To say this show is anywhere near a masterpiece is a complete lie but that being said the show does exactly what it needs to do and it does it well at that.

The show is a lighthearted journey of a pitifully weak dragon who after being kicked out of his family home must go looking for a safe place to live with the help of a jack of all trades style real estate agent who he meets on his journey which is definitely a unique synopsis for a show.

Despite the simple but unusual premise, I wouldn't say the show was ever boring as there are numerous references to other media which were fun to pick up on, additionally, the contrast between a weak, emotionally vulnerable but scary-looking dragon and a strong, emotionally bone dry but gentle-looking elf makes for some entertaining moments, this is sometimes a bad thing though as characters can seem one dimensional, luckily I think the pacing moves the story along before it becomes too much of an issue.

The task of finding a safe home doesn't necessarily sound like a difficult task but there are numerous trials and tribulations the main character Letty must face on his house hunting quest one repeated annoyance being other races, primarily humans, who for one reason or another wish to use or hurt Letty which shows the "scary" monsters as the good guys which is becoming a much more popular theme in shows like "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime"

One major thing to note is that this show doesn't focus on combat at all despite there being stats so you shouldn't expect some crazy fights going into this show, but the story is overall engaging enough to hold your attention without them and manages to balance moments of sincerity with moments of comedy. The art style and animation are surprisingly good considering I hadn't heard any hype surrounding this show.

All in all, I would recommend this show if you're looking for something to relax and watch or if you like fantasy shows but don't mind the lack of fighting.
