Is this a cute slice of life or something with action? Since it is published in jump. I can't quite tell from reading about it without spoiling myself. Anilist has Iyashikei as a tag?

It's cute slice of life with no action.

The MC just happens to be half-dragon and the series is about dealing with each of her over-the-top superpowers as they manifest, and also social stuff.

I've been really appreciating the much more mature and serious tone the series takes with social drama, and the dragon stuff is instead what is used to keep the series fun and light-hearted.

Thanks, I think I'll check it out when it comes. Kind of sounds like a more serious Ika Musume. Hopefully not too serious.

I happened to read this recently. It’s mostly slice of life with a little “what weird things can my body do now that I’m part dragon?” I wouldn’t say there’s any action from what I’ve seen.

It’s kind of funny though, I don’t read much manga, but this is the second time in a row where I happened to read something only to find out Kyoani was going to adapt it not long after. Last one was CITY.

I think I'll check it out when it comes out. And CITY was very good!

So far it's mostly been slice-of-life, but recent chapters seem to be hinting that it's meant to build up to a bigger conflict.

Thanks for your input.
