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 next week for the next two chapters!

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 has had for a day and has already adopted. Also, we took a uquiz on what type of anime boyfriend we should have (to varying degrees of accuracy). We're on twitter, tumblr, and gmail if you want to send us a message. Otherwise, thank you for listening and we'll

Chapters 70.5 & 99.5 + OVA 1

2022/03/21

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 single thing the animators added for the story was perfect. Also discussed: voice actors, color theory, and Tarble and his peculiar alien wife, Gure.#NotMyVegeta. As always, please find us at twitter.com/theyonapod, theyonapodcast@tumblr.com, or

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. Also covered: listener emails and whether or not Ian Sinclair is married to an 85 year old Australian woman. You know the drill. We're on twitter, tumblr, and gmail and we love chatting with you. Come find us if you want to, otherwise we'll see you next

Chapters 73-74

2022/03/07

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 just, like, a ton of this episode is us reminiscing about things we used to do and enjoy. Here's that cracked article, and the por que no los dos commercial if you've somehow, blessedly, been able to avoid it until now. As always, we're on twitter, tumblr, and

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@gmail.com, and theyonapodcast.tumblr.com. See you next week!

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 discovering Evan thinks of arcs vastly different than I do. As always, please come find us on twitter, tumblr, or gmail. See you next week!

Chapters 66-68

2022/02/14

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 cover three chapters. Sorry, it's a ton of set-up. And a little pay-off, which is fun! Also fun? How cool the gang is at the seedy bar they're lying low in. They're like if Aragorn was actually five freaks, a gremlin princess, and a harried fifteen-year-old

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 Hill so if you're avoiding them...sorry! It happens early in the episode. But if you're here for the scene we talked about, please watch this groundbreaking piece of film. There's also an oral history of how the scene came to be, which I'm a huge fan of. Finally,

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 with it, aka my kryptonite) and how to kill tropical centipedes. Speaking of centipedes, you all might have heard that Tonga was devastated by a tsunami last week. That was my home for two years and it's an issue that's very personal to me. These episodes are

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 treat to have on. We talked about how hugely homosexual these chapters are, innocent fantasies, and speculate why Kai is so obsessed with kidnapping people. Also, and this should be a given at this point, some Geun-tae thirst. I've also been working on fixing audio

Bonus Episode 5 - Smut or Angst

The Yona Podcast ·

2022/01/17

Another short bonus for the holidays. This time we're playing a genius game katerina_sings posted about on twitter called Smut or Angst. The basic premise is that the player has to guess from a fic title if the story will be smutty or angsty. We also took a quiz on what shojo romance trope we were.

Bonus Episode 4 - Pilot Watch with Newcomers

The Yona Podcast ·

2022/01/10

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 best friend we grew up with) and asked her and her fiancé to be on the podcast. Apparently this was David's first podcast, but he listens to a lot of them so he handled it like a pro. They were honestly such a treat to have. Anime isn't really their thing and

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 shonen series Yona most resembles, and, bizarrely, Mormons. Thanks, Stephanie Meyer.I swear our tangents get more incomprehensible with guests. TW: incest and hints at some other dark themes, so if you want to skip all that please go from 43:51-52:19. You can

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 from someone who has never taken an econ course in her life. If you know more than us about food or Japanese economics from the early 90's to the late 2010's, please email us at theyonapod@gmail.com. We are also on twitter at theyonapod and tumblr at theyonapodcast. We'll see you

2021/12/20

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 when it comes to Zeno, some early 2000's pop culture. Like muffins. As always, please find us on twitter, tumblr, or gmail if you have questions or comments. See you next week!

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 some really good Tae-Jun content for his number one fan, Yata. (Evan and I continued to be mildly baffled but supportive.) If you want a throw-back, here's Tae-Jun if he had a YouTube channel (aka Lars the Emo Kid). Please check out the My Anime Podcast on

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 next chapter. I did not remember at the time lol.) We get into it all after we discuss Red (Taylor's Version) and Trader Joe's first. Finally, we end the episode with a quiz on which character we are. You can take it along with us here if you want! Please tells us

Bonus Episode 3 - A Conversation with Yata

The Yona Podcast ·

2021/11/29

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 guest. As you can see/hear, we did not even approach talking about Yona for an entire hour. The rest of the episode will come out in two weeks, but for now please enjoy us talking about anime, terrifying claymation, and getting blindingly drunk. Hope all the Americans

Chapters 48-49

The Yona Podcast ·

2021/11/22

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 25:21-25:57 and Evan mentions it for just a sec in her prediction. We do not get into any sort of detail whatsoever (we basically just mention that there are those undertones), but I wanted to mention it here if you're particularly sensitive to the topic.
