If you like historical fantasy animes with legends, kings, kingdoms, armies, dragons, very good action scenes and the handsomest! Boys this one is for you. Its sweet, its funny, but it is serious and its heartbreaking. Just the right amount of romance, adventure, humour, tragedy, fights, politics, love, and of course badass dragon warriors. The animation is beautiful. Yona has one of the best character developments I've come across in this type of anime. And other characters are so well written overall, they all have their own backstories and motives, no one is shallow or overlooked. Its a well crafted universe. The plot is coming together slowly but beautifully. Nicely done reverse harem where the heroine is not stupid,naive or overly dependent on others around her but instead she can decide for herself and in fact (well, spoiler!) is "the brain of the operation". She is noble, she is smart, she is courageous. We stan Yona.
I dont understand who in their right mind would not continue with the second season, especially while the manga is still coming out and there is enough content for at least another 2 seasons ( anime follows the first 47 chapters and right now there are 208). The story was so good and the first season was left with the cliffhanger so i HAD to continue reading the manga and oh boy what a good read it was. (Again, a lil spoiler) At the end of the season we are introduced to the yellow dragon Zeno and that is the point where the dragon warriors are finally gathered and ready to go rain down hell on Yonas enemies (symbolically speaking). And thats where they decided to stop. Just when things were going to get even more better. Such a shame, the later seasons would definitely be better than the first one. I hope someone will see the potential and set things right. MEANWHILE if you want to continue the journey I highly suggest you read the manga. It's really, reeeaalllyyy good.
P. S. If you plan on reading the manga later, dont watch OVAs because they will spoil the 104-107 (i think so but im not 100% sure) chapters for you. I recommend first reading it and then watching it.
