About the Film

Picking up where Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid Season 2 left off, the new feature-length installment follows fan-favorite Dragon child Kanna Kamui as she faces a powerful emotional dilemma — choosing between her biological dragon family and her beloved human family. As her father, Kamun Kamui, arrives to bring her back to the Dragon World, tensions rise and the fate of both worlds hangs in the balance.

The film will be presented in Japanese with English subtitles and has a runtime of 105 minutes.

Official Synopsis

Miss Kobayashi, Tohru, Kanna, and Iruru’s peaceful lives are shattered when Kanna’s father, Kamun Kamui, leader of the Chaos Forces, arrives and forces her to return to the Dragon World to fix a past mistake. With a war brewing between Chaos and Harmony, Kanna must find a way to unite the two worlds but is torn between her loyalty to her friends and her father’s demands. Miss Kobayashi, however, refuses to let her go and tries to mend Kanna and Kamui’s broken bond. As dragons clash, Iruru uncovers a hidden force manipulating the war. Can they stop the war before it consumes both worlds?
