@God Buggy I always loved the idea of Ouhon being a step ahead of Shin but i think they'll be promoted together.

@Elder Lee Hung That is possible but what about Kyoukai. Inevitably she gotta get a spot too since she parallels Kyou.

God Buggy

"Kyoukai can be promoted to another manga"

- @Owl Ki, probably.

MarineHQ

@God Buggy i definitely directed a fair amount of slander towards Kyoukai myself because she was the reason for some of Kingdom's lowest writing choices but damn she delivers with badass panels.

I think from time to time we gotta just sit back and enjoy some unrealistic slaughter lol.

Houken destroying Kyoukai was eye candy

I think I know who's involved in Yan invasion from history spoilers but I won't mention it here.

I'm just curious how Hara is gonna make Yan a threat. I guess they could have others besides Ordo, but some prior foreshadowing would have been nice.

Elder Lee Hung

Kyoukai isn’t going to be Qin 6 after Zhao lol. If Kyoukai goes from 5,000 man commander to Qin 6, I’m never going to read another Kyoukai arc ever again. Lol

MarineHQ

@Elder Lee Hung Kai is the Zoro of Kingdom, don't be surpised lol

Elder Lee Hung

Kyoukai is to Hara what poison swamps are to Miyazaki. All Souls fans hate poison swamps but Miyazaki loves them and always puts atrocious poison swamp areas into his games.

Kingdom fans: “can we get a Shibashou reveal?”

Hara: “how about a Kyoukai arc?” Lol

MarineHQ

I'm really glad that I've forgotten the vast majority of history spoilers i read like 5 years ago or so lol. Obviously every Kingdom reader knows some of the big twists coming but well we also knew that Kanki gets done in and it was still beautifully written.

Hara didn't take an easy story to write but the man pulls it off. Goated.

Owl Ki

@God Buggy I do indeed agree with that sentiment. Lol.

Anyone remember Gaku Jou? He was related to Gakuki. Maybe he went to Yan?

Elder Lee Hung

If Gakujou is in Yan but Ordo is still referenced as their strongest commander, we can write off Gakujou entirely imo. Lol

God Buggy

@Owl Ki Gaku Jou will be preparing Zhao's defences alongside Chou Kotsu.

"Zhao citizens!! The Qin dogs that are coming at us shall be find their burial in these lands!!! Do no falter, as we two are men who possess the same amount of talent as the two heroes who once ravaged China's plains: Gakuki of Yan, the "Military God", and Chousa of the Three Great Heavens!!!"

Owl Ki

@Elder Lee Hung wait? Really? Damn, I don't remember that. Lol. There could be ways around that statement though like Gaku Jou being retired or Jou joining Yan after that statement was made.

Owl Ki

@God Buggy that does sound cool. Lol. Would beg the question of wtf Jou has been doing while Zhao has been getting bitch slapped for several arcs though.

God Buggy

@Owl Ki After Gaku Jou's world was destroyed by Renpa he thought this:
"Renpa spared me. Now, since the Qin Mougou army who won against that same man contains not one but two monsters, one of 'em being a freak who brutalizes people in the worst ways possible...mmm...mmmm....what if I faced them? Yes let's not go there."

"Being a general is kinda bad you know, I'll stop".

Elder Lee Hung

Yeah @Owl Ki i forgot where but they did say Ordo was Yan’s best commander after Gekishin died.

God Buggy

For real? Lol.

Elder Lee Hung

Yeah, iirc there was a quote at one point where someone had said “there is one man in Yan capable of leading hundred’s of thousands of men,” and then the scene cut to Ordo. Implying Ordo is the only current Yan commander who can lead armies of that size. I’m looking at the wiki but can’t find the reference atm. Lol

Elder Lee Hung

And it makes sense, he was their Coalition commander after all. Lol

God Buggy

RIP.

Elder Lee Hung

I remember that was when my excitement for Yan died. And so I thought Kanki would live. Lol
