Welp and the journey continues.

Doesn't look like they are ever safe either but I think Hak has good instinct. Action was pretty good this episode imo thanks to Hak. I just love the way he fights with his trusty spear. Pretty intense episode overall. I'm starting to like Yona's desire to live especially with that fire in her eyes.

The brother is so cute! Though the childhood guy is already prepared to go on long journey alone. Nobu's character saying something touching: Everyone's family, when she saw people injured. So she decided she is leaving, too. So KENN's character realized that she's princess. At first he rejected, but with "I want you", he agreed from being embarrassed.

lol @ the tease, but it was his act for realizing people (led by Fire tribe). And how they ignored Sakurai-san's character. Arrow with Poison? She realized and became stronger enough to fight against Sakurai-san's character.

Time to lose her long hair?

Yona thanking the little brother ^^

It was quite the scene to not see Yona give up and managed to convince Hak to bring her along!

Hak managing to destroy all the arrows and killing some of the soldiers! The arrow being poisoned!

Yona's intimidating glare yet filled with charisma that the fire heir feels mesmerized!
Her fiery eyes radiating through her hair! I liked how Yona managed to tackle the bowman.

Wow! Pierrot really do excellent on something like this!
I didn't thought that Hak was extremely cool on that fight scene when reading the manga!
Thank you very much Studio Pierrot! Can't wait for the next episode next week!

Amazing episode!!! This adaption has been pretty damn perfect so far >.<!!

What's that adorable creature O_o? Poor Tae-yon when he found out Yona's leaving as well. His "Na~nda" was so sad T^T

Dat Yona development!!! Loved how she told Hak to come with her rather than her asking to accompany him instead :3 And her "I want you to give urself to me" was nice :D

Hak getting flustered at her saying she'd snuggle with him if it's cold was cute <3

Hak was Beast! Dude's too BA! Protecting her while kicking ass like that :D

Lol'd at how they ignored Tae-jun and started admiring the nature XD

Loved the ending with Yona being BA so much!! Those burning eyes were so awesome!! Tae-jun is pissing his pants :P

Nxt ep is gonna be so good >.<!!

whaaa what a cliff hanger, kinda. The way Yona changed that instant, and actually scary (to others) was pretty cool.
Hak and his spear.

I wonder what will happen next!! can't wait!

I'm satisfied with Yona's development; I want her to take her time. If the series was a few episodes in and Yona is suddenly a badass it would feel rushed.
Signature is too edgy for me.

I know. What I meant was that she found her will to fight, or at least that she doesn't want to be a burden to Hak anymore.

Hak is like a one man army, jeez. It's almost like nothing can get in his way. Even while in the heat of the battle, he still remains calm and retains his awesome sense of humour. Yona is very lucky to have him around, that's for sure.

Ah, I wish the episode was just a tad bit longer! The part near the ending was very enjoyable.

I think they are both evened out. I see some people not liking that approach, but I personally love it. The OST itself is powerful and conveys most of their emotions. That's a very nice touch IMO.

I have only one thing to say about Yona, KAWAIIIIIII~~


She looks super duper kawaii with her long red hair. She shouldn't cut it.

I think Hak seems too much powerful. Like those super duper one hit killing protagonists. He should get some challenges which test his strength to the max. I do hope he doesn't remain this over powerful and shows some limits in strength.

Yona standing against that loser from the fire tribe was cool. She looked terrifying yet kawaii.

So Soo-Won has the complete support of the fire tribe. The fire tribe was suspicious before because they readily accepted Soo-Won as the king and also accepted to torment the wind tribe. It wasn't that surprising but I didn't expect that fire guy to tell Yona that he knows the truth.

I love how things are progressing. Not too fast nor too slow. The pacing is just right.

Nope. They were standing on the cliff and a soldier fired an arrow and a small boy with blonde hair intercepted it. Hak has black hair, so he is a no go.

What makes Yona so great is her stubbornness. She says selfish things like she wants Hak instead of saying that she wants to leave with him. Even though she has nothin to offer, she still wants Hak X) Hak can't win against this selfish princess haha. Yona was awesome for knocking the dude off the cliff. She was going to be obediant and listen to Hak, but then she realized that she didn't leave Capitol Fuuga to be protected by Hak. Her determined eyes along with the fiery red hair was a sight to see. Pierrot did a great job with the effects on Yona's hair. This was a really exciting episode, Thunder Beast too cool, and Yona slowly becoming mentally stronger.

Promising start for Yona but I hope her character development from here on out is handled with a subtle progression instead of what I often see in anime where characters do 180s in a single episode/short time frame. That's not how people grow in my opinion

Tae-yon crying at Hak and Yona's departure was quite sad. Poor little guy.. T_T

> "But I want you! Give yourself to me, Hak!"
What a way to to convince him! Good going, Yona. :3

Beast guy Hak owning those soldiers all the while protecting Yona was awesome! Why so badass? >.<

Tae-jun's being ignored by those two as he was about to introduce himself was hilarious! "Mite kudasai, Hime-sama. Shizen ga ippai da." XD

Yona's serious eyes was pretty scary! Even I was startled a bit at how sudden it was!

Great episode! Looks forward Yona becoming a badass by next week! Them burning eyes are amazing!

As a reader of the manga, I have to give it my all and say "Good Job, Studio Pierrot!"

The real fun part is far from anywhere near here! I was kind of skeptical when they showed Yona as the leader of the rebellion in the early episodes. But I think that was done to entice fans who haven't been following the manga.

N-Not that it matters to me or anything... I-I find the ratings for this anime making a mockery of good such a good show. Hmph... I am not talking in AkaYona threads anymore!

The action scenes are always exciting. Hak really can solo the whole army.

However, that Fire Tribe guy is an idiot. Why was he afraid of Yona, who isn't even armed? Rather than talking to her, he could have won just by killing her right on the spot.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Also, I may need to give a reminder that he likes Yona or probably always showed that he liked her just to become the king. Plus, he seems pretty cowardly.
