Review:
We end the pirate plot in this volume—they take down the slave-trafficking ships, Yona takes a stand, and then they all celebrate.
Then they have to say goodbye, and it's a sad parting for all of
them. After all of that commotion, we get a surprise visit from Suwon.
I saw this in the anime, so I knew it was coming. I think it hit me
harder in the manga, given Yona's reaction and her inner thoughts
while hiding. But, I am rather confused by Suwon's reaction, and what
his intentions are in the future. I'm just not sure about him.
Though, at this point, I still don't think I like him, in general.
And then Yona and her five companions are off, in search of the last
dragon. That will be left to the next volume, though, because this
one ends with a little comedic reprieve. Yun finds a scale of the
white dragon being sold as a love charm, and it causes quite hilarity
and adorableness.
I'm glad that after this, we get mostly new stuff after the anime.
I'm really looking forward to meeting the last dragon, and to see
what happens after that. I love this series, and cannot wait for
more.
(Wouldn't it be amazing if these were monthly releases?)
