Review:
Finally, some fully new content! Ooh, man, I love it.
The gang is hanging out with Ik-su, and the village that Yun lived in before.
We get to see what Yun really did to help everyone there, and the
gang of course decides to help him. When some officials come to
collect money and start roughing people up, Yona and the group can't
help but step in. And thus, the Dark Dragon and the Happy Hungry
Bunch, a gang taking control of the village, are created.
Mid-way through the volume, Yona finally makes a break through with
Sinha, the Blue Dragon. When she's attacked, he's forced to step in,
and she finally sees his powers. It has a big effect on them both,
but it's really great to see the Blue Dragon starting to accept
himself and his powers, and gaining some self-worth. If I wasn't
already committed to Yona and Hak, the Blue Dragon would be winning.
Just seeing him makes me infinitely happy, every time.
In the latter half of the volume, we see Yona try to get better with
a knife, and the guy that Yona ruined by falling off the cliff shows
up. The officials are starting to get suspicious that people are
having such a hard time with such a small, weak village.
This series is always great. I love it to pieces, and I would love if
they made these releases monthly. I can't get enough.
