## Synopsis

Following a drunken encounter in the mountains, office worker Kobayashi discovers that the dragon she met has taken her invitation seriously. The visitor assumes a human form, calls herself Tohru, and moves in as Kobayashi's enthusiastic maid. Tohru understands power far better than housework, which turns routine domestic life into comedy. Other dragons begin appearing around them, each with a different response to humans and their customs. Beneath the magical commotion, the story follows two outsiders learning what it means to make room for someone else in their lives.
