There was a Netflix show called Drifting Dragons I started on. Looks super nice, seems decently written. Its about a crewed ship that goes around hunting and killing dragons for their meat and other bits to sell and eat.

As I'm watching it by about episode 3 I was like... wait a minute, these motherfuckers made whalehunting propaganda and put a thick layer of fantasy anime paint on it. Dropped it right there.

Edit: FWIW I came to the propaganda conclusion a lot faster with Gate (tldr fantasy warp gate opens in Japan. JSDF blows up dragons with fighter jets) but I still watched clips of the fights cuz that shit was funny as fuck.

JSDF blows up dragons with fighter jets

When did they make Drakengard a TV show?

Not as good as Drakengaard (owing to the aforementioned propaganda feel) but nonetheless - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm3bGKMYM_w
