Mink is the daughter of a human warrior and a red dragon, and a big fan of warrior-idol Dick Saucer.
Dragon Half's production values are strictly average, but nonetheless it had me in stitches throughout; it's a shame though that there's only 2 episodes of it.

The back of Dragon Half's new DVD proclaims: "The funniest anime ever made."-Just about everybody; while this may not be entirely true, the fact that it is a riotous convolution of insanity, manic voice acting, and absolute rejection of plot.
Dragon Half, while older, is one of the foundations to that peculiar form of anime that posits the chibi and weird over story, plot, and other nessundry concerns.
I will not say that Dragon Half is a barometer of any sort, but it is a good introduction to the humorous side of anime just as Princess Mononoke is a good introduction to the more dramatic and artistic end.

 Asuka's Dragon Half
Dragon Half began as a manga series that was serialized in Dragon magazine (not to be confused with the American magazine of the same name), written and drawn by Ryuusuke Mita.
Not all went as planned, however, as Rouce fell in love with the dragon whom he wsa sent to kill and soonafter married her.
And from that union was born Mink, who bares characteristics of both parents: while she appears human for the most part, she has the additional draconian features of horns, wings, and a tail.

 Wizards Community - Half-Mist Dragon Template
A good way to look at it, would be to compare the power of the half-mist dragon without his spell-like abilities, to the power of a half-celestial with his spell-like abilities.
I would say that the other bonuses of a half-mist dragon are worth about LA +2, and the spell-like abilities are worth LA +1, for a total of +3.
I don't consider the half-mist dragon's two breath weapons to be unbalanced or a real advantage over a normal typical dragon's single breath weapon.

 AAW: Dragon Half Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
In a rather odd fantasy world lives Mink, a Dragon-Half--half red dragon and half human (dragon slayer, in fact; her father was commanded to slay a dragon, and ended up eloping with her).
There isn't much else to say, really, but just in case some exceptionally dense viewers might have missed the fact that Dragon Half doesn't have a serious frame in it, probably three quarters of the production is in SD (with the huge heads, and the chubby little bodies).
Anyway, Dragon Half is about as un-serious as anime comes, and it has as much absolutely ridiculous animation, fantasy parodies, really basic humor, and SD as you'll find anywhere.

The only difference is that Mink is half dragon or a "Dragon Half", so she has the body of a cute (as in fanservice) human, but also has the wings, tail and horns of a Dragon.
Dragon Half is quite unlike most anime you'll stumble across, and as a result it became a fan favourite because of it's own style of humour: a blend of slapstick with a touch of a RPG thrown in.
Dragon Half was a favourite among fans before ADV acquired it, and only the brave attempted to sing the Beethoven symphony-backed ending theme about cooking with eggs at any anime convention Karaoke sessions!

Third, interbreeding is not possible while a dragon is using a normal polymorph self spell, so a red dragon or shadow dragon with a fourth-level spell slot could not impregnate a human or demihuman female.
Indeed, in Greyhawk, being the descendant of a dragon gives weight to a half-dragon's social and political status as the dragon parent is assumed to be available to perform a favor or two or to offer advice, regardless of whether this is actually true.

The swordsman and the dragon were happily (well, sort of) married, and gave birth to a Dragon-Half daughter named Mink, gifted with all the charms of an über-kawaii teenaged girl and all the fire-breathing, block-busting powers of a dragon.
Dragon Half is about as unashamedly comedy-oriented and irreverent as you could possibly imagine, and it seeps into every aspect of the anime.
Fortunately for the viewer, Dragon Half also manages to pull it off nearly flawlessly at a frenetic never-catch-your-breath pace.
