listen… i love y’all.. but Yona is literally just a sweetheart who cares about Sidon jsjsjjdjd
everything she said gave me very much “i want the best for the Zora domain and I want to help the person I’ve loved since I was a child get over the crippling loss of his sister.”
the worst you could accuse her of is having the mindset of “i’ve had a crush on the PRINCE since we were kids so i made sure i was a proper lady.” which still goes out the window when she says to Link “I really just want him to believe in himself again since he blames himself for his sisters death.”

Akatsuki no Yona's greatest yet most underrated strength: foreshadowing
I don't see anyone discussing this, but Akatsuki no Yona has insanely good foreshadowing, like on par with Attack on Titan levels. You only realize after a re-read. The hidden easter eggs, unopened pandora's boxes, lines of dialogue or actions that were Chekhov's guns...
It's like reading a mystery novel with the prophecy, Zeno's underlying insanity, Suwon's intentions and leadership, the political intrigues, Yona and Suwon being foils, Hak and Suwon's broken brotherhood, the commentaries about King Il's leadership, religion vs atheism, the separation of church and state, Yona's future-seeing powers, debates of free will vs fate, violence vs pacifism, moral dilemmas, personal wishes vs greater good, the pitfalls of war, etc. etc. it's so rich and meticulously put together.
There were signs that Suwon was terminally ill and blood-related to Hiryuu (his appearance, his love for people, his dialogues about rushing his coronation and being willing to die later, his mother being sick, etc.). There were signs that Zeno was going to betray the group ("i didn't approach her at first because i was testing her. i admit it wasn't very nice.", or "I will have my wish granted at the end of my journey, even if it goes against the gods") It goes right under your nose. Yet you can see that potential in their characters, their dialogues, their actions. It makes sense.
Even now there are great scenes will only make complete sense after they are recontextualized.
It's not why I heard the manga was good, but it's why I read. You could really tell that the author had an idea of where she wanted to take the way and knows how it would end.
We just don't know it yet.

Just wanna point something out rq but canonically, Sidon totk and botw is 6'9.
For context, Link is canonically 5'2 and barely reaches past Sidon's wrist in height.
Doing some math with the help of the lovely height comparison generator, I determined that no, Sidon is not 6'9.
He is 9'7.
Fic writers, do with that what you will.
