My Thoughts:
The saturated red illustrations are fabulous and fitting to the theme. Also, although this is labeled as volume 1, it gives a good amount of story in this volume. Similar to Demonslayer, Scarlet, despite her bargain with Satan, is not all bad. In the high school classroom, use these popular manga to talk about complex ethical decisions that create characters that are complicated. Use this for sociology class too. It will be a great way to link to studentsʻ interest before going into something like Frankenstein.
From the Publisher:
When Scarlet finds herself doomed to eternal punishment in Hell for a sinful life she can’t even remember, Satan himself offers her a deal: return to earth and kill one marked sinner per day…as his grim reaper!
Using the power of Hell, Scarlet quickly learns the ropes of being a reaper: bring in one sinner per day, regardless of their sins, and avoid the ninth circle herself. This work brings her into the path of Chase, a disgraced former detective trying to solve a high-level case that seems wrapped up in Scarlet’s former life. Scarlet decides to partner with Chase to find the answers to her locked memories—as long as Chase doesn’t discover Scarlet’s bloodstained bargain with Satan first.
This volume collects episodes 1–16 of the popular WEBTOON, exclusive never-before-seen content, and a bonus short story!
