Mukai is a court lady who supports the King of Qin, Eisei, played by Ryo Yoshizawa. Although she has a meek and timid personality, she is a pure woman who continues to admire Umasa single-mindedly, and is one of the few people that Umasa allows. Similarly, Hiroshi, a shrine maiden, is bright and strong-willed, and supports Mukai as a friend when he is at the mercy of a shaky situation.
Kingdom is a story that depicts the battle between the main character, Shin, who dreams of becoming a great general of the world, and the young king, Yingzheng, who aims to unify China. The fifth installment of the live-action series, ``Battle of the Souls,'' depicts the ``Joint Forces Arc,'' where a major battle between Qin and the Six Kingdoms unfolds.
