Drama Digest

Red dragon Letty, who failed to protect his parents’ eggs in the fantasy world of an RPG, receives his parents’ disapproval. Unlike other dragons, Letty is humble, cowardly, and has average stats. Thus, he must now find a spot of his own. Nevertheless, a helpless juvenile dragon becomes an easy target for individuals who only consider him as a monster to be feared, conquered, and even devoured. He spends some time looking for a place to call “home,” and then he comes across the elf Dearia, who managed to fight off a group of heroes and saves him. Dearia offers to assist Letty in finding the ideal residence that meets his wants. She is both an architect and a real estate agent. Along with all the strange animals and powerful foes he encounters along the way, Letty’s house-hunting mission thus begins!

The Feel-Good Part

The bond between Letty and Dearia is incredibly heartwarming and enjoyable. The relationships between the anime’s characters are interesting. The dialogue and plot keep the audience interested.

The Disappointing Factor

The episode lasts for 24 minutes. The length of the episodes has left some people unimpressed.
