This is my first review so I hope I can convince some people and give a reasonable, accurate review on this anime. Lets jump right in. (Contains a spoiler of the first episode)

Story: The story is about three childhood friends who have grown up. One, a young princess named Yona. Second, a young man who later becomes the bodyguard of Yona and a general in the army, Hak, and a handsome man named Su-won who Yona is madly in love with. Yona has arguments with her father, the king, about Su-won and her desire to marry him, but her father rejects the idea while Hak ... encourages it. On the night of her sixteenth birthday, she goes to her father to try and convince him one more time to let her marry su-won, she finds that her father had been assassinated, and the only one in the room other than her and her now dead father, was her lover, su-won. Now on the run, Hak and Yona must escape the forces of her old kingdom and find a way to take down their former childhood friend.

Art: The art is typical for an anime but it still is pretty good. In a way, it kind of stands out when it comes to the character's design and it's creative.

Sound: The background noise is absolutely great. The music and sound effects are spot on and set the mood perfectly.

Character: The characters, Yona, Hak, Su-won and some other side characters introduce themselves perfectly and you will get an attachment and understanding to them just fine. Yona is a fragile, spoiled girl at first but she blooms into a fierce, proud young woman later on. Hak is a strong willed warrior who will do anything to protect the princess. Su-won was a cheerful, bright kind of guy to be around. He was always smiling and gave people comfort just being around them, he soon becomes the opposite of that later on.

Enjoyment: This is a pretty enjoyable anime. It has its serious moments but also has incredible humor mixed in to lighten the mood most times. This is a great anime for those into drama/action/adventure. It's still unsure how many episodes this show will have, but lets hope for those who enjoy it (including myself) it doesn't end anytime soon.
