Kingdom Season 5

Aired: 2024

The fifth season of this grand historical anime set in China's Spring and Autumn / Warring States period, depicting the epic tale of Shin, a former servant who aspires to become a Great General, and Ei Sei, the King of Qin who seeks to unify all of China. The story unfolds around the battle for the strategically vital 'Kokuyo Hills' in the state of Zhao, where the feared 'charismatic brute' Kanki assumes command as supreme general of the Qin forces. A highlight is the tense theater of war where Kanki's ruthless win-at-all-costs tactics collide with the convictions of Shin, who leads the Hi Shin Unit. Based on the record-breaking hit manga by Yasuhisa Hara. The OP theme is 'Douka' by DeNeel, and the ED theme is 'RULERS' by Novel Core.
