Crimson Hero takes volleyball and bents it like Beckham in a story that pits traditional values against the love of the game. All that matters to 15 year old Nobara Sumiyoshi is volleyball; she is an awesome volleyball player with big time ambitions. But sometimes it seems like a girl just can not get a break in the competitive world of high school volleyball.

About the Author
At age 17, Mitsuba Takanashi debuted her first short story Mou Koi Nante Shinai (Never Fall in Love Again) in 1992 in Bessatsu Margaret magazine and now has several major titles under her belt.
Born in the Shimane Prefecture of Japan, Mitsuba Takanashi now lives in Tokyo, where she enjoys taking walks, watching videos, shopping, and going to the hair salon. Her penchant for all things fashionable can be seen in her characters hip, unconventional outfits, as well as their crazy hairstyles (note the 'do on Crimson Hero star Nobara!). Takanashi has a soft spot for the Japanese pop acts Yellow Monkey and Hide, and is good at playing ping pong.

Go go volleyball!,
By Ryn (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crimson Hero, Vol. 4 (Paperback)
I had never gotten into any sports manga, my ONLY exception is Crimson Hero. It's hard to not get pumped up about the small team and hoping that they will do great in whatever they do. And the characters are realistic. They don't always win, unlike some other series.
In book 4: Nobara and Yushin. Trying to figure out some feelings...
5.0 out of 5 stars
