Dragon-san Wants a Friend

Summary of the Dragon-san Wants a Friend

Okay, so this novel... it starts super relatable, right? A girl in a new uni dorm, feeling super lonely because she’s basically the last person nobody wants to be around. She's desperate for connection, maybe trying *anything* to fit in and finally have some friends. Then BAM! Something totally unexpected happens – a banana peel fiasco on the stairs during her big move into town or heading to that first social event.

And then... surprise twist! Instead of just being sad about it, she actually passes away right there from the fall. You know, like in those kinds of dramatic ways web novels love. But here’s the weird part: reincarnation drama unfolds, and guess what? She lands not just any dragon role, but *the* strongest dragon species! It feels almost unfair how sudden this is.

Now she's got power beyond her wildest dreams – all that dragon stuff – but instead of feeling like a complete outcast from society or finding peace in the new world, she hits an existential crisis. That famous line pops up again: **“Dragon-san Wants a Friend”**, which feels hilariously ironic given everything that just happened. She looks around at her new draconic life and wonders if the whole "making friends" thing was maybe pointless now.

The story takes off from this super unexpected pivot point – this character who almost died trying to be normal, ends up as an über-powerful being with a fundamentally unchanged wish (or maybe she questions it entirely). It's gotta follow *her* journey from dragon power fantasy back into the weird emotional space of wanting connection.
