Kingdom 4th Season Episode 25 Discussion

I knew Zheng wouldn't actually kill the Queen Dowager's kids. He didn't even kill the Queen Dowager herself. Lao Ai though.......well, that was a brutal execution. It's annoying that they can't just get rid of Liu Buwei yet, but the court system in place isn't that convenient. Speaking of Lu Buwei, he totally had me believing Zheng was his son. They kind of look similar and it would have made the story and rivalry between them all the more thrilling and poetic. But alas, he said he was joking....or was he? Haha.

Xin better become one of the six great generals soon in order to help Zheng unite/conquer all the kingdoms. It looks like a pretty daunting task, but I am confident that they can accomplish it.

Man, the moment Ryo Fui mentioned that Sei was his son, my jaw literally dropped (in the manga). You couldn't tell if he was lying or not. I mean, I would have believed it if he didn't joke around. Anyway, it was obvious that he wouldn't kill his own mother and her kids. That's the kind of king he is. Shin's about to NEG everyone sooner or later. Hopefully a fifth season will be announced.

Lame. I knew this series wouldn't have the balls.

After S1 10 years ago, who would've thought that Kingdom would ever become this good?

5/5

I mean the story was always elite and people acknowledged that. S1 is actually very well rated considering how awful it looked.

Right! My god when he said that he was my son, I was like OH Fuuuck here we ago another Lu Buwei scheme hahaha.

I really hope we get a season 5, I can't believe this show doesn't get more love, though I totally slept on it for years because of the art isn't it something like the top 3 manga sold in JP currently still.

Kingdon has been growing, we see the characters growing not only their physical bodies, but above all their psychological ones. Perhaps the one that grew the most was Zhang, the one that gained the most layers in relation to the others. A negative point this season were dragged episodes that had plots that didn't lead anywhere, the confrontation between the king and the chancellor at the end tasted bitter, I still think the second season was the best, the third is the worst of the seasons. 4 for what he promised and for what he delivered.

zooker said:


the third is the worst ?!

no one ever said that except you , cuz that arc is considred top 10 arcs in mangas not only kingdom and this is not my opinoin i have been folowing kingdom fandom for years and watching the reaction of many readers or anime fans or reviews , it can't be at all that 3d season is less than 2 or 4 not even equal .

the only logical reason is that this Work not your type .

--
also what is points in this season that dragged it fo nowhere ?

OgregO said:



Well I think the love story between the character of wei (Shi Ei) and Shi Kika, didn't lead anywhere, I thought his motivation was weak and as a character too, strong? yes, skillful? also, but as a character I found him shallow and unfortunately I feel the same as almost all the generals presented in the coalition, many were presented, they were promised to be relevant characters and soon after they died without saying what they came for.

OgregO said:


well this cuz expected something rarely happenen in kingdom , which i means good character for a general that will die soon in one arc ,
KINGDOM is not this type of manga that delve into the character of the enemy generals , it's only show the character throw his moves and strategy etc.

but agree on earl shi with or without his fb his character is meh .

i don't understand this part ?!
"they died without saying what they came for."

zooker said:


In a way of speaking, I meant that the characters were presented as someone important, someone strong, and throughout the anime they never really showed that potential.
