Damn, a lot of emotional feelings in this finale. Kyoukai really has a detrmination to live and finish what she started.

Definitely one of the intense battles outside of the usual battlefield. Following Kyoukai's fight into this finale really got me invested into her personality as well. I think the directors did a solid job at protraying her feelings. Solid season overall imo.

Season 4 got announced!

The art isn't as beautiful with some of the scenes as the manga but this anime surely has come a long way with how its animated with scenes like these, compared to how they would have been done in the past. Nice to see Kyou Kai finally find her resolve and put her issues to rest, and rejoin the Hi Shin Unit at the end after over a year of being on hiatus from it. She has her home now and will be with them for the foreseeable future now. Really nice episode.

And for this season, it's been a very, very long run. April 5th, 2020 - October 17th, 2021 for 26 episodes lol. But man over that year and a half, did I get some absolutely great content to watch, epic moments and battles from the tactical matchups to the slugfests, fantastic music, and so much more. Glad to have season 4 air next year in April 2022, hopefully that doesn't take a year and a half for its run too. It's been real Kingdom Season 3, and will miss the greatness of the Coalition Arc here.

9.7/10 for this season. Or just simply, fuck it, a 10 on MAL and my 2nd favorite anime as a whole of 2021 behind Mushoku Tensei.

You Lian didn't stand a chance against Qiang Lei's power of friendship backing her.

Qiang Lei crying after it was over was definitely an emotional moment.

This was definitely the strongest season of Kingdom and I'm excited for season 4.

16:44 "...but as long as I have this light... I can come back."

Yay! that ended well. I was worried about QIANG LEI, but finally she's avenged her sister, and has joined FEI XIN force. XIN's unit has become more powerful now ; the next season will be an exciting one!

Thank You!

Strong beginning with a strong end to the season. Really satisfying.

Qiang Lei is one of my fav characters in this anime and I’m glad she’s being developed right. Honestly all of the female characters are awesome in their own right.

In the end, we reached the end of this season with many adventures, dramas and action. It was a great pleasure to watch him. I can't wait for season 4 of this anime in April 2022 and I hope it doesn't affect COVID-19 any more next season's production. And saying something about this episode, Kyou Kai managed to avenge her sister in the end by thinking of none other than Shin and returning to her friends <3 I can't wait to see the action in the next fights.

So, next month will be my 11th year since joining MAL and Kingdom s3 is going to be the first time i score an anime a 10, its been that amazing. Funnily enough i had a few concerns after the first 2 episodes but for whatever reason after the hiatus the show has been unrecognizable for the better and all my concerns were washed away.

'Intensity' is probably the watch word here, it just grabbed you in its wave and it just didn't let up for almost the entirety of its duration, each episode was one spectacle after another. This arc is one of the greatest arcs in any media and i'm happy to see it got a worthy adaptation.

I am glad that I waited to binge this season instead of watching weekly. It just impacts harder as a binge. Plus, with the unfamiliar names and some similar faces, it would be nearly impossible to remember who is what or where. This season was a blast and hopefully season 4 will keep up the quality. Ironically, these last couple of episodes did feel pretty disjointed from the rest of the season, which makes sense as it's a disjointed plot line. But thankfully they got it over with quickly and now Lei Quang is back with Xin and the gang. Not sure if this is my favorite season yet, but it was close. I feel like Li Mu was more intimidating before this season and of course Wang Yi is irreplaceable. But the battles and tactics were as fun and engaging as always. I can't praise this series enough.

That was great. Previous 2 season had bigger but fewer iconic scene, but this season lots of smaller iconic moment which together gave a bigger payoff overall and everything was in a grander scale.
Coalition Invasion Arc indeed was as awesome as everything people hyped. I had a blast watching it. Looking forward to next season

I have read the manga up to the latest chapter. Let me tell you. It does not fall off in the slightest. For some reason, Kingdom only gets more dope as it goes on. Not gonna spoil anything, but Kingdom truly kicks off with it's philosphy and politics from after the coalition invasion arc. I thought it was great. Hope that you will enjoy it.

The Second half was fire. It reminded me why the Coaltion Arc was so much fun to read.

Safe to say that Kingdom 3 was one of the best anime this year.

On to Season 4 we ride the hype train.

to be honest, this arc felt really different in any meaning of this series. power of friendship and sacred danced lol, too much shounen-ish. the important part was much more it's end for qyang lei accept to herself. and though this arc probably had more to offer in the manga than the anime (As manga readers stated in this forum), i will still consider this story as extra to the overall story of this arc.
in fact, in some sense this arc could have been get OVA as well and ending the season with the coalition arc, giving two more episodes to them than rushing it's end.

now about the season.
it truly continued well the story from s2, but as it started, though the animation and OST got HUGE improving, the story still felt the same. not that it's bad, but it made me hesitate scoring this season 10 as it should for it's animation art and OST. but starting from ep15 where the last stage of coalition arc started the story just kept better and better, and more intense. the final battle was so intense i couldn't even made myself stop watching, truly masterpiece of arc.
together with superb upgrade art from s2 and OST this season felt much seinen the most, not forgetting the songs of course. s2 kinda felt still shounen-ish like s1 for it opening one-piece-style though the content got much matured. while s1 was shounen-ish for t's animation like ant not songs. but s3 got it all in. the new studio made the anime much better than it was. it still not that uncensored but still showed much more than previous seasons, truly seinen feel than before.
i will say it once and for last, kingdom's best point is it's story, with every arc it's simply getting better and better. s2 made it through with great story for war, but coalition arc made it big for it's tense battles.

final note, i had been marathoned the seasons till now, and man what a ride.
i'm glad i finished this closed to s4 starting airing in april, but since i love marathoning i'm wondering if i will have the patience for it lol.

Kyou Kai's revenge took the last 2 episodes of the third season. It's a great change after a massive war and this brought up a lot of emotions. Kyou Kai's revenge against the Shiyuu finally ended after she went deep down in the darkness but the POWER to get through it is to find something that can pull you out of it. That is te Hi Shin Unit, her home. It's great for her to finally have ended her 5-year long revenge and return to the unit. She's finally back and her time to move forward has arrived.

Man, my journey with Kingdom just happend out of nowhere. I started the manga on a sunday evening, binged the shit out of it while enjoying myself to the fullest, watching the first and second season (not all) and then moving on to the third season where everything even got better than before. This arc had everything from execiting battles to political warfare, godly soundtrack and good animation for most of the part. This is a fucking 10/10 i my book. I've gained a lot of interest in a lot of characters in this season for example; Lord Hyou, Kan Ki, Ou Sen and so on. I can't wait to see more of them.

The thing with Kyoukai is that she's achieved her goal. Now that she's come back, which of course is great, what's gonna be her purpose? She can't be risking her life in wars just so she can be with her friends. Cause Xin wants to be the greatest general, Ten wants to be the greatest tactician. What about her? Anyway, great season.

I finally got around watching this.

It's not as good as manga but damn it was still far better than I thought it would be. The first season truly tells how much Kingdom adaptation had to overcome to be nowhere near as good. Giant armies and war are too difficult to animate. That especially if there is censorship involved. Then there are many cool panels from manga that didn't made it through in it's full glory.

And yet this season still managed to deliver the greatness that is Kingdom.
