Winter 2023 Debut of “A Herbivorous Dragon” Comedy Anime Confirmed

Dragons are mythical creatures who have a grand image in our minds. Either they feed on virgin sacrifices or grant people immeasurable powers.

The dragon in “A Herbivorous Dragon of 5,000 Years Gets Unfairly Villainized” is anything but majestic. In fact, it can single-handedly ruin the reputation of its entire species. Not because he is evil but because of his diet-conscious nature and fear of getting hurt even the slightest bit.

The “A Herbivorous Dragon of 5,000 Years Gets Unfairly Villainized” anime will be released in January 2023. A new teaser is also out for this hilarious anime. Check out the comic moments of a dragon bent on leading a vegetarian existence right here:

The dragon tries to get rid of the nuisance by telling her a white lie, but little did he know that he would be dragged into a big mess because of it.
