Kingdom is based on the Shueisha-published manga set during the Warring States period by Yasuhisa Hara. Crunchyroll describes the anime series, which began in 2012, as:
Shin and Hyou are war-orphans in the kingdom of Qin. They dream of proving themselves on the battlefield until the day Hyou is captured by a minister. The boy manages to escape and return to his village, but he is badly injured. Shin then encounters a mysterious youth who bears an eerie resemblance to Hyou—a boy who will one day become emperor!

The Kingdom manga first appeared in Weekly Young Jump in 2006 and has 76 volumes published as of July 2025. It won the 17th Osamu Tezuka Cultural Prize and surpassed 110 million copies in print circulation by December 2024. Viz Media announced in February 2025 that it had licensed the manga.
