Kingdom, Vol. 5

キングダム [Kingdom] #5

by Yasuhisa Hara

Lo stratagemma ha funzionato, e Ying Zheng, Xin e Diao sono riusciti a intrufolarsi nel palazzo reale assieme agli uomini del popolo delle montagne. Ma uccidere l'usurpatore non è così facile come avevano sperato… guardie armate, spadaccini imbattibili e mostruosi quanto forzuti servitori faranno da scudo al malvagio Cheng Jiao… Una cosa è certa, solo la spada di Xin potrà rimettere sulla testa di Zheng la corona che gli spetta. Il capolavoro di Yasuhisa Hara prosegue narrandoci le gesta dell'unificatore della Cina, con uno stile così potente ed epico da rasentare il sublime!

Chapters 41-52
توقع نداشتم اینقدر سریع تکلیف شاه اینا مشخص بشه ولی ترتیب و مدل وقایع رو دوست داشتم. یکمم آروم شده که خوبه، زیادی دیگه هیجانی بود وسطای این ولوم.

そしてその目は一点の曇りもなくうちに強く輝いてる

Every shonen manga has definitive volumes, and perhaps the most important is the conclusion of the first arc, the point of whether to drop it or not.

Kingdom passes with bright colors. The characters, their motivations, the stage: everything draws you into a bloody grey conflict where heroes and villains depend on one's perspective.
Looking forward to the next volume.

(4) On quitte le prologue pour débuter l'ascension de Shin... qui sera longue de plusieurs dizaines de tomes. Mais bon je demande pas mieux aha ! On assiste ici aux premiers pas de Shin dans l'armée et j'aime beaucoup le fait qu'il parte du plus bas de l'échelle. On risque d'avoir des informations très intéressantes au fil des tomes ainsi qu'un contexte géopolitique bien exploité.

This was a great read. Cheng Jiao was a spoiled brat and he deserved what he got after starting a rebellion to usurp the throne from his brother. Learning the history of Kingdom is very interesting and that now Xin has joined the army and about to join another battle. Can't wait to see what happens next.

This volume reaches a place that a traditional story would've made its end-point, and it is thrillingly depicted, including one of the most satisfyingly gruesome beat downs I've seen. The story then continues in interesting ways, showing how this is just the beginning while highlighting the aftermath in enticing fashion. I am really interested to see where this will go next.

4.25⭐️
En este tomo se cierra el arco de rebelión y vemos un poco de lo que se aproxima con la guerra.
Aquí aparece mi general favorito ❤️ y comienza el inicio del camino de Xin como miembro del ejercito.

La fin d'un arc haletant qui n'était pourtant que le prologue et enfin les premiers pas de Shin dans le monde de l'armée, vers son titre de meilleur général! Un régal.

[jd567 · Rating 4 out of 5]

Xin in the first volumes came across as a typical unkillable power-of-friendship shonen protag and many of the character designs were whimsically grotesque, which felt off for a series of this scope. This volume brings the "end of the prologue" and the beginning of "the real story" (according to the Author's Note). Xin finally comes across the way he should; overeager and out of place, and the wacky character designs from the early volumes now read as larger-than-life rather than bordering-on-fantastical.

Ei Sei gets a cool moment finishing this first big arc, and we get the briefest moments of quiet before Shin heads off to fight in an actual war army. It was a satisfying conclusion! I like that it sort of resets, we begin with Shin somehow mixed up with the king himself but as we move onto the next arc it's clear Shin isn't actually anywhere near that level. He's a capable fighter who now has a few friends in high places, he's earned a reward of his own, but he's still naive of all the intricacies of war and has a lot to prove. I'm curious how he differs from all the other soldiers now. We've seen him fight assassins and warriors and some monster gorilla-thing, but is he actually skilled on a battlefield and not some one-on-one against a single powerful foe?

I'm happy to get back into this series! Brutal as always...
