Yona of the Dawn

"It is wonderful to be a princess because you get the best dresses, jewels, servants, a bodyguard called Haku, and everything else any girl could wish for. The world is beautiful, colorful, and carefree, and if Daddy lets me marry my cousin Soo-won, I am not going to miss anything at all. However, my Papa is not in favor of marrying Soo-won, and when I try and talk him into it, there is a very unpleasant surprise..." SPOILER ALERT. You could sum up the main idea behind the show and the first few episodes by saying "How Princess Yona lost her illusions and, forced by circumstances, turned from a naive girl into a tough rebel and gathered a bunch of legendary dragons together." Too bad she did not get any further in this anime series. END OF SPOILERS. The transformation of the main female protagonist was very impressive, and it has a truly captivating narrative. There are a lot of emotions in this show and watching the main characters and their changing feelings is very interesting at times. It also gets very funny at times. Although I usually do not care for bishies, Haku is a cool guy. The animation is great, and the soundtrack complements it perfectly. Even though I am not a fan of Shoujo or reverse harem, this is a very good show, and if a second season comes out, I would be happy to watch it. 9/10. (14/11/2014)
