"This issue hit way harder than I expected."
-Arden, 17, Line Webtoon Reader
I came here for dragons and left with an emotional gut punch. The scenes with Akkin and his father?? That electricity duel had me on edge the whole time. The way Iru just wants peace while everything around him is burning...it's honestly heartbreaking. And the art? Still top-tier. Thaeron is my new favorite dragon.

"I read this with my 11-year-old son and we were both completely hooked."
-Nina, Parent & Educator, Local Review
Glacias continues to be one of the few graphic novels that bridges the gap between childlike wonder and very real, mature themes. My son loved the dragons and the action (he's obsessed with Lyth), but I found myself deeply moved by the family conflict. It sparked a conversation about control, courage, and standing up for what's right, even against someone you love.

"Dragons, pain, rebellion-and electricity?? TAKE MY MONEY."

The way this volume dives into Akkin's trauma and that twisted "shock test" with his father??? That was wild. It's darker than previous issues but still hopeful. Iru is a pure cinnamon roll that must be protected at all costs. Big love to the team for not shying away from emotional storytelling.

"Akkin went from 'cool older brother' to 'tragic favorite character' in 20 pages."
-Yuna, 14, Manga Fan
I read Glacias before, but this one actually made me cry. Like real tears. Akkin is trying so hard to protect his little brother and you can feel how much he's struggling. And omg, Aleria being a softie underneath all that sarcasm? ICONIC. One star off only because I wanted more dragon time ï½ï½ï½ï½ but still SO good!

"It reminds me of Avatar: The Last Airbender if it was darker and had more dragons."

The emotional weight in this arc blew me away. Iru is such a sweet soul and watching his relationship with Akkin unfold was so touching. You can feel how much Akkin wants to protect him, even when it means defying everything he was raised to believe. Also, the fire dragon bonding with Aleria?? Chef's kiss.
