akatsuki no yona 216 hak and yona have been separated pretty much the entire time they've been back at the castle but hak promised he'd work his way up to stand by her. can't imagine yona's grief upon losing the person who's been with her from the beginning 😭

also wow this was really heartbreaking 😭😭😭

ao ashi 273 "if it is an answer you find on your own, you won't forget it for the rest of your life" amazing callback to this line at such a critical moment for ashito's growth. while he lacks in technique, he makes up in strategy as he find ways to connect his teammates

i've always been intrigued by the idea of ashito being a midfielder since the beginning so i was really shocked that he was put in defense. looks like we might get that answer soon
