Souten Kouro

Most adaptations of the Romance of Three Kingdoms portray Cao Cao as a power-hungry villain. Souten Kouro is a little different -- he is the hero in this version, and it makes for an interesting take on this ancient tale. The animation is really, really cheap at times but if you're willing to look past that, it's a great show. The other thing that makes this show interesting is that it talks about a few things that most ROTK adaptations skip over or condense -- namely, Cao Cao's childhood, the fall of the Ten Attendants and the Yellow Turban Rebellion. I wouldn't recommend this show as an entry point into ROTK because it is very different from a typical adaptation of the novel -- see John Woo's live-action film Red Cliff and if you like that, give this show a shot.

Good Points: -A pretty strong medieval type anime -One of the few animes about ancient China -Full of battles and wars -Interesting historical characters -I love every time when Lu Bu appears, he is so dynamic and full of rage -Decent animation Bad points: -The ending feels rushed - We dont see the conclusion of the war between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao - Some scenes are CGI and its bad CGI -It has a lot of gore and mature content so If you dont like this kind of stuff be aware All in all this is a pretty good anime to watch If you are into historical animes or if you want an anime similar to Kingdom.

A war anime with death and destruction so that alone I recommend it. It tells more or less how China was formed, it is a historical anime about China but I misunderstood. The only bad thing is that I get complicated with Chinese names, I couldn't learn the names, the only CRACK is CAO CAO. The best character in very good anime a beast like leluch and light. I did not like the design of the beards and mustaches, there are some very very ugly as if they did not grow their beards taking that anime very entertaining with blood and destruction. En español: Un anime bélico con muerte y destrucción así que solo con eso lo recomiendo. Cuenta mas o menos como se formo china, es un anime historico sobre china sino entendí mal. Lo único malo es que se me complica con los nombres chinos tipo no me salia aprenderme los nombres el único CRACK es CAO CAO. El mejor personaje del anime muy bueno una bestia como leluch y light. No me gusto el diseño de las barba y bigotes hay algunos muy muy feo como sino les crecieran la barba sacando eso anime muy entretenido con sangre y destrucción.
