Kingdom

I would give it a 10star if it wasn't for the animation. It took me a few episodes to get used to it but now I hardly notice. The story, on the other hand, is amazing. It really surprises me the show isn't more popular. I recommend to anyone looking for a new show.

The cover art isn't impressive. Xin looks flat, 2D. Which good anime doesn't have a good cover. Well, this one doesn't. And first few episodes frankly was not gripping. But it is loosely based on the history of the first emperor of China. That made me stay. The story must be good at the very least. Turns out i got used to the style of animation, and in fact it did improve after 30 episodes or so. But please do not judge it for the animation, still. I think it fills a void in anime as there isn't much out there with strategy on the battlefield and rich historical backgroud. There are a few interesting characters whom i hope gets to be developed. Still halfway through.

I can't believe i stumbled upon this gem!! I wanted another high calibre anime after finishing one piece, and this delivered. Can't stop watching, it has an interesting plot and characters, great visuals, and fight scenes keep getting better. Highly recommend!!

Such a unique and interesting anime. Much content too. Great character development. Recommend to anyone who likes ancient war movies and anime in general.

Story holds together.... Not a single moment you want to miss. Perfectly executed.
