I see a lot of potential with this one...
First off, apparently, the author worked as an assistant for Kohei Horikoshi's My hero academia and we can tell. Its art is expressive and gorgeous. The first chapter has similar plot points from My hero academia, but that's a given, because a lot of stories have the same plot, so it's not ripping it off. What I like from first glance is its setting, a twisted take on the classic tale of " The little red riding hood" where not only werewolves exist, but witches, vampires, dragons and other monsters also exist in this world. Speaking of,

"Listen bro, there is this "Little Red Riding Hood" looking manga where the protagonist is not a crybaby, but independent and mature ass protagonist that wants to become a monster hunter."
If what you just read wasn't enough to convince you then I'm not done. Story: 8 By the first chapter the MC is looking pretty good as character design and "development" so far. He starts like shaky ass dude 'til he becomes freaking Billy the kid with his gun and Kratos with his AXE! (maybe I overexaggerated a bit). Anyway, the story is looking surprisingly interesting and if it keeps getting the same treatment like this ... Nov 14, 2021
This is a very simple review. First ever too. I don't do this often or enough.
This is just a thank you to the author for his work. He strived for a lot and his art showed how much he wanted this to work out. The story could've been better and so could the characters. But oh well. With the time i had with it and it's cast of HIGHLY MUSCULAR FEMALES 😩 ;; i enjoyed my time. So goodbye Sensei. Till your next work. I shall be waiting patiently to see you achieve greatness. And general reasons to read this manga for the short ... Jun 5, 2024
Hunter's Guild: Red Hood is inspired fairy tales, but takes them in a far darker and gruesome direction from the very first chapter. The problem with Red Hood from there isn't that it was boring or bad, it's got more to do with the meat it left on the bone. This manga is dripping with unrealized potential, sporting a familiar art style that felt both fantastical and horrific. It doesn't wow with any storytelling, and that's probably where most of its problems lie.
The good is that, again, the art style is great, and often bordering on amazing. The world is rich in detail, and makes ... Aug 23, 2021
The Hunters Guild: Red Hood by Yuki Kawaguchi serialised in Weekly Shonen Jump is a story brimming with potential as it tackles and excellently incorporates various folk lore in a beautiful Shonen fashion.
Right now the pacing of the manga is perfect, characters are being introduced and developed at a steady and enjoyable rate as well as each chapter being packed with lore and world building. Each chapter your left immersed in the beauty of the world created by Kawaguchi brought to life by his distinct yet familiar art style from his days as an assistant to Kohei Hirokoshi for My Hero Academia. I've been reading since ... Sep 24, 2021
First off, I will start with tl;dr
This review is based on first eleven chapters, but i can tell that this manga has great potential. Why? Art is very good, as well as depicted world. Characters aren't bland, but I think author won't leave them as they are now. Y'know, the whole character development shit. Even if this was short ride for now, I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to new chapters every week. Now, for the ones who like to read. Starting with the story, As for now it's very ordinary, but enjoyable. Worldbuilding in this manga can be great in the future, because author has created ... Dec 5, 2021
SPOILERS BELOW:
Man, what the fuck did I just read. This was all over the place in terms of quality. Lets start with the art: the first chapter looked great. I loved the design of the werewolves and of course was a fan of thick ass Grimm. And then the next chapter happened. Holy hell, the author could NOT handle the rigor of a weekly chapter schedule. I mean, I can't blame them, I don't know how any WSJ mangaka does it, but the immediate drop in art quality was the most noticeable I've ever seen. The final few chapters had almost no backgrounds, like they just ... Aug 29, 2021 This manga World/Background's art is similar to One Piece's and think maybe the creator have idea that every segment and what is on the paper is not random like is in One Piece. The Manga have the ,,MHA'' faces construction maybe because the author work as assistant for Kohei Horikoshi's ,,My hero academia's" creator Its definitely interesting and fun. I think the best about that manga are the main characters, because it get quite interesting whit them. If the quality of the art get better , manga will climb in the ranking. It get some ,,Hunter x Hunter'' vibe from ,,7 chapter'' but ... Dec 31, 2021
Little Red Riding Hood, a fairy tale as old as time, one that every kid knows in and out. And that’s just one of many stories within the ever famous Grimms’ Fairy Tales, also containing famous narratives like Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, and Cinderella among many others. Remixing these tales into a new kind of story is certainly not a brand new idea; movies like Disney’s famous adaptations of some tales or Hoodwinked certainly show that. However, these adaptations are most often just that; adapting the source material in often more child friendly or optimistic ways, or else using them as parody for another kind
