Synopsis
Since the age of the stories, when the worlds of men and gods were still the same, millions of years have passed. At this period, the world was driven by human desires. The 500-year war known as the Era of Warring States is now under progress. Kingdom is the tale of a small kid who grew up to become a great commander and all the hardships and carnage that brought him to that point.
Background
In 2013, Kingdom was awarded the 17th Annual Tezuka Osamu Cultural Grand Prize. As of April 2017, the series has sold 30 million copies.
On December 12, 2012 the series won a Guinness World Record for manga written by the most people. The record was made possible due to its “Social Kingdom” Campaign where artists, fans, and voice actors redrew the entire 26th volume. Each of them picked 1 frame and redrew it and the top 100 would be given a special edition of the manga. Eiichiro Oda (One Piece), Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto), Hirohiko Araki (JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken) and many others were among the participants.
