== Plot ==
Set in the New York City borough of Manhattan, this animated series tells the story of a Chinese-American boy named Jake Long, who must balance ordinary adolescence with the ability to change into a dragon. When he eventually unlocks his full potential and turns into the American Dragon, he has to overcome obstacles to protect the magical creatures living in the city, but as his ordinary self, Jake has issues with his deep crush on his schoolmate Rose who, unbeknownst to Jake, has a dark, magical secret of her own. She is a natural dragon-slayer known as the Huntsgirl, a member of the Huntsclan, a cult of ninjas that slays mythical creatures and who Jake has fought consistently. The leader of the Huntsclan is the Huntsman who raised Rose.
Jake navigates the city with his two best friends, Trixie Carter and Arthur P. "Spud" Spudinski. When Jake gets home, it is to an extended family who all live together: Jake, his sister, their parents, and Jake's maternal grandfather Lao Shi. Jonathan, a businessman dad originally from the Midwest, is unaware that he is married into a family of dragons from his Chinese wife Susan (who lacks any dragon abilities, which skipped her generation). Lao Shi trains Jake in the magical, mystical ways of the dragons. Jake also cares very deeply for his annoying, overachieving, and seemingly perfect younger sister Haley (a nascent dragon), despite feeling like he is stuck in her small shadow. Grandpa's cynical sidekick, a magical talking Shar-Pei named Fu Dog, is Jake's animal guardian and other best friend.
