Hello, I made this thread to discuss a wonderful manga and anime called KINGDOM. This thread might contain spoilers.

Summary:

Plot:
KINGDOM is a history based manga, it is about the journey of a boy named Xin (or Shin) , to becoming a "Great General Of The Heavens". Shin goes through all the trials that are needed to become a great general. His trial shows us alot about the world at that time and so on. And alot of historical information from a different perspective. The manga also goes through great wars, and shows the usage of strategies and etc, while Shin discovers new things about what it means to be a General and able to control the fates of millions in your hand.


Location: Around 250 B.C. in China's warring states period


Discussion:

- What do you think of the manga so far (wherever you are in the series)?

- Where do you rank it against other manga that are well known?

- Who is the character that you like the most?

How's the anime?

The anime is quite good, however you might have to get through the first 10 or so episodes with a little discomfort sometimes. HOWEVER, nonetheless all the episodes are entertaining. The animation could use some work, but it improves as the anime progresses. There are 2 seasons currently. Season 1 has 30 + episodes , and season 2 is still going on i believe.

(i'm only on episode 9 in the anime).

The Manga is one of the better one's out, but it's slow paced at times.

That is true, but i think most of that "slow pace" is due to it focusing on not just shin (the fighting side), but also the political aspect that takes place during that time. I think its a more "content filled" slow pace, compared to lets say bleach.

True, currently it's more at a fast pace. I'm assuming we'll get filler type chapters soon though.

Kanki best character doe.

Hmmm, I doubt it. Maybe, after they deal with the State of AI issue. But for now its going to be focused around Ei Sei's coronation from what i'm getting.

X_X watch riboku make a move soon. That sly bastard isn't gonna miss an opportunity like this.

Why do you like shin?

1. Kinda of boring as of now with the whole new state of AI and the queen and s**t want to see some action
2. Naruto is over so this manga take the cake for being my favorite manga as of now
3. I like a lot of the characters(the ones that fight/battle in the wars) I can't said this or that one is my fav
Loll XD.

But i think, thats what makes Kingdom a great manga. Even if you don't like action and etc , you can still read it for its political affairs and other knowledge. And if you don't like politics and etc , you can read it for wars and battles.

Ehh, i'm not a fan of brutality, that Kanki shows. He reminds me of the head of the 6-generals. << You know what i never got? The fact that Onoki is said to be the strongest of the 6-generals and the most hyped one, but he wasn't the leader...

DUKE HYOU!!!!!
