort of joke isn't funny if you do it more than twice." It happens again, and it's still funny. In Elma's Diary chapter 15 when Elma joins some co-workers at an indoor pool, Lucoa and Shouta join them. Like the above, when Lucoa ends up showing off a lot of skin, she is taken away again. This happens three times. Early in the main manga, Tohru gets three requests to return to her home dimension; first by Kanna in chapter 6, then by Damocles in chapter 20 and finally by Elma in chapter 24. All three times she responds the same way, by telling them that she doesn't want to return to said dimension. In her debut episode/chapters 24 & 26 of the main manga, Elma gets kicked out of Kobayashi's apartment by Tohru three different times. The first time she gets tricked into going through a portal to another continent, on the second time, Tohru sends Elma off with a bag of cream puffs (both in chapter 24), on the final time in chapter 26, she gets shot out of the apartment and into a park when Tohru uses her Breath Weapon on Elma. Many of the Mini Dora shorts abide by this rule. Some examples: Short 3: Tohru takes Kobayashi and Kanna to three different places where they can relax, with Kobayashi being against them due to the extreme natures of said places. Short 4: The short depicts three examples of Saikawa incorporating Kanna into her school art projects. Short 7: The short shows three times where Kanna is distracted from eating breakfast by the television set. Short 8: During three points of the say, Kobayashi can tell what time it is at work just by hearing the growling of Elma's stomach. Short 9: Kanna tries out three different hairstyles on Kobayashi. Short 10: The "First Seminar on How to Behave in Human Society" consists of Tohru providing three scenarios about how humans should naturally react to a situation, with the older dragons getting it wrong and Kanna getting it right. Short 12: Tohru makes three bento meals that Kobayashi disapproves of before she it gets it right. Short SP 1: Depicts three nights in a row where Kanna supposedly falls asleep on the couch, only to reveal that by the second night, she is feigning tiredness just so she lay her head on Tohru's breasts (with Kobayashi catching on by night three). | |

Imagine Spot | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_a7382a73 | comment |
In the anime, (episode 3), the Imagine Spot scene where Kanna and Tohru licked each other clean was pixellated out, in the manga (chapter 11), it wasn't (even though genitals and nipples weren't shown). | |

Humanity Is Infectious | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_aa88f109 | comment |
Humanity Is Infectious: Dragon psychology is far more simplified than that of a human (given that they are both a solitary species and apex predetors who don't really need to think all that hard), but they are very quick learners. As such, any dragon who spends extended periods of time among human society will start to express certain human concepts like romance, familial affection, and even age based maturity. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: A double whammy. Not only do the various dragons have issues understanding humans due to being dragons, but all their information on humans up till this point is based off an entirely different culture whose values are nearly as alien to modern Japan as they are to the dragons. | |

Dramatic Irony | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_ab5eea65 | comment |
Dramatic Irony: During a flashback chapter, Tohru tells a bandit that she'd never let a human ride on her back. In the present day, she often complains about how Kobayashi refuses to ride her to work. After Tohru showed up in retaliation for him hurting Kobayashi, Clemene tried calling Elma for help. It's far more likely that — if Elma had shown up — she might have struck an Enemy Mine situation with Tohru and been conflicted instead due to her own relationship with Kobayashi. Tohru's father has no idea that him teaching her to always repay her debts is partially the reason for her staying with Kobayashi. | |

Weirdness Censor | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_abdf7d09 | comment |
Weirdness Censor: Most bystanders seem to be utterly oblivious to the actions that any of the dragons take, like when Tohru used inhuman strength and speed to stop a purse snatcher, or when she fired a massive Wave-Motion Gun in broad daylight that blew away storm clouds while in full dragon form. They do notice the horns, but everyone just passes that off as cosplaying. It's later explained as being caused by "cognitive inhibition" magic on the part of the dragons. During the Dodgeball chapter where Tohru and friends end up fighting each other and destroy the park they're in, Lucoa states that she'll restore the park and manipulate bystander memory to keep their identities secret. In chapter 38, Tohru also shows that she's capable of manipulating memories as she erases Clemene's memory. In chapter 6 of Lucoa is my xx, Lucoa admits to Shouta that she cast a "Fuzzy Spell" on his entire class that makes them oblivious to what she does while still being aware that she's there. She proceeds to demonstrate its effects by parting the pool a la Moses to save a drowning student without anyone making a comment. | |

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Every manga chapter is titled "[Character] and [Subject of Chapter]". Up until chapter 38, the character in the title was always one of the dragons, even if the main focus was on one of the humans. Chapters of Kanna's Daily Life are titled "[Subject of Chapter] Time". The anime has conventional titles that describe the overarching theme of the episode, followed by a snarky comment in parenthesis. | |

Armor-Piercing Response: Kobayashi gives Elma one when she calls her rude for interrupting her conversation with Tohru. Pointing out that she destroyed her apartment with her entrance and should learn the rules of a world before trying to protect it. In Elma's spin-off in chapter 36, Tohru comments about how she makes a rice dish that is well-balanced in flavors as well as nutrition. Elma comments with how much effort Tohru is putting into this well-balanced meal, she is surprised as that feels more like what a Harmony Dragon would do, not a Chaos. The narrator notes that Tohru's identity got shaken from this realization. | |

The Blind Leading the Blind: When Kanna first moves into Kobayashi's apartment, Tohru takes her into town to teach her the "common sense" of Earth. While she does get a few details right, most of what she tells her is Entertainingly Wrong. In one chapter of Elma's Office Lady Diary, Elma tries going shopping for trendy, work appropriate clothing. Naturally, the people she gets to help her are Lucoa, and Ilulu. | |

Fish out of Water | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_af696bef | comment |
Fish out of Water: Due to a combination of dragons having a heavy case of Proud Warrior Race culture, along with humanity in their world being exactly like what you'd expect from a Fantasy Kitchen Sink modelled after a Medieval European Fantasy, most of the dragons, particularly Tohru, Kanna, and Elma, who come to the "main" Earth experience some difficulties adjusting to modern human life since it's completely different from everything they know. That said, there are a rare few that instead are Like a Duck Takes to Water, such as Lucoa and Telne, who despite some draconic eccentricities fit in perfectly. Though regardless of how much time each of the dragons took to comprehend this version of humanity, them spending enough time interacting with it has consistently resulted in them Going Native, feeling stronger connections to Earthly humans than they had even with other dragons back home. | |

The Force Is Strong with This One: Several wizards try to sense Kobayashi's magic powers after she got first place on a mage exam. They end up sensing Tohru instead (who was sitting next to her), which causes Kobayashi to be Mistaken for Badass. All of the dragons can also be seen reacting when Tohru's father shows up in the anime. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Attempted and subverted in chapter 86. Elma and Tohru, both having learned to drive, have gone to various locations in a race. On their way to the last place, being all tied up, and Elma behind Tohru, Elma is reminded by Kobayashi to not break the speed limit to win. So Elma gets out and carries the car at higher speeds, rationalizing there are no speed limits if one is on foot. Kobayashi later disqualifies Elma for that stunt. | |

Trapped in Another World: While none of the dragons are natives of Earth, most of them have the ability to freely conjure up inter-dimensional portals. The only ones who are "trapped" on Earth are Kanna and Elma. Kanna could theoretically go back at any time with Tohru's help, but she'd just be sent back to Earth anyway because she had been banished. Elma, on the other hand, got stuck chasing after Tohru, lacks the ability to make her own portals, and isn't on the best of terms with those who can. | |

Fafnir walks away from Comiket 90 completely dejected and devoid of color, because he wasn't able to sell even one copy of his manga. It happens again when no-one wants to buy the sequel at Comiket 91. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_ba236071 | comment |
A minor running gag in Elma's Office Lady Diary is that Tohru will try to kill Elma for anything the latter does with Kobayshi that she doesn't approve of. Examples include: taking Kobayashi to a mixer, letting Kobayashi get drunk (and ending up in Australia), and giving Tohru new meal ideas that Tohru herself ruins by trying to serve her tail. It pretty much stops after the spinoff reaches the point in the timeline where chapter 64 of the main manga takes place, though. | |

While Tohru does decide against giving it to her after a stern warning, Kobayashi still ends up having some of it accidentally when Kanna gets her hands on the chocolate, with the young dragon then giving a piece to Kobayashi. A Valentine's Day story also appears in Chapter 6 of Kanna's Daily Life, in which Ilulu assumes that the chocolate that Kanna made for Saikawa was for her. | |

Muggle Sports, Super Athletes | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_bec7d1ea | comment |
Muggle Sports, Super Athletes: Saikawa challenges a bunch of playground bullies to a game of dodgeball, before realizing she doesn't have a team. Luckily she's best friends with Kanna, who then gathers up all her dragon friends to accept the challenge. Needless to say the dragons lay waste to the opposition. In fact they were so bored by the lack of any challenge they decided to continue the game between themselves without holding back, causing the ball to get thrown around at supersonic speed. Subverted when Kanna partakes in her school's sports event. She has kept her dragon abilities in check so it's not apparent she's superhuman, though she still ends up as the top athlete of her class. | |

Translator Microbes | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_bf487e2b | comment |
Translator Microbes: Tohru explicitly states she uses a translator spell on Chloe when she comes to visit Japan in the anime (in the manga, Chloe was learning the language the old fashioned way and was nowhere near fluent). It's implied in the manga that Kanna used something similar in New York, while the anime has her explicitly analyzing the lip movement and vocalizations of several civilians to generate an automatic translation spell after she initially ran into a Language Barrier. | |

Flower Motif: Episode 13 is centered around one. First it's discussed when Saikawa gives Kanna a Shepherd's Pursenote Capsella bursa-pastoris after finding out that it means "I offer you my all". After Tohru is abducted by her father, the camera shows the flower many times. It is finally echoed by Tohru after the Final Battle, where she tells Kobayashi she can have her all. | |

The Neutral Zone | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_c27c7e07 | comment |
The Neutral Zone: Earth is treated this way among dragons, more so because it would lead to the planet's destruction if any truly violent dragons showed up than the war between the order and chaos factions. In fact, the main reason why Tohru's father and Elma originally show up is due to Tohru violating the rules (though Elma's reason would later turn out to be a lot more personal). | |

Time Dissonance | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_c3743565 | comment |
Time Dissonance: Dragons aren't specifically stated to be immortal, but their lifespans are at least long enough that it can be measured on a planetary scale. This occasionally causes them trouble when it comes to putting things in perspective with a human lifespan, like when Ilulu asks Tohru to give her another century to think about what kind of job she wants or when Elma asks Lucoa to rate her new outfit that is several decades out of style. | |

Omake | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_c387cc18 | comment |
After Kanna and Saikawa's kiss gets interrupted, Kanna mentions in the manga omake "I wanted to *** her." The last two words were muted in the anime.note Some translators suggest that the censored dialogue was about Kanna wanting to lick Saikawa. In which case, it might be a form of Deliberate Values Dissonance as dragons view licking each other the same way that a Japanese person would view washing someone's back. The Funimation dub of this scene has most of Kanna's dialogue muted save for the last two words, "dragon style". | |

Censored for Comedy: Fafnir's "Curse Anthology", his attempt at making a manga, is completely pixelated to the viewers. Tohru points out that he put actual instructions of real curses, including how to kill people. She also mentioned that selling it at 1000 yen (roughly $9-$10 USD in 2016) is quite a bargain. Tohru's Christmas present for Kobayashi was some weird and still-living thing from her world she'd have to grind up and apply to her back to get rid of her back pain. Some of the leftover ingredients from Tohru's omurice are still wriggling by the time Kobayashi gets back home. | |

Muscles Are Meaningless: The dragons, despite being impossibly strong creatures, don't have very noticeable musculature in their human forms. This is especially true for Tohru, who's quite slender, and Kanna, who's a little girl. It's explained by Tohru that they use magic to reinforce their muscles, and if they're all out then they're no stronger than their appearances would suggest (as demonstrated by Kanna when she was first introduced). | |

Their vast superhuman abilities turn the relatively modest sport of dodgeball into what amounts to an epic battle with massive amounts of property destruction... which gets fixed in a jiffy (and bystanders have their memories erased) through magic afterwards. In Episode 2, Tohru and Kanna use the seesaw to toss each other sky high after Kobayashi tries explaining its correct usage to them. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: Tohru and Elma were close friends in the backstory, until they had a falling out... in theory anyways. Despite claiming to be bitter rivals, they still act like friends (just ones that are in the middle of a bad argument), something which Kobayashi repeatedly lampshades. Of course, it helps that both of them secretly want to become friends again, something which comes to pass in chapter 64. The first season of the anime even made this the subject of their shared Image Song, despite not covering the chapters surrounding their friendship until season 2. | |

Our Dragons Are Different: Due to the Fantasy Kitchen Sink nature of Cool-kyou Shinsha's verse, all of the dragons have vastly different powers and appearances. Though the ones that have similar horn designs are related.note like Damocles/Tohru, Kimun/Kanna and Elma/Telne The only real consistencies seem to be their ability to fly and use magic (generally to turn into human form). It's also important to note that Tohru's fight with the gods and Quetzalcoatl's backstory demonstrates that dragons are the level of power below godhood in the series. | |

Ship Tease: Kobayashi and Tohru are the primary tease, but Kobayashi also gets some pretty discreet ship tease with Elma and more overt ship tease with Ilulu. Though comparatively little, there is teasing between Kobayashi and Takiya. Unlike the other teases this is reciprocated on some level. Ilulu and Taketo get quite a bit of teasing. Ilulu even states that Taketo "ranks right after Kobayashi" soon after they met. | |

You Wanna Get Sued? | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_ddc66c9a | comment |
You Wanna Get Sued?: In chapter 9, Tohru and Kanna got the impression of superhumans being real in Kobayashi's world from the film "The Ma·rix", while in the anime it was an unnamed fictional ninja movie with a ninja cutting a steel door with his sword. In chapter 11, Kobayashi compares Tohru with a Legendary P·kémon, because she would move to a new location whenever her current home was found. | |

Translation Convention | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_e11b003d | comment |
Translation Convention: During Kanna's visit to New York City in chapter 62, everyone speaks English and she can't understand it at first, so Kanna acquires "subtitle data from people talking on the streets" (according to the manga) to learn the language. From then on, all English is translated into Japanese with the exception of a few words. Presumably, this also applies to flashbacks in the other world. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_e9f517e1 | comment |
Artistic License – Geography: Kanna's brief trip to America suggests that Cool-kyou Shinsha has a tenuous grasp of American geography. She accidentally lands in New York City, which is already a stretch (after flying away from Japan, she was looking for any city to land in, which would make her much more likely to wind up in a West-coast city like San Francisco or Seattle). But after befriending a wealthy girl named Chloe, Kanna finds out that Chloe is actually a runaway from Minnesota, which is a full 1,200 miles away from NYC! This would be an 18-hour drive, and there's no telling how a 12-year old runaway managed to make the trip on her own. | |

Crossover Cosmology | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_ea8168f | comment |
Crossover Cosmology: At the very least, Aztec, Norse, Japanese, Ainu, Basque, and Christian mythology are true (Tohru's not a big fan of Jesus's dad). A chapter of Kanna's Daily Life where the Kobayashi household is telling ghost stories reveals that the Japanese urban legend of Mary-san is indeed true, with her visiting places where her story is told in hopes of finding her owner. However, only Kanna realizes this, with Kobayashi and Tohru assuming that Mary-san was one of Kanna's schoolmates coming over to their apartment to add some scare factor when Kanna told the tale. | |

This is the entire reason why Fafnir asked Lucoa to model for one of his doujinshis, because someone on an MMO told him that they're supposed to feature a lewd, indecent woman. While he fails to sell any due to his art style, hers sell out, with this being the implied reason judging by Shouta's reaction to a copy. | |

Murder Is the Best Solution: Parodied. Fafnir's first go to solution for any problem from cleaning to shopping to children's games is always "Kill them. Kill them all." Tohru will often suggest killing any human she finds in any way annoying before getting more used to living on Earth. After learning that Tohru is not returning back to the "dragon world" due to her being in love with Kobayashi, Kanna responds by trying to kill Kobayashi, but lacks the mana to do any real damage to her. | |

Great Offscreen War: The dragon war between the Order and Chaos factions. Characters make plenty of references to it, but the fact that the story takes place on Earth (which is an established demilitarized zone) means that it's never shown. The one time that the plot heads to the other world, the battle that would have taken place is avoided thanks to Kobayashi's intervention. | |

Medieval European Fantasy: The universe the dragons come from is indicated to be like this, because Tohru often mentions "crusader bases" that gave her trouble and adventurers that would harrass her if she stayed in one place too long. She is also annoyed by the association of dragons as princess-kidnapers. | |

Teru-Teru Bōzu: Kobayashi makes some modeled after her, Tohru, and Kanna during a rainstorm in episode 6 (complete with horns in the case of the latter two). | |

Running Gag | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Kobayashi's lower back pain. In the manga this is translated (probably rightly) as butt pain. Tohru trying to feed Kobayashi her tail. 48th Maid Art "Insert power that has nothing to do with maids" Saikawa having a Squee-gasm whenever Kanna does something cute in the anime (she only did so once in the manga). In the anime, Tohru hanging up the phone on Fafnir while he's still talking. | |

Platonic Co-Parenting | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_fb9941df | comment |
Platonic Co-Parenting: Kobayashi acts as a mother for Kanna while Tohru is something of a hybrid between a mother and an older sister. Despite Tohru's crush on Kobayashi, their relationship remains non-romantic. | |

Canon Immigrant: Chapter 55 uses the 5 symbol scene transitions seen in the anime. While she never shows up in the main series, the design for Saikawa's mother from episode 9 was used in Kanna's Daily Life. | |

| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_fc9c6b00 | comment |
Pacifism Is Cowardice: Tohru is revealed to have called Lucoa a coward for the latter refusing to fight against the humans at some point in the past. Of course, Tohru herself didn't actually want to fight either and she's long since patched things up with Lucoa. | |

Impact Silhouette: Downplayed in episode 8. When Tohru blasts Elma out of the apartment, the hole doesn't really resemble her body... but her horn leaves an almost perfect outline at the top. | |

Brick Joke: In chapter 7 of ''Elma's Office Lady Diary", Kobayashi suggets that Elma get a pair of sunglasses for her first "Death March". It's not until the end of the end of the chapter that she finds out that they're to protect her eyes from sunlight once she finally leaves the office after working non-stop for three days. | |

Bigger on the Inside | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_fe1b2e75 | comment |
Once Kanna moves in with her and Tohru, Kobayashi quickly realizes her apartment is too small for all three of them, especially since she only has one bedroom. Rather than have Tohru use her magic to make the apartment Bigger on the Inside, which she could probably do, Kobayashi simply pays for them to move into a bigger apartment with two bedrooms. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (Manga) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: Most of the facts about the dragons are taken from actual mythology, such as Tohru's friend Herensuge being killed by an egg without a yolk and the fact that Lucoa (aka Quetzalcoatl) slept with her own sister. In the Wedding edition of the OODragon BD specials, Kanna's wedding scenario has her dressed in Russian attire, reflecting how Ushishir (the home of the actual Kanna Kamuy) is currently under Russian control.note As are all of the other islands in that chain. | |
