@RobertBobert Not sure about romance...but there're friendships and bonds between the dragon and the other characters, which I find is the heartwarming part.

@Koyasu_kingdom And there is no romance or power of friendship between the dragon and the other characters?

@RobertBobert
It is more like the dragon is raised by the mother cat and becomes a guardian of the cats. The girl or other human characters go on adventures with those magical cats...on and on, inspiring the dragon not to hate humans kind of story!

@Koyasu_kingdom If I understand correctly, this is an adventure of a girl (woman) who turns into a dragon and her cat?

@Nachtwandler_21 I do not know how it will look, but Premise already sounds like space pirates against zombies for animal lovers.

We have a dragoncat now. I wonder if it is just a dragon/cat transformed with magic or a hybrid?

I did not understand anything, but it seems that it sounds interesting.
