The original manga series by Coolkyousinnjya was first serialized in Futabasha’s Monthly Action magazine on May 25, 2013, before moving to MANGA Action magazine in 2024 due to the former ceasing publication. Sixteen tankobon volumes have been released as of February 2025, with a 17th volume set for release on June 12, 2025. Seven Seas Entertainment releases the manga in English, as well as its many spinoff titles.

Crunchyroll is streaming both seasons of Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid, describing the main synopsis of the first season as: 

Miss Kobayashi is your average office worker who lives a boring life, alone in her small apartment–until she saves the life of a female dragon in distress. The dragon, named Tohru, has the ability to magically transform into an adorable human girl (albeit with horns and a long tail!), who will do anything to pay off her debt of gratitude, whether Miss Kobayashi likes it or not. With a very persistent and amorous dragon as a roommate, nothing comes easy, and Miss Kobayashi’s normal life is about to go off the deep end!
