Kingdom Season 1 Review

Spoiler-Free Review of #Kingdom キングダム (Anime) Season 1 that aired from 2012-2013 something I thought I would review on the channel given the fact that a new season has surfaced this year and there are probably new fans looking into getting into this series. Stay tuned for more #Anime reviews on the channel in the future.

Setting

The story of Kingdom is a fictional adaptation of the Chinese history period known as the Warring States period, which ended in 221 BC when Ying Zheng, king of Qin, succeeded in conquering the other states and unifying China.

Several of the characters are based on historical figures. Many times characters will take the names of people in history, and other times they will have completely different names. Oftentimes this is a result of Japanese Kanji borrowing from Chinese characters, meaning that some Chinese names have no equivalent characters in Kanji. For example, Ou Ki's (王騎), the name is a slightly altered version of Wang Yi, 王齮, because the last character of his name, 齮, does not exist in Kanji. #Manga
