Akatsuki no Yona - Prinzessin der Morgendämmerung - Die komplette Serie

If you like historical fantasy animes with legends, kings, kingdoms, armies, dragons, very good action scenes and the handsomest! Boys this one is for you. Its sweet, its funny, but it is serious and its heartbreaking. Just the right amount of romance, adventure, humour, tragedy, fights, politics, love, and of course badass dragon warriors. The animation is beautiful. Yona has one of the best character developments I've come across in this type of anime. And other characters are so well written overall, they all have their own backstories and motives, no one is shallow or overlooked. Its a well crafted universe. The plot is coming together slowly but beautifully. Nicely done reverse harem where the heroine is not stupid,naive or overly dependent on others around her but instead she can decide for herself and in fact (well, spoiler!) is "the brain of the operation". She is noble, she is smart, she is courageous. We stan Yona.

I dont understand who in their right mind would not continue with the second season, especially while the manga is still coming out and there is enough content for at least another 2 seasons ( anime follows the first 47 chapters and right now there are 208). The story was so good and the first season was left with the cliffhanger so i HAD to continue reading the manga and oh boy what a good read it was. (Again, a lil spoiler) At the end of the season we are introduced to the yellow dragon Zeno and that is the point where the dragon warriors are finally gathered and ready to go rain down hell on Yonas enemies (symbolically speaking). And thats where they decided to stop. Just when things were going to get even more better. Such a shame, the later seasons would definitely be better than the first one. I hope someone will see the potential and set things right. MEANWHILE if you want to continue the journey I highly suggest you read the manga. It's really, reeeaalllyyy good.

P. S. If you plan on reading the manga later, dont watch OVAs because they will spoil the 104-107 (i think so but im not 100% sure) chapters for you. I recommend first reading it and then watching it.

I really really liked this anime! After finishing though I am left with a lot of questions and anticipation. There is no real word that this show is coming back but I have learned with anime that you need the patience of saint. We have to wait for a long period of time for more but 90% of the time we are not left disappointed! You will love the characters and watching this unique group come together!

I need season 2! This show stops around the equivalent of volume 8 or 9 in the manga. The manga is still being written. If you like mythology, strong characters, lots of emotions, and hilarious banter, you may enjoy this anime.

I need season two!

SEASON 2

SEASON 2

She turns you off at first but you just wait for it... SHE comes back with a sucker punch and becomes one of your favorite characters.

After the betrayal of her beloved cousin Su-won, Princess Yona is forced to flee the palace only with Hak, who is both her childhood friend and bodyguard. After meeting the Oracle, they set on finding four guys who inherited dragons' blood to help her survive. During her journey, she soon discovers that her kingdom is not the idyllic place she was lead to believe and starts doing some things to change that.

I absolutely love this anime. Yona especially is evolving a lot throughout the season and her character arch from helpless girl to badass warrior is absolutely amazing. There are also sparks of romance in the air, from both Hak, her loyal and extremely hot bodyguard, and Su-won, the handsome cousin who is a guy you just gotta love to hate and hate to love (at first you might just think he's a villain, but it turns out it's far more complicated than this). I highly, highly recommend this if you like watching people fight and struggle but also create bonds and relationships that last a lifetime. Best way to categorize this masterpiece would be as an adventurous fantasy romance. It certainly gives you chills, in a good way, and toys with your emotions. I highly recommend watching.

PS: The squirrel eating meat and fish was creepy though. I don't know why they had to do it. I don't remember this being the case in the manga. I mean, it's a freaking squirrel. Give him some nuts instead.
