Is Zhuge Liang really that fucking good of a strategist? This show surely depicts him as that

I'm not sure camping in the snow until both your own and the enemy armies are on the brink of death, and then shooting the enemy in the dark counts as a particularly great strategy.

Based Three Kingdoms 2010 patrician

Napoleon is better

nope, but three kingdoms is one of four stories that all anime and nip culture as you know it is basically based on. Their entire library of written works, and I'd say it's second in importance after journey to the west.

It does tell make believe tale about historical morons of their time showcasing them as quite swell people.

yeah he's a cool Sonic character

it's an anime about a Chinese strategist revived in modern times Japan to help out a idol.

the main reason why he was depicted as "greatest mastermind of shu han" is because he was the only one in charge during the early regence of the 2nd Liu emperor, and basically no one else left written records of the dealings of the court that would survive over time.
so, if we listen to the arguments of Zhuge Liang, he was the greatest military mastermind of his era who almost 9? times succeeded in his northern expeditions but it was so damn close until some reason ruined his brilliant plans. basically also bankrupting the economic base of the Shu Han state and bleeding its manpower dry over time.
the man probably was competent to some extent, since he basically became "sole ruler" aka prime minister in charge of a braindamaged baby emperor for whom he was the regent. and neither did the state collapse, but was able to keep pressure against the much more popolous Wei while also ensuring Wu would not be able to advance either.

also later historians further blow things out of proportion and historical records turn into folk talkes and then further into legends/divine entities because how amazing they were at murdering barely armed starving hostile faction peasant levies

This is the resume of his northen campaings.

That bitch never succeeded with his northern expeditions, in fact one could argue that Sima Yi defeated that bitch by outlasting him

how do you even pronounce zhuge liang.

Zhuge Liang
>weak body, shut-in, manipulated propaganda so he and the one he served would appear as heroes and the good guys in the annals of history

There is a reason why it's called the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Zhuge Liang was brilliant but he wasn't a saint. And many of the people depicted in the records aren't what they were described to be. Especially Cao Cao, Sima Yi, Gan Yu and Ma Chao.

What's better about this one?

he's not perfect, but this is him in an era of peace so things like intense stress of war won't cloud his judgement so I guess it makes him look very good

Kek

More like Chao or Tsao desu

Zhu ge is accurate enough desu

What's zh pronounced like?

It's close to the "j" sound in English, but the tongue position is a bit further back

He was really good at propagandizing his own image.

What was that 3 kingdoms anime that was pretty based on it but everyone was big boobed ladies again?

Which one are you talking about?

No, and the word "strategist" misrepresents his actual role. He was himself the de facto head of state. He was the boss, not the "strategist" advising the boss.

Oh good there more than one?
Wait my brain just unfarted
Was one ikkitousen?

Yes

Everything in nippon land is based on:
Genji
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
or sengoku period
There is nothing else, unless someone decides to steal the aesthetics of some random fuck nordic myth because nips are obsessed with scandanavian mythos.

>Get their asses beaten even worse
>This somehow was considered a victory since Zhang He died during pursuit despite losing most of their army
This is a lie. While Zhuge Lian did suffer humiliating defeats in his first and second campaigns against Cao Zhen (especially the second where Cao Zhen's officer Hao Zhao held Chencang against overwhelming forces), he won the third campaign against Guo Huai and soundly defeated Sima Yi in the fourth campaign (the one where Zhang He was killed by Sima Yi's incompetence/malevolence).

Ironically a lot of the posthumous bolstering of Zhuge Liang was due to the need to make Sima Yi look not as pathetic for doing worse against Zhuge Liang than Cao Zhen, despite Cao Zhen's reputation getting posthumously smeared to hell.

I don't get why they keep making games based on this story over and over again like it's fifa.
