Synopsis

At the age of 18, Chu Yuan faces tremendous pressure to prove his competence as the new emperor of Chu State. He must be careful with his decisions, especially with the ongoing unrest at the borders of Chu and Xinan. However, the matter is taken from his hands when Duan Baiyue—the young Xinan King—puts an end to the rebellion himself. His aid spares Chu Yuan an insurmountable amount of grief, and the people of Chu now hail Duan Baiyue as their hero.

Two years later, Xinan's influence has grown, stirring rumors that Duan Baiyue intends to take over Chu State soon. As he stands before a winter plum tree, a furious Chu Yuan does not know what to think and recalls a promise made long ago. The tension reaches a breaking point when a visiting duke of Ahnu, an ally of Chu State, is found dead in the streets of Chu.

帝王攻略 is a Chinese anime obviously not perfect in everything, but with good strengths letting me recommending it, especially for people being used to watching Chinese anime, but it can also be a satisfying first Chinese anime for non-initiates. This review is spoiler – free.

This animation is very beautiful as I could not stop watching the episodes continuously. However, the pacing was bad. For example, in the beginning, the story progressed slowly, however at the end, it progressed quickly which leaves me unsatisfied with the ending. Therefore you have to use your imagination at the cliffhangers that this story offers you.

I think it is easy to get confused with the plot if you are not familiar with the concept of how royal works. I found myself having to replay some parts to understand the complex hierarchy, position and so on.

It was worth the watch, and if I have ...

Mixed Feelings
It’s a shame this anime was handled so poorly because there’s clearly some good potential here.
But the production just made a shameful work here.

The animation is clearly on a budget, but the art style is not completely trash. Backgrounds and landscapes are pretty well drawn, but characters are often sloppy, sometimes producing a weird contrast. There are some sequences where you can clearly see they capped on frames, making the whole animation feel so non fluid and cheap. A real shame.


The story complexity is pretty balanced, but the pacing is awful, making it harder to understand. Somehow it makes it seem as if the screen ...
