So, How Many Dragon Maid Seasons Are REALLY There?
Let's talk Dragon Maid. Specifically, how many seasons it *actually* has. It's a simple question, right?
Well, according to Crunchyroll, there are two. That seems straightforward. But hear me out. I think we need to dig deeper.
The Obvious Answer: Two Seasons
Yeah, yeah. Season one introduced us to Kobayashi and her new dragon roommate, Tohru. We met Kanna, Fafnir, and all the chaos. Good times!
Then season two, Dragon Maid S, upped the ante. More dragons! More hijinks! Even more heartwarming moments.
Case closed? Not so fast. I'm about to drop a potentially unpopular opinion. Buckle up.
My Unpopular Opinion: There's Technically More!
Think about it. What about all those OVAs? Aren't they basically extra episodes? They certainly feel like it.
They're often self-contained stories. Featuring the same characters. In the same art style. And the same level of pure, unadulterated adorableness.
So, are we just going to ignore them? I say NO! They deserve recognition.
The "Mini Dragon" Conundrum
And what about Mini Dragon? These shorts are like super-concentrated doses of Dragon Maid cuteness. Tiny dragons doing tiny things.
They aired alongside Dragon Maid S. Are they just bonus content? Or are they *technically* a mini-season of their own?
I'm starting to think the answer is a resounding maybe? Okay, I'm just stirring the pot now.
The Case for Counting Specials
Then we have all the specials. Little extras that add to the overall experience. They give us more insight into the characters.
Think about all the food and cooking in Dragon Maid. Food is an important element of Japanese culture that also acts as a bridge for building the relationships in the anime.
And they're just fun to watch! I think they should be included in our season count too. Don't you agree?
So, What's the Real Number?
Okay, fine. Officially, there are two main seasons. I concede that point.
But in my heart, there are at least four. Two official seasons, plus all the OVAs, and the Mini Dragon episodes. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!
I will not be accepting comments.
Let's Just Agree to Love Dragon Maid
Ultimately, does it really matter how many seasons there are "officially?" Dragon Maid is amazing!
We can all agree on that, right? Tohru's devotion, Kobayashi's weary acceptance, Kanna's adorable mischief. It's all gold.
So, let's just enjoy all the content we can get. And maybe, just maybe, convince the creators to give us even more!
Maybe it's time to rewatch the entire series? All the seasons, OVAs, and shorts. Just to be sure, of course.
