Summary:
In order to avoid Earth's impending destruction from an asteroid, the International Solarsystem Development Agency (ISDA) works on the "D-Project", and creates dragons after finding a dragon egg under the ocean. However, they soon find out that the asteroid is not their only threat, as powerful dragon-like creatures appear on Earth. After witnessing a murder by one of the creatures, Jin Kamishina gets involved in the mysteries of the dragons and becomes a dragon pilot, otherwise known as a "Dragonaut". Helping him on his journey is Toa, a mysterious girl who saves him from falling to his death after the creature attacks him. As they delve deeper into the mysteries of the dragons, they encounter new friends and enemies, and also begin to develop a closer relationship.
An interesting premise with interesting characters. Dragonaut has a lot of mystery and intrigue going on beneath the surface, but only bits and pieces of it get told as the main characters are focused on their own lives and goals.
The pros: quite an interesting concept of human dragonauts riding powerful dragons after a process of resonance and dragons being born from eggs. Each dragon in his/her human form has distinctive personalities, very interesting characters and the relationships between different pairs of dragonaut-dragon are also very entertaining. I was excited from the very beginning. The transformation of dragons and their fighting styles were quite refreshing for a mecha anime. Toa - the main girl is so cool and it's indeed fascinating to watch a mecha series (read more)

Toa - the main girl is so cool and it's indeed fascinating to watch a mecha series where the female protagonist is way stronger than the male one and keeps protecting him.
The cons: continuing with the previous point, it got to a point where seeing the main girl rescuing and protecting the main guy gets quite irritating. The truly strong guy isn't given enough love. Like a previous reviewer mentioned, character appearances were a problem as well. Granted, we see huge boobs everywhere in almost all anime series. However, with this anime, it's a bit too over the top and this style of animation sometimes prevents you from taking the story seriously. Other than this, the art is awesome. I enjoyed the first few episodes and as soon as i got enough explanations for the mysteries, i got bored and just skipped through to the end.
What a shame, it started out so well i was quite sure i would enjoy the whole thing :( (show less)

Well, at first glance I thought this is the usual anime with a lots of ecchi and fighting scene, aimed at the teenager boys mostly. But it has a deep and difficult romantic story (a bit too "much" for me, as a man).
I RECOMMEND it for couples as a good series to watch in the night (as I did with my girlfriend ... she was in "good" mode after it >.<)
The animation is above average, but some characters has too "unrealistic" appearance (ok ok, big boobs,we like those, but what the hell?). The music overall probably not too bad, or good either, as (read more)

The music overall probably not too bad, or good either, as I didn't remember a bit of it. Opening - ending is nice and slow, but skippable after saw it a few times. (show less)
This is an awesome series. I stronly reccomend it to anyone who likes hot anime girls and dragons. The way they have dragons that turn into ships and people is awesome and makes for some good anime.
