~ Getting into the manga after rewatching the anime for the 4tht time ~
It's sooooooo goooood! Fantasy, adventure, court politics and so much HUMOR!
It's all balanced perfectly and the characters are so lovable! Yona's arc : her journey to get stronger for her country is so interesting and we even get Soo-won's POV to get the full picture... and I must admit, I don't dislike him and I'm even a little impressed.
Not forgetting the dragoooooons <3 Shin-ah <3 Jae-ha <3
HAK <3 and Ao ;)
So happy to know where this is all going!
I've been curious since I discovered the anime 3 or 4 years ago :p

In the first quarter of this volume, we get to meet the fourth dragon, and get settled a little with Yona and the group. At the end of the volume, we also get to see how she's dealing with her interaction with Su-won, and how Hak is reacting as well.
Aside from that, though, the rest of the volume is taken up with Su-won visiting one of the palaces. He acts like a good guy, not very serious or smart, when he's really manipulating everything without them all noticing, up until the end. Mostly it's for good reasons, at least that we know of so far. It's an interesting plot point, which was important and makes sense. But it was also boring to me and took me forever to finish, both because I don't care for Su-won, and because I had already seen it in the anime.
Hopefully we'll get something new next, and I can't wait to get back into this.

La première partie était un peu longue. Mais cela a montrer à certains commandant que le nouveau roi n’était pas si naïf que ça.
La 2nd partie avec Yona qui souhaite apprendre à manier l’épée j’ai adoré.
