19. Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid
https://myanimelist.net/anime/33206/Kobayashi-san_Chi_no_Maid_Dragon

Dragon Maid is what I call a return to form for Kyoto Animation. After floundering with shows like Tamako Market and that other one I can't remember with the limbo boobs we finally go back to what they do best, simple slice of life comedies that focus greatly on character interactions.

This is likely one of the most known titles on this list due to the show becoming a meme in "don't lewd the dragon loli". Mostly because for whatever reason people thought that the show like sexualized the loli or something? I don't know, like I saw the show and the only loli I thought was being sexualized was the dragon loli's friend with her fucking sex faces every time her the dragon loli was being cute. Anyway, this show is about Miss Kobayashi, a normal business woman who happens to get a maid, a dragon maid (but maybe she was just a dragon... but she was still...)

I'm not quite sure when I got to a point where I thought to myself, man this is a great show. But I don't think this is something you watch and immediately know it's great. Sure, Kyoto animation does everything it can on the production standpoint, but once the entire cast gets together and starts to interact with each other the show really shines.

Kobayashi herself is somewhat a stoic character. She has annoyances over some of Tooru's (the blonde dragon) antics but you can tell she appreciates her. The dragons themselves have varying personalities, like Tooru is more of a genki type, Kana is cute, Elma is more or less a type of headstrong tsundere, Quetzalcoatl is the seductive one, and Fafnir basically becomes a neet or something...lol. In any case there's this play scene where they all work together for some nursing home. I'd say if you want a show of like each characters personality that's a great spot.

Overall Dragon Maid is a great show that I think might rely a little more on very high points versus other shows in the game genre, but is a title I think should be enjoyable by most people.
