This manga was。。。 alright。 I wanted to like it because it’s a horror/fantasy/yuri, but it was just decent at best。 The art’s well done, but the plot just didn’t flow that well。 It made sense, but it’s got some holes。

At a certain point in Iris and Finé’s life, a traumatic moment occurred where the following happened:- Finé, Red Riding Hood look and all, is actually a werewolf, and Iris sees her devouring her prey。- A group out to kill wolves almost ends Finé’s life, but Iris, who desperately wants to save her, grabs a mysterious drug and consumes it。 This transforms her into a bloodsucker and she proceeds to eat everyone in the room…- …But comes to her senses after drinking Finé’s blood。 From there, she want At a certain point in Iris and Finé’s life, a traumatic moment occurred where the following happened:- Finé, Red Riding Hood look and all, is actually a werewolf, and Iris sees her devouring her prey。- A group out to kill wolves almost ends Finé’s life, but Iris, who desperately wants to save her, grabs a mysterious drug and consumes it。 This transforms her into a bloodsucker and she proceeds to eat everyone in the room…- …But comes to her senses after drinking Finé’s blood。 From there, she wants her to do what she intended and devour her (being a monster doesn’t suit Iris), but Finé wanted to eat her when she was a human。So their current solution is to see if a cure exists for the drug, which sets the stage for what happens now。 As it stands, these two appear to be lovers on the outside, but instead they are bound by a contract they each set personally — Iris can drink Finé’s blood in order to stay sane, and when they find that cure, Finé can devour her。 And in joining the organization L。E。A, a group looking to stop the production of these drugs, they hope they’ll find it soon enough。Scarlet is the manga that of course would have such a killer cliffhanger that I can’t help but know what happens next, but like 2/3 of the read is just not well paced。 It’s going for a unique combination — yuri + horror — but for the most part they clash with each other。 Like we can see these ladies and other characters appear and act all cute or flustered or pout like normal manga style, and then it awkwardly flips to bringing murder and necks getting ripped apart。That’s why I couldn’t help but chuckle when the creator said in the afterword about this type of manga not being what Comic Yuri Hime normally publishes。 That came across in this first volume! This type of premise can work, but the art just makes most of what happens — action scenes or character interactions — feel awkward。However, finding out what these characters actually do and how volume 1 ends is a motivating factor in continuing it。 Yes, they’re all archetypes, and some annoyed me more than others, and there is the age-gap element because fantasy creatures live a long time (it’s noted that Finé is around 100 years old, Iris is 19), but the story is set up where they have to overcome a bad ending。 After all, Finé was supposed to eat Iris。 But despite that, their past connection and their current situation is intriguing。 So what happens if they find a cure after all? And of course, the yuri is noticeable either when they’re at a bar or just at weird moments。 That of course includes when a couple of ladies in lingerie transform into werewolves and start eating humans at a party。But for the most part, and aside from the one really cool moment where Finé made one poor guy serve copious amounts of drinks due to him cheating in a game, Scarlet was just baffling to read until the end, when a new threat emerges。 As it is only 2 volumes, it’ll be at least worth checking out to see how this will all go, but I can only hope this ends tidily enough。- Justin 。。。more

2020 Read #636This was fun! I haven’t read a fantasy-flavored yuri story like this before, and I liked the vibes and atmosphere that reminded me of series like D。Gray-man and Vampire Knight。 I’m interested in seeing where this goes next!

Interesting premise and art is very nice。 Does end in a cliffhanger but worth reading。 Characters are not simple cliches and show room to grow。

20/8/20Wasn't expecting this to be a horror yuri, but I'm certainly not mad at that! This is only the first volume and not all that much happened (there was quite a bit of reference to the past), but I can for sure see potential in both the characters and plot :)You can find me onYoutube | Instagram | Twitter | Tumblr | Website | The Storygraph 20/8/20Wasn't expecting this to be a horror yuri, but I'm certainly not mad at that!

I loved this manga way more than I expected to! Great blend of humor, horror, and sex appeal with a fantastic plot。In some European-esque bygone era, a young girl falls in love with a century-old werewolf。 But the werewolf only sees her as a child。。。until their village discovers her supernatural secret, and the young girl becomes her savior by consuming an elixir that morphs her, too, into a werewolf。The elixir itself is central to the manga's plot。 The heroines, Iris and Finé, seek out dealers I loved this manga way more than I expected to! Great blend of humor, horror, and sex appeal with a fantastic plot。In some European-esque bygone era, a young girl falls in love with a century-old werewolf。 But the werewolf only sees her as a child。。。until their village discovers her supernatural secret, and the young girl becomes her savior by consuming an elixir that morphs her, too, into a werewolf。The elixir itself is central to the manga's plot。 The heroines, Iris and Finé, seek out dealers who are pushing the elixir onto humans who mistake it for a cure-all in some cases, and in other instances it is used as a party drug。 Finé, although both in love with a werewolf and a werewolf herself, is a werewolf slayer。 She works for a hunter organization called L。E。A。, but the book never explains what that acronym stands for。 They are the "national drug control force," so maybe the acronym is taken from the Japanese, but then I'm not sure why they wouldn't "translate" that to N。D。C。F。。。。?Although Iris is not a hunter herself, she tags along with Finé on her missions and lends her the use of her more experienced wolf's eyesight, giving Finé added strength, speed, and skill in combat。 (I couldn't help but think of it as the shinigami eyes from "DeathNote。") The women have a pact: Iris won't leave Finé's side until they find a cure for her affliction, but then Finé will allow Iris to devour her as she's always longed to do。There's a nice cast of supporting characters in the manga。 There's a tavern owner and her little sister, who are integral to the overall plot development, and then Finé's boss, Moira Hopkins, who has a crush on Finé that is obvious to everyone but Finé herself。 There's a gambler I found especially amusing, and Moira has a boss of her own who is crushing on her。 Love triangles everywhere! 。。。Or is it a square, now?There is one character that people might find a bit creepy。 There is an apparent child who is having a drug-fueled orgy with grown women。 The "child" is actually a succubus, but she's drawn to look like a ten-year old。 I guess it makes it a little better that she's not human and probably centuries old, but I'm not sure why the artist chose to draw her looking so young while engaged in adult activities。。。 She emerges as the villain of the story, though, so I expect her to hang around for a while, if not till the end。There's a nice blend of seriousness and humor in the story。 One minute Iris may be quite sincerely threatening to harvest a guy's organs, but the next she's flaunting her relationship with Finé in front of third-wheel Moira。 (She's not an annoying third wheel, at least; Moira is adorable and you can't help but feel bad for her because Finé is totally oblivious and totally into someone else。 You have to sympathize, knowing she's doomed to disappointment。)I thought this manga was beautifully drawn from start to finish。 The plot has me hooked and I am absolutely in love with at least three characters。 Maybe four。 Or five。 I'll definitely be continuing this series。 。。。more

Really liked the artwork/art style, but the characters were pretty boring and the story wasn't that engaging。 A good read for someone who wants a dark, edgy romance featuring mythical creatures and magic, but not something I would recommend to those who are familiar with and enjoy stories like this。 If I were to give a better recommendation, both The Ancient Magus's Bride and In/Spectre are good choices。 Really liked the artwork/art style, but the characters were pretty boring and the story wasn't that engaging。 A good read for someone who wants a dark, edgy romance featuring mythical creatures and magic, but not something I would recommend to those who are familiar with and enjoy stories like this。 If I were to give a better recommendation, both The Ancient Magus's Bride and In/Spectre are good choices。 。。。more

Well, you can guess exactly how this one leans from the cover。 If Citrus and Le Chevalier d’Eon had a baby, it would be this manga。 It’s a weird medieval horror story that’s basically got blood sucking standing in for the other stuff you’d expect from lesbian romance。This has one toe in the Red Riding Hood story and the rest of it is a little nonsensical (I’m glad to see that fantasy drug dealers also carry around attaché cases so they can be easily identified)。 Our main pair have an interesting Well, you can guess exactly how this one leans from the cover。 If Citrus and Le Chevalier d’Eon had a baby, it would be this manga。 It’s a weird medieval horror story that’s basically got blood sucking standing in for the other stuff you’d expect from lesbian romance。This has one toe in the Red Riding Hood story and the rest of it is a little nonsensical (I’m glad to see that fantasy drug dealers also carry around attaché cases so they can be easily identified)。 Our main pair have an interesting dynamic, but everybody else seems to sort of show up and pop off with reckless abandon (this really reminded me of Chevalier, which itself was more disjointed than an explosion at a skeleton factory)。I did like the twist that lead to the climax of the book - the lore is still kind of all over the place, but seeing what was a presumably reasonable request at the time turn into a huge problem was a nice touch。This isn’t great stuff, but I’ve read worse。 It’s just aggressively mediocre with some nice touches (and good fight scenes)。 I’ll give it another volume just because it IS certainly different within its genre。 。。。more
