Dragon Circus 1 By Shimizu, Eiichi

DEATH TO ALL DRAGONS! The sudden appearance of massive monsters known as ''Dragons'' throws the world into chaos. The New United Nations, created as a response to the threat, puts together a team known as the Dragonslayers, including (among others) a vampire, an android, a witch, the animated remains of the legendary ogre Shuten Doji, and....a little girl?! Ace pilot Momo may still be in grade school, but she just might have the skills to save humankind. Taut action, propulsive storytelling, and sly humour take this seinen action series to new heights and unexpected places! On the fateful day the dragons first appeared, Dr. Abe''s beloved died in the inital onslaught. Now he has created an android in his own image: the DS-08 ''Shikigami,'' part of the NUN (New United Nations)''s top secret project to counter this monstrous invasion. In addition to the Shikigami, this team of ''Dragonslayers'' is comprised of members of the many races that have up till now lived in obscurity: elves, dwarves, witches, vampires, and more... As the team assembles to fight off the massive and mysterious creatures that now menace humanity, however, one member stands apart from the rest: Momo Agatsuma, the young daughter of an NUN scientist and ace pilot par excellence. Together this motley crew must fend of the greatest threat the world has ever faced...!
