Akatsuki No Yona Anime Poster

Akatsuki No Yona is a Japanese cartoon or anime about a young princess named Yona. Unlike most princess animes, Akatsuki No Yona is about Princess Yona who witness the murder of her father by her childhood friend / crush. 

This is a story about girl becoming a women, and the difficult choices you have to make in life. Also, it's about the friends you make along your journey in life. 

When this anime starts Yona is a helpless princess, that only cares about herself. After the event of her father's murder her life gets thrown upside down. She learns about the people of her country and the destiny she has.

Although the plotline is serious, there is some funny scenes between the characters especially Hak, her trusty bodyguard who loves to pick on her 

It's a story about the underdog and those are always the best.

Really recommend this anime, especially if you are new to anime because this is a story everyone can like.
