Yona of the Dawn, Vol. 4

Fantastic series! The storyline is good from the start but just gets better as you go, characters are great, and the artwork is beautiful. This is easily in my top 5 manga. I'd recommend it for anyone, but especially those who enjoy Fantasy Shoujo with some light action and political intrigue.

Buena historia a mi hermana le encanta y fue un regalo

love, love, love these books.

In volume four, we are introduced to the 2nd dragon, the Seiryuu (or Blue Dragon). Seiryuu is easily on of my favorite characters in the entire series, along with his adorable side-kick Ao, and has one of the most memorable back stories in my opinion. I also found this volume to be particularly funny. There are some really great comedic moments here, even if some are subtle. Having already read this volume after it was released in Japan (several times, I'll admit), I was still laughing at jokes I've read a few times before.A side note - the artwork for Seiryuu is STUNNING I must say. I'm a big fan of Kusanagi's work to start, but the attention to detail with Seiryuu's entire look is pretty amazing, I must say.

(REPOST of previous reviews) I love the series, and I'm all caught up with the recent chapters supporting the scanlations.. I'm enamored with the plot and characters in general. It has everything: fantasy, romance, political strife, and a strong-willed shoujo character that's not a Mary-Sue. Not to mention, the art is beautiful. Having read manga online for so many years (15+ years), I decided to support the actual publication by buying my own copies. Super satisfied. It came in the mail in great condition, and I know I'll treasure it alongside my other manga. Super, super recommended read. Although the shoujo genre has had great female main characters, Akatsuki no Yona is one that manages to grow on you with great character development, avoiding the common tropes of backpedaling on previously established plot details. This will be a great buy for anyone of all ages and groups.Additional: It arrived promptly on Tuesday, 2018JAN30. I'm so happy with the artwork. There aren't any indentations, scratches, etc. on the book, which is great. Very happy.
