Dragons of Wonderhatch is a new Japanese series that looks to be a fantastical combination of live-action and anime. It follows Nagi (Sena Nakajima) a young girl who fantasizes about flying and often dreams of being in a world other than her utterly mundane one. She gets more than what she wishes for when the dragon rider Thaim (Daiken Okudaira) and his adorable sidekick Guphin quite literally jump out of the pages of a book one day and draw her in a series of adventures. We then jump back and forth between Nagi’s live-action and Thaim’s animated realm; both are very real, and very much in danger of collapsing unless Nagi and Thaim work together to save the two worlds.
If that doesn’t sound exciting enough, a possible draw to Western watchers is that One Piece breakout star Mackenyu will be playing a major role in Watch Dragons of Wonderhatch. Here, he’s Aktha, a dragon warrior-hero whom Thaim and Nagi must find if they want to save the world.
