Is it just me, or is Hara literally repeating Hango again?
no special tactics, no formations, no complex strategies
just all out random melee brawls with a lot of pep talk and morale boosts...
and the Qin want to finish it FAST too (Hango was barely a single day)
please don't tell me all Kingdom arcs are going to be like this starting from now on... otherwise, this manga is REALLY washed

There’s likely only going to be one battle in the entirety of this Han conquest which is just a head-to-head clash.
At this point it feels like Hara has reduced the story to the bare minimum, just giving us two GG caliber figures from Han, have them be defeated asap and move on to another Zhao battle.
I’m not saying this should be another 100-200 chapters type of arc but the way things are progressing feels so hasty, as if Hara just wants to get it over with.
Its almost like he realized that he spent TOO LONG on the pre-state conquering segment of the manga... that when we actually started getting into the REAL UNIFICATION part, he had to speed up it up, or else he ends up writing another 800+ chapters...
Let me rephrase this: we spent over 800 chapters and yet not a single state has been defeated yet.
Not every mangaka is a crackhead like Loda who is content spending half his lifespan writing the same trash over and over. Hara is around his age, but did not receive the same popularity, advertising and opportunities as the OP franchise did.
Kingdom started in 2006 and has been running for almost TWO DECADES by now. You can already see the cracks appear in the writing and the art. Just compare recent arcs like Hango or Gian to old ones like Bayou and Sanyou and the difference is honestly like night and day.
Its sad to see, but it looks like we'll be slugging through horribly put-together arcs from now on, where there is no more passion put into the writing, so we get lame random melee duels here and there with no clever thought behind them, until Hara can fill his checklist of "yep, this state is done, now next one..."

I've BEEN saying Kingdom is in decline for years at this point. It's not been what it was since Shukai. The battles just haven't been very good at all.
It's complete lunacy.
I think Princess Nei will only be relevant after the battle.
Shin's development would've been considerably different.
Hara had an interview a while back during Shukai and spoke regarding future events past unification. In particular, he discussed about how many volumes it would take him to get to them, and that he would discuss it with his team after the current battle (Shukai) ended.
I believe he had that discussion and they've been flying through previously planned material and ticking boxes since.

What if Ouki hadn't died?
