A breathtaking new story spanning both live-action and anime mediums, Dragons of Wonderhatch follows Nagi, a girl in the ‘real world’ of Yokosuka who has spent her life feeling like she doesn’t belong. Dreaming of one day being able to fly, Nagi’s life is turned upside down when a dragon rider called Thaim and his dragon Guphin suddenly burst out of her bookcase. Tasked with saving his home world of Upananta from collapse, Thaim and Nagi begin to work together to find a solution, uncovering a shocking secret that connects their two homes along the way.“
Dragons of Wonderhatch is directed by the duo of Kentarô Hagiwara (Tokyo Ghoul) and Takashi Ôtsuka (One Piece: Stampede). It’s unclear if they co-direct all the episodes or split the eight-episode run. Meanwhile, the scriptwriting credits include Kyota Fujimoto, Anna Kawahara, and Takamasa Ôe.
The series is not dubbed on Disney Plus yet. However, there are English subtitles. The show’s original title was Wonderhatch: Soratobu Ryu no Shima.
