Dragon Collection
Dragon Collection (ドラゴンコレクション, Doragon Korekushon) is a Japanese social network game created by Konami that was released on the GREE social networking platform in 2010. A manga adaptation titled Dragon Collection: Ryū o Suberu Mono was serialized from 2011 to 2012 in Kodansha's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Magazine.[2] It was collected in six tankōbon volumes. A trading card arcade game was released in 2013. An anime television series adaptation aired on April 7, 2014, alongside Monster Retsuden Oreca Battle, another Konami video game adaptation.[3] The series ended on March 23, 2015, but a bonus episode showing events after Hiro leaves Dragon Earth aired March 30, 2015. This show, along with Oreca Battle, lacks an ending theme, a hallmark of anime that premiered on TV Asahi.
