Yasuhisa Hara's Kingdom manga continues to drive a live-action film series. The fifth installment, 'Kingdom: Soul's Decisive Battle,' adapts the Coalition War arc, a major storyline from the source material. The film's theatrical run has been substantial, with 2.39 million viewers and 3.73 billion yen in box office revenue within 13 days of release.

The film's promotion has centered on its climactic battle scenes. A new promotional video released in August pairs the theme song 'Yodaka' by Kenshi Yonezu with previously unseen footage from the film, including stills showing the clash between Shin and Bansaku. Earlier, in June, the film announced expanded screening formats, including MX4D, 4DX, Dolby Cinema, SCREENX, and ULTRA 4DX, with MX4D and 4DX versions starting on the July 17 release date and the others following on July 24. A new visual depicting the confrontation between Xin and Bankyoku accompanied that announcement.

Across the two stories, the focus is on the film's box office performance and its presentation across multiple formats. The coverage does not detail Hara's direct involvement in the film production, but the adaptation of his manga remains the core of the project.
