The original Kingdom manga is serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump seinen manga magazine. Crunchyroll currently streams the Kingdom TV anime and describes the story of the series as follows:

 

A nameless boy and a young king have grown up in a nation plagued by war. The boy, Xin, has countlessly proven himself on the battlefield, and although initially starting on bad terms, he and the young king, Zheng, have become comrades. Zheng wishes to bring all the warring states under Qin, while Xin climbs the ranks to become a Great General. Both of their ambitions will change history forever.
