Damn, it seems the Qin army can't advance much forward after the recent developments and having to retreat. Shin had to play some mind games again after realizing his strategy had flaws.

I'm also still impressed by Kyoukai's determination in this episode and supporter for Shin.

Felt like the episode was much more psychological than the usual battlefield clashes. Not to mention, the episode took place at night.

Lei Qiang's attempted stealth mission was a little underwhelming. For what it was building up to, I figured maybe she would be able to take out one important enemy, but apparently not. At the end of the day, she got pretty injured and at best the enemy she fought against is equally injured. That isn't exactly what I would call a resounding victory. Hopefully she will be able to get away and perhaps get another chance later to get a solid victory.

Xin understanding his blunders and realizing that the best way to atone is to turn those blunders into victories is a big step for him becoming general material, but now he just needs to back it up with his actions in the battle from the second day onwards.

Another great episode once again, this season has been off to a really good start. Kyou Kai couldn't really accomplish what she set out to do with taking out a key commander's head whilst at night, but hopefully she can at least find a way to get to safety back to the Hi Shin Unit base or even more than that, find another opportunity to take Ryuu Tou out again. She took a calculated risk and Ryuu Tou was still prepared enough to lay down a traip at his quarters even when he had full confidence that no one would've been able to break through to his place, let alone that quietly. Also, Kan Ki and the bandit nature present in his group and their methods to fight and more importantly, survive was really interesting and even refreshing to watch for a series like this. They are rough around the edges but still can really pose a threat as a collective and ultimately, Kei Sha's fortifications and preparations were for naught.

Finally, good to see Shin have the confidence and belief in himself to proclaim taking Kei Sha's head to atone for the mistakes he made in the first day of the campaign. To become general in the future, he has to learn from blunders and be more adaptable to situations he is not used to besides just having brawn for everything. Hopefully he is able to back up his words and confidence with actions to make up for some mistakes in his decision-making. Ultimately, other people who are generals would need to be able to trust him enough to believe that he is capable so it's all a learning curve for him.

Really reckless move from Qiang Lei. Was hoping she’d at least get something out of it.

Looks like we might have a rescue mission next episode.

Qiang Lei in danger. They both had their resolve, so it ended up with damage to both.

Return, Qiang Lei. Xin is worried about you 😍

The shot of Raido and Zeno and the bandits escaping appeared better than the manga. The visual music in the episode was very beautiful and varied. It dwarfs the studio's excellent work so far.

I respect Kyou Kai for putting her neck the line for the fei xin force even though her sneak attack didn't go as planned, Also Shin is savage for attempting to cut of the arm of a kan ki soldier who wanted his severed arm as punishment, This is why I love Shin.

Kingdom at its finest for me, the Raido unit's unorthodox tactics and bamboozling the enemy was pure joy.

When things are too good to be true sometimes they are. What a fucking blunder.

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.

Let me take your arm instead. Shin handled him like a G. Save the empty threats for the small fries.
