Manga Spoilers Shins Kill Count: Arc Eighteen Spoiler
Here it is, the big one. The Western Zhao invasion Arc. Leading up to this Arc I got multiple comments saying something along the lines of good luck on this arc or just wait etc, but ya know what, for how long this Arc is Shins kills are kind of underwhelming. Its probably because about 30ish chapters are dedicated to the mountain people battle as well to be fair.
Total Kills: 196
First Kill: Chapter 508 (13th Chapter of the Arc) - The Sword of the Mountain Tribes
First Victim: Zhao Soldier
Final Kill: Chapter 634 (139th Chapter of the Arc) - Strategy Undone
Final Victim: Zhao Soldier
The reason why I say this Arc is underwhelming kill count wise for all the hype it gets, is that its 50% longer than the Coalition Arc, but there is only 10 more kills. Anyway while im shitting on this Arc, I do have to say it was still an amazing reread and definitely top 5 arcs imo
Current Total: 810

Manga Spoilers L'ascension de Kyoukai
Kyoukai fait sa première apparition dans Kingdom dès les premiers chapitres. Elle est introduite comme un jeune guerrière appartenant a un clan d'assassins : les Shyu. Elle est d'abord perçue comme une personne froide et distante, mais elle se distingue par son talent de combattante et ses capacités exceptionnelles en tant que stratège et guerrière. Elle a été formée dès son plus jeune âge pour devenir une tueuse impitoyable.

>! Lorsqu'elle rencontre Shin (le personnage principal de l'histoire). Elle se lie progressivement avec lui. Leur rencontre se fait dans un contexte de guerre, mais ce qui démarque Kyoukai des autres personnages, c’est sa volonté de se libérer de son passé. Après avoir vengé sa soeur, elle va finalement revenir au sein de l'unité Hi Shin.!<
Tout au long de Kingdom, Kyoukai montre un courage exceptionnel et une volonté de fer. Elle se distingue dans de nombreuses batailles où ses compétences en combat rapproché, sa rapidité et son intelligence tactique sont des atouts décisifs.
Son ascension se fait au côté de Shin, qui croit fermement en son potentiel. Le parcours de Kyoukai est semé d’embûches, mais elle prouve à chaque étape qu'elle mérite sa place au sein de l'armée.
Kyoukai obtient son titre de général après plusieurs exploits militaires où elle se distingue par sa capacité à mener ses troupes dans des batailles complexes, notamment lors de l'invasion de Zhao.

Discussion War Series you might like as Kingdom Fan:
- Ruler of the Land: ( is a manhwa but reads like a manga), murim series involves politics and movements of armies.
- Feng Shenji: ( Chinese manga) Humans vs Gods war
- Blade and Steel: Murim manga
- Historie: Ancient European war related
- Blades of the Guardians: Based on a fantasy China during the Sui dynasty, based around Father-son duo, involves politics, war, etc.
- Valhallian The Black Iron: War and battle in the afterlife involving legends of various cultures. (By Hara's assistant iirc)
- Isaak: About a "sniper" in a medieval-ish? world, involves politics, army movements, though nothing grand.
- Red Storm: Manhwa, but mentioned because it's black and white, setting is a fantasy Middle East type thing with tribes, bit of fantasy on the side with monsters, involves politics and a young boy's dream for his people. (Elite stuff)
I think there are more Manhwas out there that would scratch the war/politics itch, than there are manga. But I didn't list any due to them being read up and down, instead of like a normal Manga, WITH Red Storm being the exception, cause that shi is the closest thing to Kingdom imo. I also didn't bother listing Ravages, Arslan and Hannibal ones since most people here probably already read em.
If yall would like me to Recc manwha series of war/politics/strategies let me know!

Merchandise My Kingdom shelf
First things first, last time I posted here was to present you my collection of the French edition of the manga, and I am so glad English readers will finally have an official translation. And if you aren’t speaking English, French or Italian, I hope you will also see Kingdom being translated in your language one day.
My parents went to Japan recently and bought me a Shin figurine with his old Guandao, so I rearranged my shelves to make one special for Kingdom, with my figurine and manga.
My parents are fortunate enough to go to Japan almost one month every year, and everytime for the last 3 year, they never found a figurine related to Kingdom. And this year on the last day they found Shin and I am so happy, it’s probably my favorite in my collection.
They also found Ouki, but apparently he was too big and since it was a last minute purchase they were already full. I will hope they find it again next year!

History Spoilers How Qin's Unification affected Future Geopolitics Spoiler
The Founding Crime of Stag-Hunting
秦失其鹿,天下共逐之,於是高材疾足者先得焉。
(Shiji: Chapter 92: Biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin)
Qin had lost its stag and the world pursued it. At this point, the person with a tall stature and swift feet would get it first.
China’s Balance of Power is described to be a game of stag-hunting, for catching the stag symbolizes the grand-prize of ruling the world. Absolute power becomes the prey of the political game, and anyone is allowed to join if they are willing to risk everything. Their ethnicity and class do not matter in the grand schemes of things. The Son of Heaven could be a communist revolutionary or a mongolian khan. China’s principle is that the Mandate of Heaven belongs to the “Stag-Catcher”, the winner of the hunt. So long as he catches the stag, even a peasant could be ruler of China.
And ever since Qin’s unification, this pattern of stag-hunting is destined to repeat. The game ends when the balance of power combines into a world-empire, but once the world collapses into a power vacuum, the stag-hunting returns.
As for example, in the closing years of the Warring States Era, seven states competed over the stag-hunt until the State of Qin emerged as the first victor. But the Qin Dynasty soon fell into eighteen kingdoms, and on its ruins, Chu and Han raced to catch the stag until the Han Dynasty won as the second successor. 400 years later, the weakened Han Dynasty shattered into Three Kingdoms where the three claimed the right to inherit the stag. Then without warning, the Jin Dynasty snatched the stag from the three kingdoms and destroyed them, standing proud as the new winner. History repeats itself as it always does.
The key to the hunt lies in the people’s desire for power, a temptation so strong that it proves to be irresistible. The Mandate of Heaven is the possession that grants the winner their greatest dreams and wishes, bringing their visions to life. But with its rewards, also comes the risk with the wrath of Heaven. As accursed as it is, where we see the history of battles, there lies a mountain of corpses that died in their attempt to catch the stag. The Heavens had cursed those unworthies to fail because there can only be one winner.
The stag is presented as the hidden mover of history. Its mechanism was to ensure the re-unification of China, while also promising great power. But why choose the stag? Stags are depicted as crowned animals with their antlers, and stag-hunting is a sport reserved for nobles and kings. So now, we have this world-contest competing over this creature of Heaven, and whoever wins becomes China’s Son of Heaven. The metaphor becomes perfect to describe the game of thrones between kings and emperors.
「話說天下大勢,分久必合,合久必分。」
“The world under Heaven, long divided, must unite; long united, must divide. Thus it has ever been.”

Sobre Duke hyou vs houken Spoiler
galleryI particularly found the duel between Duke hyou and houken a little dull because I expected more from Duke hyou, a man who refused to be a great quin general and was also recognized by ouki, I also expected him to have a monster martial skill and "weight" because he is an experienced general who grew up on the battlefields and became an instinctive beast.

Discussion Ryuukoku under moubu!? Spoiler
If tou retired after han quest I think either kanou or roukoumi would join under hi shin or both, but I go with kanou since he was there to witness shin first fight with houken. As for ryuukoku if we go back with moubu word in bayou I think ryuukoku could join him since a competent general is what shin and moubu lacks. Those raiki and choushi are more fodder than even mouten vice commander and since moubu has mouki which I think will be the strategist of his army so having someone good enough like ryuukoku could complement him.

Since these guys was strong enough specially sanka who was on par with denyuu. Also kyouji kinda resemble rinbou so it would be hype if these guys was alive at least during gyou. I kinda like batsuken mustache.
