There was this German scientist who did some experiment, his sister who he was in love with died and this Japanese soldier who was visiting witnessed the bombing of Dresden. Apparently the German guy essentially gave his life up while the Japanese soldier somehow ended up being the highest authority in Japan.
Meanwhile we have a random aggressive punk become a king in the duration of another flashback where some kid chases him around trying to be his squire. He somehow cares for his men because lo and behold he suddenly has a loli by his side.
Oh and there's this enforcer type of guy who is apparently long time friends/rivals/whatever with the red guy and he's apparently a king too or whatever.
And there's this guy who can steal people's bodies etc. and he's the antagonist or sort of or whatever.
Bla bla. If it works for you, good for you. As far as I am concerned, this is bullshit and a random hodgepodge of ideas thrown into a melting pot.

Actually, I see what you mean.
They really haven't expanded on the idea of the Kings for starters, other than Kuroh's explanation in the third episode.
And furthermore, why are Munakata and Suoh sort of friendly with each other, despite being Kings? How did Ichigen die?
Though, I suspect that we'll get the answers to why the Fox Spirit wants to wreck shit this episode...or at least I hope.
Anyway, it's not the greatest thing ever but I've seen worse. I still love it though, despite its weaknesses.
