Replying here for better visibility. Hey oshit, quick question: Have you guys just forgotten about updating the MEGA folder with the volumes or is there another reason that I am unaware of (like a delay in tankōbon releases or something)?
Oh and also, obviously, thanks for your continued hard work.
This wasn’t supposed to sound like “Oi, why aren’t there new volume archives uploaded yet, huh!?” but upon rereading my previous reply I thought I’d better make sure to clarify that this was indeed not its intent (even though it might come across that way).
Yes, we all knew it will come just at the end, no way to avoid it. But i don’t really know if Shin will kill him this time . I hope so, Houken has become an irritating-borderline boring character. Or will he once again flee for another stretched fight?
It’s interesting because I really don’t think we can assume Ousen doesn’t expect this I mean Houken has done this shit at basically all of Riboku’s major victories/battles.
You guys talk about cheat code. May I just remind you all the Ouki was as good at warfare as Riboku and bested Houken not once, but three times. First when he left Houken for dead in their first encouter, second when he stopped just short of dealing the killing blow when Riboku arrived, third when he nearly cut Houken down once again but got an arrow in the back.
Let’s also talk about his right hand man, Tou. In chapter 281, Tou literally cuts through a defending army all on his own to quickly cut down their General, who was himself a top general of the state of Chu.
Cheat code=i lack the vision to understand that kingdom contains a unusually high, legendary, level of narrative integrity
At least thats what i believe, bc every time i have looked for or heard ppl describe plot holes, ive also found Hara sensei 8 steps ahead of all of us.
Shin is the cheat character, even his stats have an asspull-meter, he can teleport, he can both fight and command, and he’s semi-beat Houken once by now. Houken on the other hand can only fight, and has a weakness to Great General-type enemies. Canonically a giant buffoon.
Only valid point is his stats, but- u ever watch sports? Ever seen the rare kind of athelete, like michael jordan, who got better when the stakes were higher?
Guess theyre cheating too
Also, houken came on his own. Would have, even if riboku asked
Fun fact: We started translating Kingdom in February 2013 while I was working in Singapore and Malaysia on some stuff for SESCO and other energy generation related companies.
Party pooper has come, what the hell is wrong with this guy. He’s slowpoke though.
Btw it’s funny how everybody is:”What? Shin really did it???” – like it was not their plan for this day, but a surprise.
Too bad the Qin army ain’t that free to use the same tactic. Imagine Kyou Kai unleashed in the middle of the night on the Zhao army… Tenchu Time mudafakkas!
Houken’s title wasn’t really “fake.” He carried, and carries, all the authority of his title, he just doesn’t use it to issue strategic or tactical commands. As a Three Heaven or commander, nobody in the army can order him around, but nobody can ignore him either. It creates a situation where his personal goals can be more easily aligned with Zhao’s military goals, while ensuring he retains his independence and gets to involve himself if he wants.
Also, did u not notice that when shin killed the spear guy, we saw houken in his woods, take notice?? did you not catch on that he started walking that very day towards the red plains?
hell ya, houken’s going straight for shin, but given he’s now on Qin’s right, I think he’s going to cut through their whole army to get to Shin… but, Kyoukai knows he’s there, so when the reports come in, Shin will know he has to ride to Houken… to finish it…
I was gonna bitch on how would Shin defend against Houken but then I noticed he was on Mouten’s side so I don’t really care.
Not sure Shin would ride all the way to the other wing just to fight Houken. That would be pathetic because enemy would think Qin has nothing other than Shin.
Houken’s killed great generals Kou and Ouki, and Duke Hyou, while laying waste to every army between him and his chosen target. If someone kills him first, awesome, but shin should still go, to minimize loses.
wow nice result—thouhg that ending with whatever his name is again…wow that was crazy terrifying a bit—great ilustrations though—houken looked like a deathly reaper X_X thanks again turnip that was a SUPERR chapter = DDDD Btw, was it houken who killed ouki??
The author forgot about the archer unit and the archer brothers? I don’t think so, remember hiw Ouki defeated in the first place. Just because of a tiny arrow.
I’m quite worried for him. It’ll be his job to face Houken. But, he’s a finesse fighter, and Houken’s combo of power, speed and agility make him a really bad match up for finesse fighters.
Ouhon’s gonna take the field for sure, unless he literally can’t ride a horse or his men tie him up. His pride maybe could’ve handled ‘defeat’ by gyou’un. But to further be saved and carried by the Hi Shin unit, no way. He’d rather die. I think he’ll lead his and (some of)Akou’s army in an attack on the left of Bananji and Gyou’un, and Shin will go right at Riboku.
And I wonder if Houken will show in the day. I’d put it more likely he comes next night, that is, as long as his injury is healed enough for him to feel like fighting Shin makes sense. But, then again, he’s houken, unpredictable.
Riboku and his men\woman did not seem panicked, or as if their morale was dinged. Therefore, Riboku is confident, and has a plan…. What, I dunno.
Ousen will know there’s a plan too. And have a few of his own. It still will be and always was Ousen vs Riboku, but Shin is now a wildcard on the field, capable of ‘upsetting the balance’ (as ousen said of mouten as well)

The daily chapters are uploaded to dropbox. I’ve been way too lazy about updating the mega folders and will do so this week or on the weekend.
I’ve been too busy snowboarding the pacific northwest and whistler blackcomb 😛
Are you staying in Canada? If you make it to San Francisco, I owe you many many drinks…
Nope, ran out of money XD
That was…a good chapter. Shin should heal as quickly as he can, because he has another grudge to solve I guess…with Ouki’s glaive.
Yes, Bananas taste really good…Akakin Skywalker likes them too.
Thanks for the Chapter
Thank you for the chapter!
Cheat code activated by Riboku

Thanks for the chapter,mate
no worries, mate
My asshole clenches so goddamn hard sometimes with this manga.
houken is an abominable hax. needs to be deleted asap.

Or, you guys arent paying enough attention

Live Liverpool who Erased Barca? YNWA Bro
I don’t like bananas
Neither do I. ggr made the post.
I don’t hate them but they are my least preferred fruit.
Only because their mighty girth acts as a constant reminder of your tiny pp.
Oh snibbity snap!
you should try them battered and deep fried.. 😋
I make exceptions for fritters. Pisang Goreng yes please.
You know pisang goreng?? You’ve been to Indonesia maybe?
I’m from Indonesia, and I love pisang goreng!
i believe this oshit come from Aussie or Sing…
tell me if i wrong
I’m Australian.
Fun fact: We started translating Kingdom in February 2013 while I was working in Singapore and Malaysia on some stuff for SESCO and other energy generation related companies.
I haven’t been to Indonesia yet unfortunately.
Actually IIRC, Chapters 19-21 were worked on in Kuching airport and on the plane while I was on a flight to Singapore:
Yep riboku just use his paypal to rent a G.M
Thank you!!!! How come they didn’t show what happen to the right wing of the right wing? They only showed the left wing of the right wing.
Party pooper has come, what the hell is wrong with this guy. He’s slowpoke though.
Btw it’s funny how everybody is:”What? Shin really did it???” – like it was not their plan for this day, but a surprise.
And here come code shark cheat on ps 2, hahahaha
Jreng …. Jreng …. Jreng
Too bad the Qin army ain’t that free to use the same tactic. Imagine Kyou Kai unleashed in the middle of the night on the Zhao army… Tenchu Time mudafakkas!
She’s tried and barely made it out alive vs Kisui’s strategist friend in a previous arc.
so she should learn from that mistake and do it better next time…
Its not a tactic. It wasnt a tactic even when houken was given a fake title of “general” in that other war.
If it wae a tactic, itd be a bad one
Houken’s title wasn’t really “fake.” He carried, and carries, all the authority of his title, he just doesn’t use it to issue strategic or tactical commands. As a Three Heaven or commander, nobody in the army can order him around, but nobody can ignore him either. It creates a situation where his personal goals can be more easily aligned with Zhao’s military goals, while ensuring he retains his independence and gets to involve himself if he wants.
You should try cooking it with some minced meat and curry.
Banana’s in curry!? Sacrilege!
Thanks for the chapter
Houken… Again… Really getting tiresome save plot.
Thank you very much for your hard work and incredible translations! What a great chapter!
Ok for the record, anyone complaining houken showed up, stop! Its embarassing!
He can sense martial aura. Shin, kyoukai, have been setting off his antennae for years. Shin is now carrying ouki’s glaive.
Its not a cheat. Its not random. Houken was also WALKING from some random forest to this field.
If houken HADNT shown for this war, youd have a reason to complain. Now, your complaints are simply thoughtless whining for the sake of- sorry to say
Also, did u not notice that when shin killed the spear guy, we saw houken in his woods, take notice?? did you not catch on that he started walking that very day towards the red plains?
… jeez
Word. Houken is dope and it’s great to see him again.
hell ya, houken’s going straight for shin, but given he’s now on Qin’s right, I think he’s going to cut through their whole army to get to Shin… but, Kyoukai knows he’s there, so when the reports come in, Shin will know he has to ride to Houken… to finish it…
I’m so dang happy
I was gonna bitch on how would Shin defend against Houken but then I noticed he was on Mouten’s side so I don’t really care.

That chapter had a death flag written all ovef it. Mouten…
I’m quite worried for him. It’ll be his job to face Houken. But, he’s a finesse fighter, and Houken’s combo of power, speed and agility make him a really bad match up for finesse fighters.
Incorrect. Mouten is a historical figure. He will live or die because he lived or died. I believe so-far there is only one exception.
mouten has plot armor

:O
cant believe those long-never-exhaust-energy, haw tired it is? even shousa dimmed, thats it!
even i holding ma breath when read
excellent works as always , thank you very much
and near the end those llong exhausting fight is houken, a **** imba ***** **** **** and ******
o sh*********t
really want to see zhao’s / riboku reaction to gyou granary burning. and exactly how many day remaining. will there be revolt from refugees?
Ouhon’s gonna take the field for sure, unless he literally can’t ride a horse or his men tie him up. His pride maybe could’ve handled ‘defeat’ by gyou’un. But to further be saved and carried by the Hi Shin unit, no way. He’d rather die.
