What to Check Before Subscribing
Match your country to the correct table. A title page in one territory does not establish rights in another. On the linked service, check the exact series, episode count, audio/subtitle choices, and whether the current offer is subscription, rental, purchase, or a limited catch-up window.
FAQ
Is Yona of the Dawn available in Japan? This guide links to a direct U-NEXT Japan title page; verify the live offer there. Is Crunchyroll the Japan option? No. The Crunchyroll route is scoped here to supported territories outside Japan because the Japan-region check returned a currently-unavailable result.
Anime Synopsis
Princess Yona grows up sheltered in Kouka Kingdom until the man she loves murders her father and seizes the throne. Forced to flee with her bodyguard Hak, she sees the poverty and political neglect that palace life kept hidden. A priest’s prophecy sends them searching for four warriors who carry the powers of ancient dragons, while survival changes Yona before the quest can restore what she lost.
