Synopsis

Under the guidance of ruthless warrior King Andragoras III, the kingdom of Pars prospers, while the naive and gentle prince Arslan trains to continue his father's legacy. Arslan believes Pars to be a joyous and righteous land, until a captured slave his age from the hostile nation Lusitania escapes and takes him hostage, revealing to Arslan the horrors and cruelty slaves are subject to. Arslan is rescued, but the encounter leaves an impression on him.

Three years pass, and Arslan's first battle against the Lusitanian army has come. Through the Lusitanian use of spies and traps, the battle ends in disaster, and the majority of Parsian troops are slain. With the aid of his loyal friend and bodyguard Daryun, the stricken prince barely manages to escape with his life. With his father nowhere to be found and his homeland now occupied by the enemy, Arslan loses everything in one fell swoop.

Seeking shelter, Daryun takes the prince to his friend Narsus, an eccentric but brilliant strategist. With the help of Narsus and various other people he meets along the way, Arslan begins his campaign to reclaim his kingdom. The path is riddled with many challenges, from the greedy nobility to the mysterious warrior known as Silver Mask. Nonetheless, Arslan refuses to falter in his mission to save Pars from both its enemies and its own corruption.

If searched for a good kingdom or army building this is it.
At first I didn't liked the story because the MC looked weak and wasn't growing but now I think it's all good,i don't think everytime we need a overpowered MC .In this story instead of having a very op MC he has very good subordinates like daryun and Narayana and others.You may not like the arts type but the story gets better as you read,instead of being a very gore fighting manga this manga shows the emotional and personal side of the prince how he was ignored by his parent because of being weak ...

I really love Arslan Senki, since it was my first Anime and also my first Manga. Now that I have reread and caught up with it, I can't wait for the story to continue. This series will always have a special place in my heart, so I might not be competely objective, but I strongly advise you to check it out.

Story
The story is great! The actions of the characters, always feel like they do, what they would do in their situation and it rarely feels like something happens just for the plot. There are some fantasy elements, which I honestly think the series would be ...
