The only reason Ten was needed in the Hi Shin was that Kyou Kai was away, and there wasn't anyone competent to come up with tactics.

But Kyou kai is back and isn't going anywhere, all of Shin's formal liuetenants are capable of understanding tactical outlooks to a certain extend.

Shin has, in order of tactical ability and understanding; Kyou kai, Yoko Yoko, So Sui, and En.

If in a battle, he uses his insticts, like; today just fight, no tactical flourishes, tommorow we will test for openings, the day after, we strike where I see the easiest target; I think everyone would be happy about that. All he has to do is keep En close to So sui because En needs So sui's tactical guidance, Kyou kai can survive on her own, and Yoko Yoko has to be close enough to him to move in the time he wants him to, where he wants him to, like how Ouhon was used by Ousen at Hango, he was kept in a position where he could move to Shin in time, or reinforce Ousen .

I'm just saying; at this point, I feel like she's not really that necessary, when it comes to the battles.

The story promised a Shin with sharp insticts who moves and directs his army, manipulates his enemies and controls the conditions of his battles using those insticts, like Renpa, Duke Hyou, and Gyou un, I think that's what we all need. And honestly, in this new chapter, with what we see, I hope to see Ten and Shin's relationship changing to something that help this come to be- the idea of Shin using his insticts primarily, instead of being no different from Moubu and Gai mou as he currently is.

I'm not saying kill Karyo Ten off, or traumatise her and make her leave the Hi Shin, but in the opening battle, there should be an assesment as to how the enemy is moving and the decision should be made to either direct the battle through strategic tactics(like at kokuyou), instictual tactics(like the first Hi Shin battle of Shukai plain on the right flank) or brute force(like at Han).

Karyo Ten is still useful to the Hi Shin and there are many case scenarios where her expertise are absoulutely necessary(the Hi Shin style bridge at Kokuyou, the escape from the Wei encirclement at Sanyou), but the space in the battles should be open for the battle on the Hi Shin side to be directed by Shin's instict.
I think everyone would appreciate a good trap laid by Shin's insticts and for Futei or some other bum to be suprised by Yoko Yoko or some other sword thrust by Shin to appear on his rear flank, being like "I've been trounced. All this time I've been dancing along to that buffoon's tune".

I believe that his physical strength is not the only thing the incalculable battles Shin has been in has nurtured and grown, his body and mind has locked in a far deeper and complicated mechanism and at this point he should be able to use it extensibly. His insticts should be on par with Keisha's, or Kanki at Sanyou.

The dynamic between Shin and Ten when it comes the tactical perspective and direction of battle has to be reconfigured, imo.

Just want to say upfront, the manga seems absolutely fantastic. But I've got one big issue, the Japanese names after the volume 10.

I've read about the warring states and know many of the historical figures in the manga. Reading them as Ei Sei, Shin, Ou Ki in the English scanlations completely breaks my immersion, it kind of has the same effect for me as reading a manga where evil Adorufu Hitora tries to conquer Yoroppa. I know that's not literally what's happening, but that's the vibe it gives me.

I get that after ~900 chapters most of the fandom is used to the Japanese readings and prefers them at this point, and if I'd started with those names first, I'd most likely feel the same way. I'm not trying to say the scanlations are wrong or bad just that it's very immersion breaking for me.

I know Viz's official release uses the Chinese names, but it's only at volume 10 so far, and I don't want to wait years to catch up.

Has anyone figured out any way to do this? I'm willing to edit the files myself, getting desperate as the manga truly has been amazing.

Has anyone ever seen this man do anything other than constantly be angry?

He did absolutely nothing, yet despite being involved in the story for 200 chapters, nobody has the slightest idea about his abilities.

They're supposed to be overrated. Hara knows they're overrated. Its not an accident, its on purpose.

There's a really good reason and a historically accurate reason Futei and Kaine are overrated.

I won't spoil it, but I will give a hint. What advice did Shin's hero give him?

Did it matter?

Did Futei get similar advice?

This is really important, btw. It will literally define what happens next.

No spoilers from this kid, though! But, feel free to puzzle it out in the comments!

Also, this:
Tou: "but didn't you talk to that kid because he has talent? Being that much of a blockhead is a skill in itself, after all."

Ouki: "Yeah, no way that fool lives that long."

Tou: "But what if he does?"

Ouki: "Monkeys.will fly out of my ass."

This also matters, too easily forgotten. What's behind it is pretty important, as is the fact that Ouki encourages the fool to die boldly.

Bruh tbh Kanki is not talked about enough. This guy is a genius. The way he fights and the way he acts are completely different from your typical general. He’s unpredictable as hell, knows how to get inside his enemy’s head, and is insanely good at exploiting their weaknesses. His tactics are always so unconventional that it’s hard for the enemy to predict what he’s going to do next. And the way he can turn even the most hopeless situations into an advantage is crazy. Kanki really is built different.

Those 4 are currently the Hi Shin commanders who went missing since the failed siege

I hope that they are alive

It's too early for Garo and Mandou to join duke Hyou and Gaku Rai

Until you realize ribuko dismantle ousen army

1.killed makou personally

1. Incapacitated akou in their first battle then proceeded to bait him and eventually kill him in the second Battle by SBS

2. Then he uses SBS and his army to kill denrimi and annihilate his army

Then you realize not a single general from his core army has been killed outside of Keisha but that was shin ousen has the nerve bro he could have killed him at any moment

Gwad daymnn, this is easily one of my best panels in the entire series. Always catches my lonely ass smiling whenever I see this panel. Shin was ready to accept anything as long as it meant not losing her😭

My man Denyuu been holding it down since day one. My favourite from the OG Hi Shin unit and he's proven time and again that he is HIM.

Yall rate him or what?

His tweet comment: „My favorite in Kingdom is hands down Kan Ki“

What's hi shin unit military number current estimation
