Chapters 102-103
It's the start of Zeno's backstory, where we get to see how he discovers what his power is and then is absolutely tortured by it for the foreseeable future. It's a grand time. Joining us to talk about it is our good friend Pres (blacksovie
Chapters 99-101
We're shifting from a historical fantasy romance to straight up horror this week. That's right, the long-awaited reveal is here: Zeno is immortal. And boy is it freaky to witness in action. Also discussed: fanfiction, good and bad young adu
Chapters 96-98
We're in a new country! But not for long. Kin provence is Kai territory for about half this episode. Yona and the gang are straight up not having a good time about it. You know who is having a good time? Soo-Won and his generals. Also discu
Chapters 94-95
We are in a new arc, everyone! Yona and the boys have left the Water Tribe and are back in Earth Tribe territory (until they're in Kai). Meanwhile, Soo-Won is plotting. Against Kai. But this time he's the aggressor. Also: Would You Rather,
Chapters 92-93
It's a falling action week. We wrap up Yona in the Water Tribe and solidify Lili's undying commitment to (a mildly confused) Yona. Yona also cries about Hak smiling. It's wonderful. Also: tattoos, crustaceans vs. mollusks, and our inaugural
Chapters 90-91
This episode is also known as May the Forcus be With You per Evan's request. Alright folks, we're here! We've arrived at one of the angstiest chapters. Soo-Won and Hak have their first face-to-face meeting since the coup and it's just a lit
Chapters 88-89
As Evangelina says at one point: this is like a Shakespearean comedy but it's not funny at all because everyone involved has some horrific trauma. Things are tense in the Water Tribe and we are both having the best time. Also discussed: fan
Chapters 86-87
These! Chapters! First off, the gang is back together. Then a new gang forms consisting of Lili and Soo-Won (and Ju-do, who does NOT want to be there). Plus, Lili has no idea who Soo-Won is, and she doesn't know that she should keep him fro
Chapters 83-85
It's a three-chapter week! Lots of wrap-up in the first two chapters and a nudge forward with chapter 85. Yona heals and has A Moment with Hak. Lili decides to head back to the palace so Tetora can heal. And then they (separately) wind up h
Chapters 81-82
We've arrived. My favorite moment of the series. It takes a surprising amount of time to get to it, though. We were chatty this week. Also discussed: class reunions and titties. Please find us on twitter, tumblr, or gmail. Thanks, and see y
Chapters 79-80
Yona kicked a guy in the face! Lili maybe (probably) fell in love! Zeno...did things! These were some great chapters. Also discussed: Kusanagi's backlog and fashion in Yona. You can find us on twitter, tumblr, or gmail, or simply come back
Chapters 77-78
New arc, new tribe, new plot. We're in the Water Tribe now, and there is a mysterious drug making the rounds. Jae-ha is its first victim from our gang, and thus starts the direction of the plot from here on now. Plus our girl Lili, who Evan
Chapters 70.5 & 99.5 + OVA 1
It's backstory time for Kija and Jae-ha. We get to learn about their dragon predecessors as the gang relaxes at a rural hot spring. Plus, these chapters were combined into a perfect OVA. We've missed seeing these kids animated, and every si
Chapters 75-76
We're wrapping this arc up! Soo-Won is saving the kingdom one well-placed threat sandwiched between lenient kindness at a time. Gulfan is still firmly a child of divorce. Also Hak and Yona sort of go on a date and we're very normal about it
Chapters 73-74
These chapters serve to wind the arc down. Characters know things. Soo-won takes the Fire Tribe boys under his proverbial wing. And that's about it. I don't know if you've all caught on, but we've known each other since we were about 12, so
Chapters 71-72
It's battle time! The Soo-won stuff is kind of a mixed bag, but Hak and Yona look so cool in this section. Additional topics: a listener email and stumbling upon smutty fanfiction as youngsters. We're on twitter @theyonapod, theyonapod@gmai
Chapters 69-70
Battle shenanigans! Soo-won is back, baby, and he's ready to fight. ...next week. This week we're still mostly setting things up. But it's fun! Also discussed: horrifying bug stories, Bachelor in Paradise-inspired character moments, and dis
Chapters 66-68
Blanket disclaimer: we discuss sexual misconduct and sexual assault in media a few times throughout this episode so please skip this week if you're sensitive to those sorts of discussions. This is a short episode this week even though we co
Chapters 64-65
This episode is not all about grain! Instead, it's super angsty and romantic and we loved it. We talk about thirsty Kai ladies, romance needing a little suspension of disbelief, and that hairpin. We also give slight spoilers for One Tree Hi
Chapters 62-63
What team? Wildcats! Just kidding, there are no wildcats, but the threat of them pushes Hak and Yona to share a tent together in some delightful tropiness. We also get into why Hak is such a good character (he's sad and refusing to deal wit
Chapters 60-61
We're back with actual manga chapters! This week we covered Young Leaves in the Wind, aka the baby chapters. But even though the flashback is tragic, we laughed the entire time with our guest and personal friend, Celine, who was such a trea
Bonus Episode 5 - Smut or Angst
Another short bonus for the holidays. This time we're playing a genius game katerina_sings posted about on twitter (https://twitter.com/katerina_sings/status/1456843818855059458) called Smut or Angst. The basic premise is that the player ha
Bonus Episode 4 - Pilot Watch with Newcomers
Evan and I decided to take a little break over the holidays, so this week and next will be extra episodes that won't cover the manga. For this episode, I was visiting my oldest friend (I think Evan and I have mentioned Kerrigan as our third
Chapters 58-59
As we say goodbye to Tae-Jun (for now?), we say hello to a new guest! Colleen of Colleen's Manga Recs joins us this week as our first guest to be completely caught up with the series (as of chapter 218). We chat about favorite dragons, what
Chapter 56 & 57
Tae-Jun is here to save the day! For a mess he created. And then continues to be messy while all the boys watch (in case he tries anything with Yona). Side tangents of the episode: food and an overview of the Lost Decades (https://en.wikipe
Chapters 54 & 55
It's re-record time! Long story short: we lost the original, but the second time's the charm. This week, we talk about Tae-Jun. Like, a lot. And also how he fits in with that Happy Hungry Bunch of ruffians we know and love. Also, as always
Chapters 52 & 53
Our first returning guest, Yata, has...still returned for the second time! We split this episode into two parts. The first is a bonus episode we released a couple weeks ago, and here is the second half of our conversation. This time, we get
Chapters 50-51
This week we get to learn more about Shin-ah's powers! And boy is it depressing, but it's also really beautiful too. (Please don't come for me for speculating on the extent of Shin-ah's powers. I know we see the dude he paralyzed in the nex
Bonus Episode 3 - A Conversation with Yata
Hey everyone! It's a bonus episode! I didn't have much time to edit this week because I went home for the holidays (and stayed on Evan's couch), so I decided to chop off the first bit of an episode we did with Yata, our first returning gues
Chapters 48-49
It's a new arc! Which means...we don't have much to talk about. Yet. This week is super short and sweet as we get our feet wet in Fire Tribe lands. Warning: we very briefly talk about the sexual assault undertones in chapter 49 from 25:21-2
