Yona of the Dawn

Nov 4, 2019

I made an account just to review this anime! Overall: I gave this anime a 9.5/10 because I came in with very low expectations. Shoujo anime are usually kind of cliche and full of toxic stereotypes like damsels in distress or toxic masculine love interests, etc. However, Akatsuki no Yona went above and beyond my expectations! I also read the manga in about ~3 days (183 chapters) because it was just that good!! The story is very plot-centric and reminds me of Fushigi Yuugi, also a reverse harem anime with a similar (not as strong) female main character. I loved the balance of serious plot and comedic...
