The story takes place in a fantasy world. The culture is influenced by the Korean and Chinese culture. This influence is evident in the distribution of the kingdoms, and also in the names of the characters as well as their clothing.
This was literally the best anime I've seen. The characters, the story line, the animation, the soundtrack, LITERALLY EVERYTHING! And one of the best reverse harem anime I have ever watched, after Ouran Highschool host club. :'D And is also, a series that any gender can enjoy.<br/><br/>The main protagonist, that is Princess Yona of the Hiryuu castle goes through a major tragedy as the man who she had loved Soo-Wun, for sixteen years of her life kills her father to become the king himself. Yona, somehow escapes the castle with Hak, her personal bodyguard and also the general.<br/><br/>Over the course of time, she goes through major character development and tries to act strong in every possible way, no matter how hard the circumstances are and even though she doesn't know any misery that the outside world has to offer.<br/><br/>All of the other characters, especially Hak, is very well represented, and not to mention his good looks, he is unbelievably strong and is known as the Thunder Beast, he also often seems to have no chill. And he really needs to confess to Yona already. <br/><br/>The other four dragons were also showed in a very well manner, and are good-looking too, although i really do think that the yellow dragon was a bit rushed.<br/><br/>But, nevertheless,this is indeed the best anime you're going to watch! and I highly recommend that you do!
Princess Yona grew up loving one man. On her sixteenth birthday that man betrayed her, revealing himself an impostor. Her world is thrown into disarray as she and her guard have to flee her home. Her kingdom on the verge of overthrow from this impostor of a man she thought she knew, princess Yona must find a way to persevere. <br/><br/>When given advice from an oracle, she must seek the four dragons to save and reclaim her kingdom. Each Dragon (with the exception of the Yellow Dragon) has their own back-story, their own character, their own life. Each which she must first help before acquiring their help in return. A little side story if you will. <br/><br/>I quite enjoyed the side stories, and getting to know each of the dragons; though I feel the introduction of the Yellow Dragon was rushed. I'm not sure if episode 24 was the last episode or not, but it felt off balance compared to the others. It was nice seeing the character growth in Yona and Hak. (Though Hak needs to confess already.) I'm still not sure what Su-Won is up too. If there's a season two, I'm not sure where they'd even take the story from where it is now other then the one thing that was mentioned to Yona there at the end.<br/><br/>Would I recommend it? Yes. Give it a try!
