Historical Manga Kingdom Gets TV Anime in 2012

posted on by Egan Loo

This year's 51st issue of Pierrot is producing the anime.

The story follows Li Xin and Hyō, two boys without families in the Warring States Period when China has been embroiled in war for five centuries. Despite living like slaves, the boys strive to realize their dream of becoming warlords.

The manga has been running in Weekly Young Jump since 2006, and the 24th volume will ship in Japan on Friday.
