The popularity of the magazine series converted this into nineteen tankobon volumes and further an anime television series too was created. The Japanese animation studio, Pierrot Co., Ltd converted these volumes into an anime television series which was first aired between Oct. 7, 2014 and Mar. 24, 2015 at AT-X.

They have neither cancelled nor renewed the anime. Officially 6685 users are waiting for the return of this series as per whenwill.net. However, the number, in reality is much larger. This is the seventh most awaited TV series which is anticipated by the fans.
The plot of this anime is based on a fairy-tale. The story is of princess Yona who was brought up with riches and comfort and does not know anything about the miseries of life. Yona's cousin killed the king and she lost her father, kingdom, palace and everything she owned. Son Hak, Yona's bodyguard saved her and protected her from her cousin who was trying to kill Yona.
