The world building is good because it’s based on the actual history of the Warring States period in Ancient China. I learned about many of the characters and generals in my Chinese history class in college.
I will never ever ever understand how this manga has not become a hit in the west. I feel like it translates to a western audience so much better than many other popular seinen
@@ivanjavierpelaezamorocho8248you do know mostly people speak English out of the us There are many countries which has not even has manga released in their own language that’s why they prefer English because no their language release
@@isaacrangel3005 my opinion has changed, I still consider it a low end arc tho. but for kingdoms standars its still an 8-9/10. too dragged out, fake death with 0 repercussions, way too much plot armor for the qin army, but it had the most hype moments in the series.
been following this one for a few years an I read the updates regularly still, it's amazing. Surprised heaps of people sleep on it. How can you live with not knowing about the Great General Ouki and his manliness?! 771 chapters later, still the best character.
@@juangamingph8183Not at least in China, this cartoon is not as famous as the attacking giants, because China has its own historical TV series, and it's strange to watch Japanese anime about its own country's history.
Because of Kingdom comic, i watched the whole series of Qin Dynasty 78 episodes and read many literatures about Qin history or 7 kingdoms era. And i realized, this comic/anime, many characters background are different from the history.. Examples, Ousen is just recently joined to serve the Qin army, Kanki, when he lost to Riboku, he didn die in war but he committed suicide and he aint bandit. Also, based from history, shoubunkun and shouheikun are relatives from same family(Mi family, their names are Mi Qi (shouheikun) and Mi Dian (shoubunkun) ) , and they were also recently joined. Shouheikun betrayed Yinzheng and joined Chu. Then shoubunkun came and committed suicide in front of him due to shame because his relative betrayed Qin. Others are, Kyoukai is a man (QiangLei), Yotanwa is a man (Yang Duanhe) and not a mountain king. Yinzheng lil bro, he didn't rebel in purpose, but he was framed, he was a good guy and brother. Also, Meng Ao (MouGou) is savage grandpa and Qin's primary general, not a loser like in the manga. In manga, YinZheng has daughter from palace maid... In real history, YinZheng has a son from Chu princess, and his son's name is FuSu. YinZheng married 2 princess in the same time, another is from Qi kingdom. The eunuch, RouAi (Lao Ai) yeh he is real, also had affair with YinZheng'a mother, the queen dowager. Later, YinZheng executed them, the eunuch, and the 2 sons of his mom, a.k.a Yinzheng's 2 step lil bros. Ahh.. Yinzheng's wife, the chu princess, is the daughter of shouheikun... Yes... Lol.. Xin, he served under Kanki in the real history... But yes, he is a King's favorite.. Haha.. Later, after YinZheng united China and ruled.. As time goes on.. He built many.. Including the Great Harem Palace... Collecting many woman, not only from china.. But other countries as well... Fu Su, YinZheng'a first son, is smart guy, and wise, and brave. He gets accompanied and tutored by Meng Tian (Mouten). Later... YinZheng fell ill and died... During a journey to a certain city... YinZheng was together with one of his kid, Prince Hu Hai (from 1 of his concubines/mistress) and the eunuch Zhao Gao. During that time, Li Se (RiShi) was the prime minister. ZhaoGao manipulated RiShi and told him, if others knew that YinZheng has died, Prince Fu Su will be the next king of Qin and MouTen (Meng Tian) will be the prime minister so RiShi could lose his current position. These 2, then joined hands, made false kings order, telling prince Fu Su and Mouten to commit suicide. They made prince Hu Hai the next Qin king. Zhao Gao gave many woman to Hu Hai. Everyday king Hu Hai only played with woman and get drunk in the palace. Zhao Gao, wont allow everyone who wish to meet with the king. Everything must come through him. Zhao Gao is the absolute ruler of qin. Later, he framed RiShi. RiShi got punished by the 5 kind of Pain, its the most gruesome and cruelest way to the otherworld. First, cut his nose, then cut his hands, then cut his legs, then split his waist... Then murder all his family uo to 3 generations. During this time, many rebellions everywhere... This is then the beginning, of the era of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu... ZhaoGao, who was afraid to the rebellions, since it gets more and more people day by day... ZhaoGao then killed King HuHai and accused him caused the mess... ZhaoGao then tried to make the prince Fu Su's kid, prince ChiYing to be the next Qin King. But, ChiYing was a smart kid, he pretended to be sick and didn come to the ceremony. When ZhaoGao came to his house, ChiYing killed the eunuch bastard. Afterthat, in despair, prince ChiYing said, its destiny, Qin is crumbling... On that time, Liu Bang and his army already breached the capital... Prince ChiYing asked for mercy and gave the throne to LiuBang. LiuBang accepted and spared prince ChiYing and all the royal families. Later, Xiang Yi came.. He was furious, because LiuBang came first. Xiang Yi a brave cruel warrior... He slaughtered prince ChiYing and all the royal families of Qin... Qin Dynasty... Turned to zero... Has been wiped out...GG.. 😂 Ah yes, HouKen in history, was an old veteran general, same league with Renpa(Lianpo), MouGou (Meng Ao).. Not a savage deity just like in the manga lol
I've been following this series since 2016 right after i graduated high school. This manga means a lot to me and I love it. Thank you for making a short on it. I hope it keeps growing :)
Up to date with chapter 744, and goddamn I hope they continue making anime seasons for this. This feels like One Piece and Naruto without a single moment of filler. Edit: Holy $hit the next 18 chapters are an absolute rollercoaster with Shin demonstrating his ability as an Instinct-type too.
Opm in top 3? Well, i guess it's depends on taste. But want a recommendation? Try magi manga. As a seinen fan who has multiple in this genre, magi is one of the greatest manga and the most underrated manga i have read.
@@plamediromain635 I think the one of the main reasons for why it did get so popular is because of the fact the it got Berzerk'ed. Meaning that the anime had bad cgi to the point where it was unwatchable.
This manga is for sure extremely popular but that’s in Japan. It’s been in the top in terms of manga sells for a long while now but I’m guessing what you mean is that, why isn’t kingdom more popular in the west.
No official english translation and a horrible anime adaptation. I guarantee if a studio like WIT rebooted the anime (highly unlikely), Kingdom will absolutely explode in popularity outside Japan.
I just finished reading the manga recently. I love it. It's real people fighting real battles. Those moments when shin uses the ouki's glaive are most awesome for me. The most epic moment for me was when shin cut down gaku ei in half literally sending his upper body flying in a single swing.
This manga is fasho up there. Only Vinland Saga hits the same way. At least amongst mangas I've read. Considering its been going for over a decade says that its gotta be good.
I currently read the battle of Bayou arc. So far, in terms of some of characters design they were look really goofy and over the top. The individual fights, most of it were unrealistic. But man oh man, the battle tactics/strategies, battle formation, group or huge scale fights looks pretty realistic. Not to mention the politics within the Royal Palace are the selling points of this series. Definitely worth to consider as your top Seinen series, in fact it could change my Seinen big 3 into the mount Rushmore of Seinen
I'm not a manga reader but an anime enjoyer, I have been watching this Kingdom anime yeah from THE famous season 1 to season 3 and now I will watch season 4, btw season 3 was peak from eps 1 to the last eps. I know that the anime has a whole different vibes compared to the manga because the anime has a "family-friendly" rating while the manga has 21+ uncensored stuff. but personally, I don't mind that as long they can interpret the plot & story well like in the manga and so far i love it (the anime) and yeah, season 1 was bad(animation-wise) the plot keeps me interested, and season 2 was way better than season 1. but season 3 tho, is a whole new anime like the animation was FIREEEE I would recommend people skip season 1 but watch a recap video about it in RUclips so you don't miss the story. season 2 is optional, you try watching it, and if you still can't handle the animation just watch the recap of S2. and for season 3 & so on, you NEED to watch it with your open eyes and pause the eps if you miss some dialogue because every dialogue in this arc was PEAK
The intelligence in this series is insane. Many series have smart characters that either don't actually show why they're hailed as being as intelligent as the series tried to portray or, more commonly, there's widespread plot induced stupidity in order to show off a characters intelligence. So instead of elevating a character objectively the author may drag everyone but that character down. Kingdom makes every character's intelligence unchanging but still finds ways to show off why a certain character is ahead at a given point. Kingdom and Bungo Stray Dogs are the only series I've seen pull off intelligent characters this well
I first found Kingdom back in 2013 and didn't read it because the mangapanda description was so bad. I gave it a try a few years later, after watching the anime, and boy, was I surprised, it was incredible.
Is there anyway to get Kingdom manga in english? I've watched the first three seasons of the show and absolutely love it, I really want to read this manga and the art looks amazing from what I've seen!
What's funny is, historically, Xin is rockin' until him and Meng Tien get shrecked in Chu during a failed invasion. Wonder how Kingdom is gonna rock that career ending failure.
Part of it has to do with the fact that there’s no English release - so almost no presence in the west, also because Chinese history for some reason doesn’t hit the same outside Japan for whatever reason
@@AaronAce West is more than USA because Kingdom is already licensed in west just not in english. In Spain and Argentina has it and its monthly, Spain goes in Volume 17 and Argentina in volume 15. Other country is french and it goes in volume 66.
@@itsDjjayyI read and watched both. I only wish the Kingdom anime was animated better in the first two seasons. Character and story-wise, Kingdom is much better than Vinland Saga. Kingdom has a deeper historical background as well. It’s based on actual Chinese history and tells the story of the first Chinese emperor, Qin Shi Huang.
@@themonkeyking824I see your point but I would say after watching it all the way to s4 and find out a little bit of what happens in the manga I would say Vineland saga is way more interesting and doesn't become a bore fest half way. Maybe it's because I find vikings more interesting than Chinese warfare.
I was anime only and decided to start reading kingdom because I liked it that much and I’m telling it is the only manga ever worth reading in my opinion the drawing the way they speak is top tier In the manga you get the gruesomeness you don’t get in the anime
World building doesn’t just mean it needs to be set somewhere supernatural, in this case the world building is developing each state as its own “entity” with their own culture, generals and capitals!
Like someone said the first 2 seasons looks like ps1 graphics lol. But the story is amazing and the 3rd and 4th season actually have blood and good animation. The first 2 seasons annoyed me because the lack of blood which makes no sense to me. Other than that it's actually amazing.
See I agree it's good. Read till the last 735 chapter , it started gold but lost that lustre in the way for me. In this manga, generals are God and anything hi shin unit does, enemy acknowledge shin even though he was stuck with one fight through out the chapter. 🤦
Worldbuilding wtf? Dude u know this is historical right. Most of the characters and battles really existed/happened. To compare this to a children's story like one piece is blasphemy
That's what world building is. Creating a story from absolute nothing. Kingdom is based on true events but one piece, berserk r totally build from scratch.

Season 1,2 got bad animation cuz I’d like 3D but is like low 3D but is so good. Season 3 -4 it got good animation.. cuz is 2d
Like someone said the first 2 seasons looks like ps1 graphics lol. But the story is amazing and the 3rd and 4th season actually have blood and good animation. The first 2 seasons annoyed me because the lack of blood which makes no sense to me. Other than that it's actually amazing.
Sadly, it's more of a Berserk and Tokyo Ghoul case... Stick to the manga
@@Bobby14no it’s not like berserk and Tokyo ghoul. It’s faithful to anime and animation gets better. The story is still very good
See I agree it's good. Read till the last 735 chapter , it started gold but lost that lustre in the way for me. In this manga, generals are God and anything hi shin unit does, enemy acknowledge shin even though he was stuck with one fight through out the chapter. 🤦
Worldbuilding wtf? Dude u know this is historical right. Most of the characters and battles really existed/happened. To compare this to a children's story like one piece is blasphemy
That's what world building is. Creating a story from absolute nothing.
Kingdom is based on true events but one piece, berserk r totally build from scratch.
