I’m mixed on the new information given. On one hand, I like the idea of Ilulu being coached and influenced by Yutarama before her appearance; on the other hand, I dislike the idea of Yutarama, or anyone for that matter, being hinted at as a grand mastermind, pulling the strings in the story. It takes away from the sense of found family/friendship. With that said, I enjoyed the chit-chat between this unexpected duo; they’re entertaining.

It’d be stronger had Coolkyou hinted at Yutarama’s existence earlier in the manga, like, way earlier. Something tells me he wanted to inject her into the plot somewhere, but only now figured out what purpose she’d serve. Also, this is the first time we’re seeing Ilulu’s true form in complete detail in the manga, not as a mini dragon or silhouette. She looks really fat!

Why is there a plot in my ecchi manga

 

[JumboWheat01]

Attack of the plot! With a pair of dragons you wouldn't expect to pal about!

Seriously, never expected them to just stand around and chat, it's such a weird pair.

Thanks for your work. If I could ask for one thing - would it be possible to make the font a tad larger in the future? Text bubbles are over half empty with current font size and ngl, it's kinda hard to read, even on the phone.

I don't think Yutarama would be the grand mastermind, at least for malicious reasons. I'm certain she sent Ilulu to hunt Kobayashi after hearing what happened between her and the Emperor of Demise, and became more interested in Kobayashi after Iruru was dealt with.

There are many dragons who can use dimensional travel, after all Elma followed Tohru, I also think that Fafnir and Lucoa came through by their own means. Kanna was sent through because of her pranking, and possibly because she liked using her human form, who done it is pretty open, and there could be many candidates for it, hence why she has no idea.

I kinda understand why Coolkyou wants to make Yutarama a major player in the manga, after all Kobayashi is acquainted with Telne, the second highest in the harmony faction and Lucoa, one of the most powerful people in the other world, having a stated powerhouse of the chaos faction will balance it out.

Someone be messing around with wizards, dragons, demons and even gods.
for a sinster purpose?, attempting to condense both worlds into 1 by sending enough power over to break the system.
for the lolz?

Is this the first time Iruru's full dragon form was shown on panel?

 

[MOKALI]

Plot came back running at full speed

 

[ciera]

Thanks for the chapter

 

[5VIOLIN]

can anyone remind me again who yuratama is?

 

[josilva81]

I see. The plot thicckens. I liked this unexpected dynamic.

Thanks for the chapter

 

[Boring-Ash]

Everybody doubling down on plot, but my major takeaway was Dragons have a mating season and Iruru is going into hers. Also Elma's first outfit was hot

 

[jackjack9]

Really enjoyed Elma and Ilulu's interactions.

 

[isoycrazy]

Take never needs fear losing money at his grandma's store as long as Elma is buying in bulk.

 

[radstylix]

I hope whoever is pulling the strings is insanely hot at least 🤤

I actually don't mind "slice-of-life" series that have occasional story arcs. They've done it well enough here in Dragon Maid, but sometimes they miss like My New Girlfriend Is Not Human, at least, those are my opinions.

Personally, I'm quite okay with the Mastermind revelation. Though, for the record, it's likely not Yutarama.

Since the this new old enemy seems to have the M.O of erasing memories so as not to leave any clues.

I also don't think any of that takes away from what they've all built.

Though it does answer some questions we didn't even think to ask...

That demon dragon that showed up a while back who wants Kobayashi's soul...
