Dragon Pilot: Hysone & Amp; MASOTAN

Pilots of Dragon is an anime that is available on Self-Defense Force.

Cross Ange: Rondo of Angels and Dragons

Angelise is the first princess of the Misurugi Empire. She is the celebrated ruler of the Empire until one day she discovers the shocking truth that she is a "Norma" - an irregular being who cannot use "Mana" and is treated as "things" rather than people.

Having her name taken from her, Ange isolates herself on a remote island. There, she encounters a group of Norma women who spend their days hunting dragons that have come to invade. Themes such as death, torture, abuse, martyrdom and human cruelty are addressed in the anime.

An anime has somewhat outdated traits and clings to some traditional Japanese clichés, but it also features characters with depth and genuine feelings, has a bit of mecha, and follows satisfying details for Berserk fans. One should not judge in the first episodes!
