Red River, Vol. 1 by Chie Shinohara
4.25
ARC GIFTED BY VIZ MEDIA FOR THE 3 IN 1 EDITION
Overall rating for first 3 vols: 4.25
I remember when I first heard of Red River. It was the series everyone wanted in their collections but was hard to find and I can finally see what all the fuss was about. This is pretty much like a perfect romantasy series in manga format and is probably one of the OG isekai/time travel mangas. Yuri gets transported to the Hittite Empire in 14th century BC (modern-day Turkey) and has to adapt to new customs, religions, environments, and equipment. The world building that went into this manga was impressive and I'm super excited to see Yuri become this embodiment of a warrior goddess! Idk if we'll see too many deaths as this is a shoujo but I hope there is as I like it when authors put a bit of reality into their stories and ik almost anything could get you killed in 14th century BC.
