Today's post is on Yona of the Dawn, volume 2 by Mizuho Kusanagi. It is the second in her Yona of the Dawn series. It is 190 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has Princess Yona and Hak on it as they are running. The intended reader is someone who likes epic high fantasy, shojo manga, and revenge plots. There is no foul language, no sex, but there is violence in this story. The story is told from third person close mostly of Yona but some of Hak her bodyguard. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- While on the run, Yona and Hak head to Hak's hometown, where she attempts to heal her broken heart. However, she can't rest there for long once she discovers that Su-won may soon becomes king! What will Yona choose to do in the wake of this news?
Review- This volume picks up right there the last left off. Hak and Yona get to his hometown, the Wind Village, and are taken into safety. But Su-won is moving forward with his plans to rule the nation but the Wind Village withholds their support because Hak's grandfather knows that Su-won had something to do with the murder of the previous King. Yona has to choose what she is going to do. Is she going to live a quiet life hiding in the Wind Village or is she going to try and find a priest to see what her destiny should be. I liked how much plot we get in this volume and we get to see that Hak does love Yona but she does not see it not just because of Su-won but because he is hiding it. We get action in this volume as Su-won wants Yona back and Hak dead but we do not get to see why. I cannot wait to read the next volume.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
