love this volume! it’s getting dark and intense, also finally i can see Yona’s fight. how they tried to save the water tribe is incredible, and Riri is such a good character arc, i love her.

I'm so impressed by the quality of Kusanagi's work. Her earlier series were very good, with a lot of potential and usually good character development, but some were a little weak, and some of them had badly placed/too much humor for the plot. This series is so perfectly balanced, with on-key humor and plot, and such intense serious moments. And the characters are the best. Sometimes I think about this, and I'm just so impressed, and so happy about it. I just love this series so, so much.
Okay, anyway.
Yona is badly injured, but she continues to fight anyway. She stays strong, and it inspires Riri. The dragons and Hak, on the other hand, are extremely worried, and feel awful for not guarding her correctly. Yona, on the other hand, feels bad for not being stronger. It's a sad, touching moment, seeing them all struggle with this.
During the fight, though, Yona gets on the bad side of Hyo, the man behind all of this. But, while his pride is wounded and he wants her dead, they're all in search of him just as seriously. More so, even.
There's a surprising turn of events in the latter half of the volume, as we see Su-Won again. I really want to hate him, but he intrigues me, and then he does something good... I'm conflicted about him. But it's interesting to see him and Yona actually interacting; they are on very uneven ground with each other, but they also kind-of have an understanding. I'm curious about where that's going to go next. I'm also curious about Zeno—it's a little unclear what his power is, what his position and what he knows.
This series cannot come out fast enough. I need more.

Another great volume
This volume is really good it adds much to the story. The characters are amazing as always I liked reading more about Riri also it seems like Su Won is in this Yona is reacting less harshly because of what they are trying to do although she does not want him near Riri. The story is really good it picks up right where it left off with Yona defending herself against drug smugglers she is helped they blame themselves for her getting hurt and they continue to look for the drug smuggling leader meet up with Riri after awhile Su Won is there now they just have to stop the smugglers looking forward to reading more.
