Princess Yona - Blog Posts
Yona gets so much hate and she doesn't even deserve it like "She broke up Link and Sidon! 🥺" Shut the fuck up.
I just got back into the AkaYona fandom and decided to catch up with the manga...
I am in SHAMBLES
hak has loved yona for YEARS, and now she loves him back just as much. he’s always been so protective of her. always putting aside his own feelings just so yona can live the life she deserves. never in a million years did he think yona could love him back. the two of them have been by each other's side since childhood, and now they’ll love one another for the rest of their lives. their love story is one for the ages <3
yona of the dawn 264 thoughts
as always, this chapter was insanely well written. chapter 263 was already "creepy" enough with the dragon gods pretending to be the dragon warriors, but this chapter made things so much scarier.
the dragon gods making a hak clone just to make yona stay was so infuriating. all of her loved ones being used as puppets to keep her stuck in the chalice while yona fights for her way out was so heartbreaking to read.
yona is incredibly resilient, and even when facing the gods themselves, she doesn't back down. she loves the dragons more than anything and has already decided she won't leave them behind no matter what. it's what king hiryuu wanted, and yona will carry his dream out.
hearing the dragon gods say yona is going to the heavens brought me to tears. although she's willing to sacrifice herself to save her loved ones, it's another thing entirely to come face to face with the idea she will never see them again. her terrified face as she falls through the flowers is a beautifully haunting scene. the art and scenery are gorgeous, but the reality of the situation is awful. she has so much to live for and do, and yet it seems like there's no chance for her happiness at the moment. she was given a chance to save them but at the cost of her own life? i don't think she ever thought a moment like this could happen. after all, she always envisioned her reuniting with the dragons and live together again.
finally, seeing the dragons again made me so happy to know that they ARE, in fact, alive, but the scene after made me so anxious. becoming humans at the expense of yona's life isn't something nobody wants. even if zeno is willing to do anything to die, he says he needs to bring yona back to the real world. doesn't matter if zeno no longer sees himself as a part of yona's dragon family; at the end of the day, he will protect her.
zeno's face in this panel tells me he knows what happened to yona. this is one of the most anxiety-inducing cliffhangers we had in a while. i believe the series will end with everyone together, but i have no idea how yona will make it out of this. i'm assuming that zeno might put himself in a life or death situation to bring yona back. or perhaps it's yona herself that has to come back to earth.
this chapter was so insane but so amazing. i'm so excited and very scared for what comes next.
new hakyona art!!
i’m obsessed with this new autumn official art!! the colors, the outfits, the birds, ao in the bottom with hoh! hakyona always look so beautiful but in this art they are SO perfect!!! they look so cozy reading the book together. the overall vibe is just so comforting, i’m obsessed!! AND HAK WEARING THE NECKLACE!!! kusanagi is so talented!!
hakyona volume cover 24
I think many of us can agree that Kusanagi has made many beautiful covers throughout the years, but one cover that sticks out to me the most is volume 24.
It's so simple, but it highlights Hakyona's development. Hak has always been the one to protect Yona, from protecting her from falling off a cliff to using his super strength to protect her from invaders, and so on. But Yona has also gathered the strength to protect her loved ones. She's no longer the naive princess but now a powerful, independent woman who can not only defend herself but her loved ones too. As Hak is protecting Yona, Yona is protecting Hak.
These two will do anything to save one another. If it means putting them in harm's way, they will bravely put themselves in danger if it means their loved one is safe and sound. This cover is just so well done and beautiful; it makes me so happy!
