Synopsis
Historically, 72% of all deaths in London are related to dragons, fantastical beings invisible to most people. Despite being unknown to most, some people have encountered these dragons. Only the inhabitants of Reverse London, who live on the hidden "reverse" side of London, have the ability to see the dragons. Even then, only a select few become skilled enough as witches or wizards to make direct contact with them.
Thus, the protagonists of this fascinating story are the witch duo Noel Niihashi and Ninny Spangcole. They play the role of protection agents at Wing Bind (WB), an organization dedicated to the conservation and management of dragons. Their mission is to protect and manage the dragons within London on behalf of the people.
Furthermore, the serialized version of the manga initially had four chapters in total and premiered on August 24, 2020. The manga is also receiving a sequel titled "Season 2".
