Kingdom Manga has etched its place as one of the longest-running manga series, captivating readers since its first volume release on May 19, 2006. Published by Shueisha Inc. in Weekly Young Jump, this manga has been a source of continuous entertainment with its engaging plot and memorable characters. But what does the future hold for Kingdom Manga, and when can fans expect its grand conclusion?
Unlike many long-running manga series that release one volume per year, Kingdom Manga takes it up a notch with three volume releases annually, maintaining a steady level of production. This consistent output keeps the fans engaged and eagerly awaiting each new instalment.
Why Kingdom Manga will continue beyond 2030?
Author Yasuhisa Hara has reassured fans that there are no imminent plans to conclude the manga. With numerous untold arcs awaiting exploration, the journey of Kingdom continues. Speculations arise about a possible end in 2036, marking 30 years of its run, but Hara’s focus remains on the intricate plotlines yet to unfold.
Hara’s vision for Kingdom Manga extends to covering the collapse of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, delving into the Qin campaigns against the Xiongnu and Yue tribes. This ambitious storytelling ensures that many more volumes are in the pipeline, promising readers an expansive and immersive narrative.
Kingdom Manga has not only stood the test of time but has also achieved a remarkable milestone. It has about 100 million copies in circulation as of January 2024. Readers are drawn to its popularity not only because of its compelling narrative but also because of the beautiful artwork that brings the historical saga to life. The legacy of Kingdom Manga, marked by its unique production pace and intricate storytelling, will keep impressing one and all.
