A small kingdom trying to stand up to its powerful neighbors; war and how it affects the life of ordinary people; a initially fragile young girl who has to face a task too big for her, and her journey of growth as she and her allies face trial after trial in order to save their homeland. Akatsuki no Yona is more well-polished. Characters are lovable and the story has well-balanced dramatic and funny moments. It feels like the author knew from the start where Yona's path will take her. Itsuwari no Freja has some interesting ideas and turnabouts, but the story gets inconsistent sometimes; some scenes are straight-up weird, albeit funny. It's still not clear if the author had a fixed outcome in mind, but so far it's been a pretty interesting manga to keep up with. read more 

Children of the Whales and Prince Freya are not your stereotypical, lovey-dovey high school romance shoujo manga. They are instead far more mature series that feature war set in fictional non-contemporary settings with a decent amount of blood and death being fairly common occurrences. The main character is really sensitive and emotional, but later will learn to deal with some bloody violence. The art work in both manga are also really pretty, so there's still a bit of shoujo flair to these very brutal stories. 

The Prince in His Dark Days and Prince Freya are two shoujo series where the female protagonist meets a male character who looks exactly like them. He is also in a higher position of power than her, and when he is out of the picture, our main character impersonates him so that chaos will not ensue. Despite one of them set in our present and the other a medieval fantasy, both series have similar appeal in their art style and some character interactions. 

In both series a young girl has to take responsibility for saving their country by taking the place of an identical boy that people rely on for hope. Sarasa and Freya both go on adventures, gathering allies in order to fight against tyranny. 

Both stories feature a protagonist that—for some reason—resembles the crown prince or princess. When that royal dies, the protagonist must take their place.
