Crimson Hero by Takanashi Mitsuba



Synopsis:
Nobara's family wants her to inherit the role of "young mistress," serving rich patrons at her family's old-fashioned Japanese restaurant. No thanks! When Nobara transfers to Crimson Field High School, known for its top-notch volleyball team, it turns out that her mother will stoop to dirty tricks to keep her off the court. With assistance from her feisty Aunt Momoko, who's got some connections at Crimson Field, Nobara decides to start playing offense.

I love, love this manga! It is one of my favorites! I like all the characters in this story and plot is very interesting to me. I like the personality of Nobara.

It`s also one of my favorite mangas too, Yushin & Keisuke are both too cool. & I love how Nobara is her own strong character without being super girly. I don`t normally like all the sports manga too much, but this is definitely an exception

I bought volume 1 and 2 in 2005. It's way better than Devil does exist I"ll tell you that.

I love Crimson Hero so so much! It's a definetly a must read! I'm Yuushin/Nobara all the way!! Nobara rocks!

I have to agree that it is better than Devil Does Exist.

I loved this manga! So good!!

I LOVE THIS MANGA!!!! I'm a volleyball girl and this is the first volleyball manga I have ever heard of.

For new readers, Enchantment scanlations has up to Chapter 25 from Volume 7 scanlated. (Is that a word?)

Whoa, same here! I'm a vball girl too! -peace sign- I read Volume One at some library. LOL. Gotta catch up with the rest. ^^ Thanks for the info!

love it too......
is there anyone who knows where i can get the scanlated manga???since i've only got it until vol 4 chapter 16.....
can't find the sources for the scanlated manga....
anyone help???

^ go to Enchantment Scans page. They are still releasing chapters.

I love this manga too! It gets very addicting to read and it just keeps getting more interesting.

I love this series but Nobara isn't my favourite female character, lol. I don't know -- something about her bugs me. I like the girl that used to be a star setter. I guess one of the reasons I don't really like Nobara is because the guy that the star setter (I totally forgot her name and no one's mentioned her yet so I can't leech knowledge, lol! I haven't read the series in a long time) dated dumped her to chase after her. Ugh. I dunno. But I like the series anyway. Haha. :)

oooh, are you talking about Tomoyo? lol she`s my favorite female character in the manga. & I know what you mean. I feel bad for Keisuke (Haibuki) cause i know that Yushin & Nobara are probably going to end up together in the end. Keisuke's young puppy love with nobara was so cute, i wanted her to choose him. I always end up rooting for the underdogs XP

Nobara is my favorite character. Her personality is completely unlike any of the other mangas I've read so far. I'm so rooting for YUUSHIN + NOBARA!!!!!!! It looks like something might be happening if you read the latest chapter released. I kinda want a new (older) volleyball player guy to come in and shake things up but I don't think that's going to happen.

I like both Yushin and Keisuke so it doesn't matter who she ends up with to me. Although I do like Yushin a bit more. ^^

Hey can i ask you guys where can i download this manga????please im looking for it and i cant find it please.......

OHH. I remember this manga. I just to read it all the time in high school. We had it in the library. I enjoyed it very much. I love the guys in there. =)
Too bad I never got to finish it.

Ahh yes I remember finding the first volume in this isolated corner in our school library and it was BRAND spankin' new cause no one in our school was really a big manga fan! It was really good thoug lol. I like how Nobara's character is spunky and stubborn and all but sometimes her perseverence is a SLIGHT bit of a turn off. I also like how that little chibi character ..hmm dammit forgot her name but it's the one that's really cute and pretty and totally idolizes Nobara was all clingy with her an all lol. Oooo gawd I have horrible memory but I seriously thought that Tomoyo's ex boyfriend who likes Nobara was hawt lol. Even if he is just fictional Gotta find the rest of the series soon! ;O

Keisuke's hot.. yep..


But yea I think Nobara will end up with Yushin. :] And I peeked at some raws.. I subscribe to Shojobeat, so yea I feel up to date with the manga. I know it's a sports manga, but I hope the mangaka will add in some more romance later on.

I wonder how long this series will be...but it's so good!! ^^

Rositas: The only place I know that has this to read online/dl is at Enchantment Scans.

thanks for your help broken.wings

I love this series! It's really long though.

Really? How long is it???

OMGosh. I love love love this manga. haha. I'm like obsessed. I love all the characters, the story, everything.
T-T i'm a wee bit sad that I can't find the latest chapters. I should just go to Japan and buy them and have my friends translate them for me.. T^T too bad I don't have any money.

Ah well, but I do recommend this manga to everyone. It's one of the best I've read.

Yeppp!!! This series is really good!
The manga comes out really slowly
gotta wait months for the next(like all others, i know)
But it's worth the wait! Especially when I have that feeling that the artist
drawings are getting better and she balances romance and volleyball well in this manga :]
Waiting for the next book!

i like this manga but i don't love it
i think it lags at time
but it's a really good manga though

I love how things are playing out.
Hopefully the circumstances won't become repetitive.
The romances ..maybe they'll all find a person?
Who knows ..=x.

Has anybody a link or the raws from the 8.,9. vol. ? I'm going nuts if I won't see them soon... I can't find them anywhere.. Japanese or Chinese it doesn't matter .. if anybody has it: please help me I usually don't act so desperate (ok, maybe when I talk about Goong) but anyway

go here: http://thelurker.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=727 for the RAW!!! No need to thank me, thank the uploaders instead ^^

does anyone know a really good website where i can download crimson hero starting from volume 7. I tried the ones posted, but none seem to work for me.

Dude, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this manga. I don't know exactly why. I first picked it up while reading a Shojo Beat book at the store. Shojo Beat had it right in the middle at the part where Nobara had confesses she liked Yuushin. HAHA. I totally couldn't stop there. So I read it, and I love the way it makes me feel. It makes me feel like I'm in Junior High again. We loved these books back in middle school, man. T__T

Anyways, I love the plot. I never thought reading about Volleyball would be so... drama-induced? HAHA. Nobara is to love because she works so hard, and she's her own person. She moved out of her parents house to pursue her dream, and nothing's going to stand in her way. Powerful, yes! I love Yushin just because he's so freaking dumb. HAHA. He and Nobara are made for each other. HAHA. But I can't leave Keisuke all by himself. T__T *CRIES CRIES* It's just so sad that he liked her for so long, and yet, she doesn't want to be with him. T__T He' the nice afterall, freaking A!!!! T______________T Sighs, I just feel so bad for him, that's all. HAHA.

All in all, definitely one of my favorite mangas. Does anyone know when chapter 30 is coming out?

this is definitely one of my favorites
im so thankful for this forum haha

littostar: just read the series at onemanga.com

they've got everything!!

This story is so addicting. It never gets boring for me. I really like all the characters in this manga.
