Kingdom

What the fuck? This is genuinely interesting past 50 chapters. It's got action, politics, and an interesting cast of characters. Why isn't this more popular?

No powerelevelfaggotry and you need to know about that timeframe to get a lot of what's going on. As a musoufag, it's on my radar, I just need to get the time to read it.

1. It is popular and for a few years now it's been in the top 10 yearly manga sales rankings

2. because you're an absolutely worthless newfag shit

>you need to know about that timeframe to get a lot of what's going on.
I disagree. I know nothing of China's history and I can follow along just fine.

It is popular, Sup Forums used to discuss it but for some reason the interest dwindle after a while.

>dont care what the fuck is going on, as long as mc wins

Interest dwindled because the scanlations caught up, so there were no longer daily updates.

The anime used horrible cgi, but I still liked it. Animation is my prefered medium, so I will only see more of kingdom if more anime is made. Sadly, I think it's popularity on here has dwindled partly because it has no animation anymore. I really loved the story for what I got to see.

I think it isn't discussed here much now because it's better to read many chapters in a row. Waiting every week is suffering

I dont know about you guys but I find the whole thing tiresome to read at times. Dont get me wrong, the whole ordeal was kind of interesting from time to time, but the author has knack of making things all grandiose to the point of complete absurdity and this grandiosity drags the story to the point that it got completely tiresome.

>A new enemy!!
>so epic!!
>best tactician!!
>epic staredown!!
>NANI!!
>H...he's willing to do that!!
>BASTARD!!
>Heh! Nothing personnel!

I dunno, I am past that three hill battle and the gang are sieging some place and admiring the bandit general. I dunno if it gets better.

It gets so fucking repetitive it isn't fun anymore.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. All of the newly introduced 'bad-ass' general have One Fucking Expression and that is the Smug Smile of Confidence.

>I am bestest general
>oh no why is he smiling when his troops are dying
>its all part of the plan
>ooooh so great.

Yeah that shit was repeated with all the so called 'bad-ass' characters. Hell even the royal haren queen wears the same face!

First of all, it was the third best-selling manga of 2017 and very close to number two so it's obviously popular

And second of all, it's based in history nobody in the West knows, so to them it may as well be fantasy and they can't appreciate it that way

At this point, I've cooled off on it but only because the series got too popular so I doubt the author will keep things historical for what would actually be the most interesting and important twist in the series and I don't want to get hyped for disappointment

its close enough to history that the author could have a mental disability and not fuck up the plot arc

its not really proof of being good. people tend to be fairly versed in the basics of chink history over there

what
said. We were getting 3-6 chapter dumps every 2-3 days for a few months straight. After that going to a weekly release killed all the hype.

It's just a repeatitive garbage

>interesting cast of characters.
>fills the cast with the same 2cool4u character archtypes as the manga progresses.

There is a reason why its not that popular.

I only care about Kyokai. Everything else is filler. Make another thread when they age her.

i forced myself to watch the anime and am going to go onto read the manga when i get off my ass - it starts off looking like a steaming pile of dogshit and eventually looks quite a bit better with some dogshit in between okay scenes

the bar i'd set for recommendation is if you enjoyed golden age berserk, then you pretty much want to start this series asap - the stuff you have to get used to is the fucktarded chink names all being/sounding similar and also learning some new history type memes that you'd probably not be familiar with

its got some good ingredients; politics, history, war, world building, action, adventure, and so on but i can imagine that it might get tedious as it goes on - i've still yet to get deeper than whatever the anime covers

Meh, her arc is nice and all and she is an interesting character. Far more interesting than the next smug smiling general who everyone is afraid off and can plow down fully armored soldiers like it was nothing.

The only thing I might get remotely excited is when Qin Shi Huang fullfills his destiny as becoming the insane emperor and force his people to make all of those terakota soldiers and his mercury tomb.

the series is ok but gets overrated by its fans.

It's great...until you realise that Ying Zheng will turn into a paranoid despot who buries scholars alive and drinks mercury until death in a ironic attempt to gain immortality.
