| Kingdom is back and it still felt so intense just seeing the world setting and cast again. Some of the captains has jawbreaking achievements. They didn't waste much time at all for setting up the battlefield and rivalries between certain states. I'm paying more attention to Qin this season so far since there's a lot of highlight on him and his army. There's also the strategic movements and battle tactics that the show is familiar with. So good to see Kingdom return! |

| amazing start to the season missed shin and the other a lot this arc is different from any other we've seen so far capturing hills instead of castles seems interesting can't wait for more |

| It's finally Kanki season. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
 Yes, they look like boobies. |

| KINGDOM IS SO BACKKKK !!!!! Best Seasonal anime this season for sure !!! PEOPLE SLEEPIN !!! CRAZY START MANNNNN ! AND WHAT A DUO : Kanki x Shin !  |
Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Neo: What truth? Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. |
| This is where we see the reality of Kan Ki. It's gonna be very exciting and brutal when we get to the end, but the start is as good. Good to see Shin and his group back. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| here we are after a 1 week delay and straight into it they already got ambushed. |
 |
| Kingdom is back and is as good as ever! Diving right back into another gripping tactical battle. The highlight was definitely the confrontation between Huan Yi and Xin and showing how similar their backgrounds were but how different they both turned out to be. I wouldn't be surprised if Huan Yi knew about a potential ambush and used Xin as bait for that reason, though I hope that's not the case. Hopefully Xin and his forces are able to make a relatively quick comeback and make it through okay. |
 |
| Finally! The all-time best strategy story-centric anime is back! Will Xin get sliced? Oh noo! |
| HYPE. Welcome back Kingdom! Strong first episode 💪 |
| Holyy we're so back, not wasting any time just straight in the battle starts. Most unique battlefield we've seen so far , and probably we getting Shin vs Ba Tei in the next ep. Cant wait for the rest of the season |
| Finally peak story is back. Now winter despite its shitty shows is completely better thanks to Kingdom. |
 |
| Best show of the season is back! |
| Great to see Kingdom back and it is in full force already with the start of the Kokuyou Campaign arc. Kan Ki and Shin's confrontation was so great and should be a standout element in this arc. Both having seemingly tough upbringings as a bandit and servant respectively but both could not be more different in ideals and morals, so seeing them clash while having to work together in the anime should be a fun, frenetic experience. The cliffhanger was great too as Hi Shin Force are in trouble dealing with Zhao's strategists getting the drop on them and having them surround Shin's force so easily (which could easily be Kan Ki using them as 'bait' too). Also, seeing those Zhao citizens and children panic heavily that Kan Ki is heading to them and planning to kill/skin them makes the show actually present Kan Ki and his force as antagonists in this situation, which is a refreshing contrast compared to the others in Qin. It shows that while Qin is the army that is most focused on due to Shin and Ei Sei being a part of it, by no means is it an army that is perfect morally and just has good, generic human beings which makes it even more interesting watching Kan Ki. Guy relishes in his bandit life and personality but clearly he has the strength to rise up the ranks and still be depended upon even now by Qin. This episode and series really does feel like a breath of fresh air compared to what all is releasing this season, and I'm really happy to have Kingdom back. Think Season 5 will be even better than Season 4. |

I feel like this is an unusual first ep for kingdom where we used to get a recap and a preparation for the setting of the story. explaining time skips where the narrator takes a huge part of it but this time we jumped straight into the action and important scenes. but not gonna lie I felt kinda lost trying to remember everything after waiting for two years so I had to pause the ep several times and think deeply. but overall it was a great episode, some kind of a good animation I really appreciate this and I am happy that the anime adaptation still going truely kingdom is the most underrated anime wich I dont uderstand why. at the end I hope this work won't be ruined by any chance. cant wait to see more |
| The God of all underrated anime is back with fire |
| Heavens committed a sin. |
| KINGDOM!!!!!!!!!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Xin is screwed from the get go huh? |
 |
| This is one of the best arcs in the series. Hyped. |
| starts the season and Xin has 2 enemies, one on the battlefield and the other on his own side. kekeke |

This is where we see the reality of Kan Ki. It's gonna be very exciting and brutal when we get to the end, but the start is as good. Good to see Shin and his group back.
| @SideCharacterKal Edit: Also the voices for Ma Ron and Na Ki, totally different from what I've imagined. I'm happy, though. |

| HOLY shit kindgom coming out swinging. Damn this is anime, this is what we are here for bois |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I thought I posted here, but anyways, strong and intense start this season. Let’s go!! |
 |
| Liked the first episode. It’s setting the pace for the intensity to come next. I doubt Kan Ki’s plan is as plain as they make it seem. Gotta remember the names of the enemy. Kei Sha and the new guy Ki Sui. |
 |
| Starting off fast with an ambush and a showdown cliff hanger amazing first ep |
| Inhales oxygen |
