Crunchyroll Will Handle Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid Movie

Crunchyroll announced it picked up the Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid film that will debut in Japan on June 27, 2025, and the movie will appear in English as Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid: A Lonely Dragon Wants to be Loved. There’s no exact release window for the worldwide release yet. However, we do know there will be no dub and the theatrical release will only feature the Japanese voice acting with English subtitles. 

We do have some general idea of what the movie will cover. Prior announcements already confirmed it is part of the same continuity as the anime adaptation. Someone who watched that will then see everything pick up with Kobayashi, Tohru, Kanna, and Iruru living together as a family. Kanna’s father wants to take her away. So a big part of the themes will involve the definitions of families and cooperation between everyone who’s come together so far as a result of Kobayashi and Tohru meeting in order to help bring balance between the Chaos and Order factions of dragons.

Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid: A Lonely Dragon Wants to be Loved will debut in Japanese movie theaters on June 27, 2025, and we’ll see the film in English sometime in the future via Crunchyroll. Seven Seas handles the manga in English, while the anime is streaming on Crunchyroll.
