One of the Most Requested Manga Ever Is Finally Getting an English Release!
It’s been a long time coming, but Kingdom—one of the biggest manga series ever—is finally getting an official English translation!
Kingdom Has Had Everything… Except an English Manga
The series has already had an anime, multiple live-action movies, and insanely high sales—but for some reason, no official English version of the manga. Until now.
With 110 million copies sold, Kingdom is the 15th best-selling manga of all time. That means it has outsold huge hits like Astro Boy, Jujutsu Kaisen, and My Hero Academia. And yet, since its release in 2006, it’s never been officially translated into English.
That changes November 11, 2025, thanks to Viz Media—the same publisher that brought you Naruto, Chainsaw Man, and tons of other fan-favorites.

“Offering readers a thrilling window into one of the most transformative periods in Chinese history, Kingdom is set during China’s Warring States period and follows Xin, a war orphan from the kingdom of Qin, who dreams of becoming a great general and uniting China.”
“After his closest friend, Piao, dies under mysterious circumstances, Xin embarks on a journey to fulfill their shared dream. Along the way, he meets Ying Zheng, a young king bearing a striking resemblance to Piao, who seeks Xin’s help to reclaim his throne and change the course of history.”
