| Can Hak be anymore unoriginal? |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Great episode, that transformation. |
 |
| 5/5 Episode beautiful, a classic event repeated many times in the shojo, but it is so well made that the déjà vu I was not even touched the thought. The OST took me completely, during the narration was involved 100% in the last part, a bit less at the beginning. Nice designs, animations of good standard. I do not pronounce on gags seen, not being very well-aimed, give some originality to the plot. |
 |
| Good job Yona. You got your first kill right there by tackling an archer. |
| Yona was kickass in this episode but only at the end |
| Holy shit. This show is good. I kept waiting waiting to be offended by lame story progression or dumb characters of the typical (reverse) harem fare but nope I'm just falling more and more in love with these characters every episode. I can see why it seemed to remain on the radar of the anime community long after the initial impression week. There hasn't been any giant shoujo hits in the West for a while, but if I had the ability to pick the next big shoujo hit, it'd be this. I even like Hak and I tend to dislike shoujo male leads. And it's Asian (Korean to boot!!) fantasy, which is completely my thing, yeah. |
| That development at the end. O: I was thinking she'd fire an arrow, but I guess dashing in is an even bolder move (and smarter assuming she hasn't had practice). I'm so hyped for the next episode. |
| When I first saw the cover of the animals and read the synopsis I thought it may even be not bad (I haven't read the Manga) the girl on the cover looked pretty determined and the fact she held a sword maybe me hope that she is strong. There just so many animes that disappoint me ever time I'm excited to watch them and the main point of disappointment are the female characters. They are often just so annoying and dump but they still give them some weapons so they appear bahasa but in reality they only mess up and scream -_- Well until this episode I didn't really believe Yona gonna become a decent female character but now, now I'm looking forward to the next episodes! I kinda love this animes already :DI love how they gracefully switched between the childhood, some time before the present and than back to present. We could feel Yona's change even more with her voice. First her voice was so high as a little girl that still high and girly with 16 and now that she realized that she has to become strong, to protect her people and to mature up her voice got this strong tone of a woman. |
| Can Hak be any more awesome. Yona's character development begins! |
 |
| "Look, Princess. There's nature everywhere." LMAO! I also LOL'd when Yona bumped that archer off the cliff. Was that meant to be funny? XD Hak is such a cute badass. Yona's fiery eyes were awesome. |
 |
| Now this is more like it! Yona is finally starting to become a badass! Those fiery eyes of her's were savage. The comedy sprinkled into the fight scenes was a nice touch. Great episode. Easily the best one so far. 8.5/10 |
| dat little boy crying scene hit really hit me hard... this shit has huge potential for a rare 9 to 10 rating from me might be a bit bias b/c i fuckin' loved Kingdom good shit is good |
 |
| Ergh, really? First pathetic and melodramatic crying that screamed "We want your feelz!". Then unnecessary and ill-fit comedy that really ruined all the drama. And finallly, one invincible hero that deflects arrows like none other and doesn't even care he was shot. Not to mention that enemy commander was such fool he let princess talk and act when she went out of the bush. And what's with those misfit bishounen fanservice moments? They really want us to believe in trainwreck like that? They really made themself clear that Yona is character type that acts foolishly without any real strategy. And I really hate those characters. |
| Aaah the shoujo nonsense had to start somewhere. "Give yourself to me"... Yeah, right. After making such a fuss, she better not start whining and crying again :p "Someone who doesn't understand reason" ? Sorry to say, but that's exactly what you are, Princess... |
| Glad Yona pushed that bitched off the cliff ha. I wish she had some kind of weapon. |
| Omg how cute Hak's little brother is. So the real journey has begun. The beginning was nice between Hak and Yona. These are definitely not only feels for a friend. All the scenes between them sooo good <3 I love the fight style of Hak. I think I never saw a main character with a spear, so it's new for me. Even the people of the fire clan were impressed of him. And that ending.....it seems Yona got serious with these fiery eyes and hair. Give me more pls ^^ |
 |
| Badass Hak and badass Yona in this one. ^^ |
| Thunder Best shows his fangs! That was some epic fighting, showed those fire nation jerks who's boss! |
| took me almost 5 hrs to finish the hours. god the first half was boring. the second half though, finally! progress. my feelings for hak go from disgust and anger to acceptance. when will he stop making unwelcome moves towards yona? ugh |
 |
| This show has become surprisingly good. |
| :) |
| This shoujo seems different,it should be really good,Yona is somewhat cute <3 |
Ragna92 said: Can Hak be any more awesome. Yona's character development begins! Yeah definitely he is my fave character so far , finally she has realized her true feeling and goal. |
 |
| Can't wait to see the badass side from Yona, and also Hak! With just a glare and reasoning, she was able to make that fire prince speechless. AMAZING. LOL @ the scene wherein Hak said "Look, princess. There's nature everywhere..." while both of them were ignoring the dude. |
 |
| Isn't yanking out an arrow a bad idea? |
 |
| Man, Hak is badass. Really like this show. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Yeezus... Hak has to do so much to keep her safe and that preview tho |
 |
| Yay, princess progress C: LOL when that foot soldier was impressed with Hak's leap xD he is beautiful, yes ;A; I agree~~~ |
| Yona getting serious,that was a pretty intense moment. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Hell yeah! Yona is beginning to find her resolve and also being brave. That scene when Yona's glare froze that guy was epic! Hak is a one-man-army, these soldiers are no match for him as long as he's in a great condition. |
  |
| Haeng-dae being "dead" is a running gag now. Hak is completely loyal to Yona. When Yona pushed the fire tribe guy was so funny. Like how she worked up the resolve to confront gang tae jun tout of concern for the Wind tribe. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Tae Yeon was so adorable those burning eyes a great moment for me. |
| Nice episode but that fire guy is kinda annoying. Unless she is not transforming into some princess like big dragon and burning his butt away I dont get how he can just stand there like an idiot. Not that I am rooting for him just ffs what is he doing? |
 |
| I love when Hak harrasses Yona with the sexual jokes |
 |
| This dude fights like he's a character in Dynasty Warriors lmao |
No watch list sig cuz "You watch anime in 3 days or 3 months! Such is the proper way!" |
| They are lucky these fire people are not that good at their jobs with the exception of the I brought poisened arrow guy. The comedy still working and everything else is fine. |
