The Warring States period will continue in Kingdom Season 5. After the surprising deaths in the previous season, the race to the top is about to begin again. The anime has dropped a new teaser for its upcoming season, and as Shin and his group are ready to fight, Kan Ki is seen warning the protagonist as they’re about to start working together. You can watch the preview below:
The teaser begins with Ying Zheng’s bravery being acknowledged as the public celebrate this recognition. Everyone then starts to tear up. Shin declares only one king can unify China and end the warring states, while Ying Zhen swears that he will destroy all six countries and China in 15 years. Ryo Fui foresees a great era will begin with six unification wins, and the true six great generals will be revived.
Ying Zhen then promises that they’re about to seize the first stone with six wins. From there, Shin is determined to start the fight. He is then seen with the other Hi Shin Unit members as Kan Ki welcomes them to the army. As he advises them to do whatever they can to loot and slaughter, the State General then warns Shin that he has to learn how to fight like an adult as an epic battle awaits to begin.

What is Kingdom Season 5 about?
Based on the Japanese manga of the same name by Yasuhisa Hara, Kingdom Season 5 will adapt the manga starting with Chapter 441. It will begin with the Koku You Campaign Arc, where the fight between the Qin and Zhao armies is about to start. It will also feature the battle over Koku You Hill, a strategical location for both Qin and Zhao.
General Kan Ki will serve as the Commander-in-Chief, while Shin and the Hi Shin Unit members will work as reinforcements. That said, it will surely be a must-see what kind of battle Shin and the Hi Shin Unit are about to bring here, especially now that they will be working with the Kan Ki army.
Can they finally bring Zhao down with the joint forces between the two? Find out when Kingdom Season 5 releases on January 6, 2024.
