Kingdom

It is really underrated, I know, the first season is awful because of the 3D/CGI animation, but the storytelling, characters, plot, wordbuilding and every else is simpli magnificent, watch the show, it worth the time. By the way, this show talk about the real history in China, the battles, the characters and the places existed 2000 years ago.

Realmente está infravalorado, yo sé, la primera temporada es horrible gracias a la animación 3D/CGI, pero la narración, los personajes, la trama, la construcción de palabras y todo lo demás es simplemente magnífico, miren Kingdom, vale totalmente la pena. Por cierto, Kingom habla sobre la historia real de China, las batallas, los personajes y los lugares existieron hace 2000 años.

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!!

Kingdom anime is just one of the media with which the story is presented. The manga is ongoing, 762 chapters and counting. The live action film is on its third installment but available only in Japanese theaters. It's a franchise that will not likely reach Kimetsu No Yaiba or Attack on Titan levels internationally with the stark absence of English translations, but for a huge fan like me, it is worth crossing the language barrier for.

Chinese war drama in the hands of mangaka Yasuhisa Hara. This is what it is. Many of Hara's characters jump straight out of history, and they transform into larger-than-life generals, kings, vassals, and scholars, warriors, courtiers, in often flamboyant costumes and hairpieces. The two main leads, orphan warrior Shin and 31st King of Qin Ei Sei, carry the heart of the series (these two are the least flamboyantly dressed tough), and through their stories, together or apart, they share the goal of unifying the warring states and ending war for good.

There is some criticism about the inconsistency and cartoonish aspects of the anime, but that can be overlooked as the story unfolds. Overall, Kingdom is epic storytelling, and I can see many more chapters, seasons, and movie sequels on the horizon.

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.
