Kingdom Season 5 Episode 1: Release Date, Speculation, Watch Online

Shin and Sei are back to conquer China with another epic season of Kingdom. Season 5 of Kingdom will soon grace everyone’s screens, and the battles will be more epic than ever before.

It is time to meet one of the most beloved manga characters in his full glory: Kan Ki, The Beheader. This Vice General serving under Great General Mo Gou’s army will be one of the main characters this season, and I am so hyped to see the man in action again. 

The season will premiere one week late because of earthquake news. We will need to wait for some more time to meet Shin and his army again.  

Here are the latest updates.

1. Episode 1 Release Date

Episode 9 of Kingdom Season 5 will be released on Saturday, January 13, 2024. It is a weekly anime, and each new episode is released every Saturday. You can watch Kingdom on Crunchyroll .

I. Is Kingdom Season 5 on break this week?

Yes, episode 9 of Kingdom Season 5 is on a break this week. It was scheduled to air from 7 January onwards but was delayed due to earthquake news. The episode will be on the above-mentioned date. 

2. Episode 1 Speculations

Qin and Zhao’s armies will cross blades again in season 5 of Kingdom as the anime picks up from where season 4 ended. 

The previous season ended on a high note, and this season will continue the ongoing Koku You Campaign arc. The anime will adapt from chapter 441 of the manga and will open up with an ongoing discussion between Ka Rin and Ri En.

Ka Rin is the Great General of the Chu military and one of the two prime ministers of the state of Chu, while Ri En is the other prime minister.  The first episode will tell us why Ri En killed Shun Shi Kun, the head of Military Affairs of the state of Chu. 

The focus will then shift to Qin and how they will plan their attack on Zhao. Kanki will be their Commander-in-Chief, and Shin and Hi Shin’s unit will be his reinforcements.  

Let the battle begin.
