A list of good mangas set in Europe

manga that revolve around or feature dragons as major characters or companions! they could be friends, protagonists, wild animals, hunted beasts, or love interests, but to qualify for this list they must to have a significant impact on the plot and a bearing on the actions & lives of the characters. dragon-themed characters, provided they are protagonists or main cast, will also be accepted.

(updating!!)

manga about humans and their supernatural pets! these pets are either undefined lil weirdos, magical beasts, talking animals, eldritch beings, or mythical creatures-- and all very loved by their owners! to qualify, these pets must be markedly abnormal from a regular pet, either by appearance, species, mysterious abilities, or behaviour. the pet must be considered outside-of-normal either by their owners or strangers that encounter them and the owner may have to hide their abnormality from others. if the pet looks like a domestic animal but talks, and this is considered normal in-universe, the manga may still be considered for this stack. weird-looking pets that are normalised within the world they are set in may also be considered. the feeling of weirdness towards the pet can also be temporary for the entry to still count; after all, humans adapt to strange things very easily when they're cute!

for manga and manhua in which a humanoid character temporarily pretends to be a pet or a stray animal through a magical transformation, please see my other stack!: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/49298
