The story is quite odd. I tried volume 1, and the magic system wasn't established that well at all, since some stuff is quite confusing. Like, how did the talismans summon all the pandas, cats, mice, and stuff like that? And it's weird that the story didn't really explain how the dragon got summoned or merged into the main character (Momoka). It's unrealistic that Momoka would control the dragon power so easily when she first got the power. Most people wouldn't control it that well at all when they first got a type of power.
And they say Ryuga is Chinese, whose hanzi is 龙牙, but
...
his name is in Kunyomi (訓読み), which is the Japanese pronunciation of the hanzi. His name should be in Onyomi (音読み), which is the Chinese pronunciation. So Ryuga's name should be Longya.
The story's plot is also quite non-linear, which is kinda confusing. And some characters are kind of underdeveloped, which makes it hard to name at least 3 traits out of each character if I don't mention their name, their appearance, their role in the story, or their relation to another character.
It's also quite weird that the author made all the demons have Chinese outfits. It's kinda bad, though. It feels like the author is saying Chinese people are "demons". And the author didn't really explain why there are demons or what they do or what their powers are or anything.
I'm Chinese-Canadian, so I have a say in things. Which, technically, the rainbow dragon thing is legit. In ancient Chinese mythology, the rainbow was not seen as a simple meteorological phenomenon, but as a celestial dragon manifesting in the sky. The Hong (虹) was traditionally described as a massive, snakelike dragon with two heads—one at each end of its body. The Chinese character for rainbow (hóng) etymologically represents this two-headed arched dragon. The ancient pictograph mirrored the colorful arc of a rainbow stretching between heaven and earth. The Hong was believed to drink water from the earth, and ancient texts sometimes associated its sudden appearance in the sky with omens, storms, or a connection between the earthly and spiritual realms. Instead of being just a creature, the Hong held deep cosmological significance. Many dynastic records, such as the Book of the Song, feature legends where ancient emperors (like Shao Hao and Shun) were conceived or born after their mothers dreamed of or witnessed a vibrant rainbow. In early Chinese philosophy, the two-headed nature of the Hong symbolized the merging or balancing of the Yin and Yang energies.
But St Dragon Girl didn't really explain the mythology. They just created a dragon with powers that can be summoned and stuff like that. Which is weird.
