Yamazaki Kento x Yoshizawa Ryo and their first encounter with the Kingdom manga

Snippet from Channel Guide April 2019.

The two who are Kingdom manga fans, and their first encounter with the manga.

Kento: People were recommending it to me, saying it’s a really interesting manga.
Ryo: Me too! It was very popular in my hometown, but there were already about 40 volumes released at that time so it was difficult to get started.
Kento: I know right. After that, I received the offer to do the (10th anniversary) live action special movie, and I read everything all at once, up to the latest volume available at that time.
Ryo: It was when I was around 20 years old when I bought and finished reading everything in about 2 days (lol). I’ve probably re-read everything like 5 times now.
Kento: After actually reading it, you find that it’s a super duper interesting story filled with passion. Hara Yasuhisa-sensei, who wrote me a message back then, also came to the filming location this time. He’s a really wonderful person.
