Disney+’s Dragons of Wonderhatch Trailer Highlights Live-Action/Anime Hybrid

Disney+ and Kodansha are teaming up for an exciting new series that blends together both anime and live-action elements, and fans have gotten a new look at what to expect from Dragons of Wonderhatch with a new trailer! Dragons of Wonderhatch was first announced to be in the works last year as one of the many aspects of Disney and Kodansha’s ongoing partnership, but it’s going to be a completely different kind of project than expected. This will be a new live-action series that will also feature fully anime segments to highlight the differences between its two worlds. 

Dragons of Wonderhatch features both a real world where a girl named Nagi (Sena Nakajima) crosses paths with a boy from another world named Tyme (Daiken Okudara). Tyme’s world is one where people and dragons work together (and is completely anime), and it’s going through a new kind of struggle as it starts crossing over with the live-action world. Check out the newest trailer for Dragons of Wonderhatch below to see more of this wild new project in action.
