Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid

As Kobayashi sets off for another day at work, she opens her apartment door only to be met by an unusually frightening sight-the head of a dragon, staring at her from across the balcony. The dragon immediately transforms into a cute, busty, and energetic young girl dressed in a maid outfit, introducing herself as Tooru. It turns out that the stoic programmer had come across the dragon the previous night on a drunken excursion to the mountains, and since the mythical beast had nowhere else to go, she had offered the creature a place to stay in her home. Thus, Tooru had arrived to cash in on the offer, ready to repay her savior's kindness by working as her personal maidservant. Though deeply regretful of her words and hesitant to follow through on her promise, a mix of guilt and Tooru's incredible dragon abilities convinces Kobayashi to take the girl in. Despite being extremely efficient at her job, the maid's unorthodox methods of housekeeping often end up horrifying Kobayashi and at times bring more trouble than help. Furthermore, the circumstances behind the dragon's arrival on Earth seem to be much more complicated than at first glance, as Tooru bears some heavy emotions and painful memories. To top it all off, Tooru's presence ends up attracting several other mythical beings to her new home, bringing in a host of eccentric personalities. Although Kobayashi makes her best effort to handle the crazy situation that she has found herself in, nothing has prepared her for this new life with a dragon maid.

New Dragon, Ilulu! (Please Be Nice to Her Again)

Tohru learns about a new Maid Café that's opened nearby and decides to work there during her free time. Kobayashi and Kanna drop by later to check on her just to find that she has become their head chef. Tohru uses dark magic to enchant the dishes served, which makes the café a success until she decides to quit, but reluctantly decides to teach the other maids to use dark magic as well. A few days later, Tohru and Kobayashi are attacked by Ilulu, an extremist from the Chaos Faction who berates Tohru for coexisting with humans. Tohru gets herself at a disadvantage against Ilulu as she protects the city from her attacks until Kobayashi enlists Elma's help by bribing her with sweets, allowing Tohru to fight with all her power and defeat Ilulu. Ilulu later returns and attempts to seduce Kobayashi but fails. Certain that Kobayashi has not fallen for her because she's also female, Ilulu retreats for a while, but not before transforming Kobayashi into a male.
