What is CROSS ANGE Rondo of Angel and Dragon?#
CROSS ANGE Rondo of Angel and Dragon is a high-energy blend of action, drama, and fantasy. The story follows a world where humanity has flourished thanks to a magical information technology called “Mana,” which has effectively ended war and pollution.
At the center of this utopia is the Empress Angelese of the Misurugi Empire, a privileged girl who suddenly discovers she is a “Norma”—a human unable to use Mana. Branded an outcast and stripped of her status, she is exiled to an isolated island. There, she discovers the truth about the Normas: they are the world’s secret defenders, piloting humanoid weapons known as Para-mails to fight off dragon invaders from another dimension.
If you are looking to start the series, you can watch the anime on Prime Video.
