What would you do if you woke up one morning and discovered you were growing literal dragon horns? For Ruri Aoki, life was supposed to be a normal, uneventful high school grind. But after her mom drops the bombshell that her father is actually a full-blooded dragon, Ruri's life takes an immediate, fiery turn. Between dodging inquisitive classmates and trying not to accidentally sneeze fire during a lecture, Ruri is learning that balancing puberty with draconic genetics is the ultimate high school challenge.

RuriDragon is a breath of fresh air in the supernatural slice of life genre. It turns the typical monster-human trope on its head, trading high-stakes action for the hilariously relatable struggles of a teenager just trying to keep her cool while her DNA has other plans. It is quirky, visually charming, and deeply grounded in the awkwardness of daily life, making it easy to see why it swept critical acclaim including the 2023 Nationwide Bookstore Staff Recommended Comics top spot and the Magademy Award for its imaginative world-building. After a long-awaited return from hiatus, the series has moved to a regular bi-weekly schedule on Shounen Jump+, ensuring there is plenty more of Ruri's chaotic school life to come. Whether you are in it for the cozy vibes or the sudden bursts of dragon-fire mayhem, this is a heartwarming comedy you cannot afford to miss.
