🔎 Hello warriors! Welcome to the RED FLOWER! From the minds of series creator Loui comes an epic West-African manga masterpiece! A coming of age story filled with emotions and martial arts. 


Kéli is an impetuous young man who wants to grow up faster than he probably should. 



The return of his long gone brother to the village changes the dynamics within the tribe. 



Frienship will be tested. 

Fights will be inevitable though the local martial art, THE KATAFALI, is mostly defensive. 

New and expected threats will become a reality…




RED FLOWER packs all the ingredients of a modern Shonen classic! Through this campaign, discover the first TWO volumes of the series (out of five). Nearly 500 pages of action and adventure set in a West African village that time forgot… Or did it? 
Could the sudden arrival of a stranger change everything? 

Don't miss a chance to order your copies of the two volumes!!!!
