Ranking of Kings Finally Returns From Its Long Hiatus
Share
One of the most wholesome shōnen manga series, Ranking of Kings, started its journey in 2017 and released 18 volumes until the temporary hiatus that lasted for 21 months until the beginnings of the new 2025 year. The anime elevated its series' popularity, but the journey of Bojji continued through manga that still has a lot to say about its titular character.
Ranking of Kings Creator Released New Chapters After Long Hiatus
One of the most emotional shōnen series, Ranking of Kings, just got its new update on the manga service site, Manga Hack, which posted the 232nd chapter of the hit series. This is the series' first update after a hiatus that lasted 21 months, making fans eager to catch on to the new content of the Ranking of Kings creator, Sōsuke Tōka.
This is huge news for the fans of the content due to anime's realization after 23 episodes and the spinoff The Treasure Chest of Courage from 2023, which recounted the side stories of Prince Boji's adventure. Of course, the anime film adaptation has been green-lit on 22nd June, 2023, but since then we haven't heard any more news about the series' ongoing manga, which still follows the journey of our favorite Prince Boji and his best friend Kage. The creator, Sōsuke Tōka, started uploading new manga chapters, gracing us with numerous chapters since Tuesday.

Plot and Series Overview
Ranking of Kings, also known as Ōsama Ranking, follows the story about young Bojji, a deaf and powerless boy who wants to become the best king in the world. As the first-born son of the king of the Bosse Kingdom, Bojji deals with great pressure due to his responsibilities as an heir but also people's poisonous tongues and doubts that exist nonstop behind the boy's back. Despite the hardships, Bojji wins over the hearts of anyone he meets, even the hardest of them all, a former member of the shadow assassination clan, Kage.
Ranking of Kings focuses mostly on Bojji's point of view, which, through artwork, seems more idealistic and innocent, while other points of view, like the ones from Kage, seem more serious and darker. Nevertheless, Bojji's journey to become stronger and a better ruler of his people strikes an emotional chord among the readers and viewers, making it one of the most emotional series out there.
Conclusion
Ranking of Kings finally continues its journey through its manga series, and it seems that the creator, Sōsuke Tōka, is very eager to follow up on his titular character's story due to his constant updates in recent days. With this news and the ones we heard in 2023 about the anime film, it seems that Prince Bojji will once again occupy our screens and hearts as we watch him become stronger and overcome every obstacle on his way through his kindness and determination.
