I started reading it when they sold it at BAM...but they since stopped carrying it. I suppose it was because of the mature content. Here is the wikipedia entry for it :

The story line is cliche a bit, but the art is so unique and beautiful. It is a good find for anyone wanting a shoujo manga. There are twenty-eight volumes, I think currently number twenty-seven has just been released. Im not sure though, I haven't been able to purchase any more since vol twenty five. It would make a good anime though, or at least in my opinion. =3

If you liked Red River, I would recommend checking out Fushigi Yugi. The anime is awesome, and they still sell the manga in the stores. There are 18 volumes of the manga. The last two volumes make up the OVA series of the Anime. You will fall in love with all the characters..they grow on you.

@ Lady Luck: Which one Red River or Fusghi Yugi?

I know what you mean! He was... sexy!!! But i dont think he wouldeve been one of the guys who would only stick with one girl, if some one pushed him into it otherwise. Also i dont want this to be a spoiler...so ummm dang

(SPOLIER)
Hes alwasy trying to rape her or something... and as cute as that is in a manga, its not in real life. No one who dosent love you should be forced to do something as that, that why at the end the blond was proved to be more of a man. From backing down from the fight and going back to his actully battle, it proves it more by him not trying to rape her ever.

I love Red River. Prince Kail is so adorable. <3
The story is awesome too. I like story's that make references to Egypt or ancient civilizations. [I'll say this too, I love Yu-Gi-Oh, the first series. Not GX or 5D] I'm such a history geek.

But all my favorite characters keep dying. D: It's rather depressing. But I keep reading more.
I haven't finished it yet. I like owning a manga series to the end. Its just a personal thing, I suppose. So many volumes though. @3@;;;

Is there an anime yet? D:

Loved it <3 I was waiting for the chapters to come out one chapter at a time >.< it was soooo stressing me out, I was like, omg!!! comon!!! where's the next chapter!!!! >.<

oh, and don't forget to read all the extras :D I especially liked the kikkuri's horse training manual thingy XD

BASARA - READ BASARA - if you liked Red River, you'd like Basara :D not the shonen one, the shojo one: Basara - Read Basara online at Manga Volume

omg, omg, omg, Basara's has a wayyy sadder ending though T_T
