The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (レッドフード, Reddo Fūdo) is a manga by former Kōhei Horikoshi assistant Yuki Kawaguchi that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from June to November 2021.Velou is an idealistic young boy living in Kasoka Village, a small hamlet with frequent werewolf attacks. It's gotten so bad that the mayor decided to hire a hunter from the Hunters Guild, an agency that specializes in hunting monsters of all kinds. The hunter who arrives, Grimm, doesn't seem like much, but proves to be very good at what she does. After assisting her in killing the werewolf, Velou is offered the chance to join the Hunters Guild himself, and help them bring about a day when werewolves are nothing but myth.Red Hood is Yuki Kawaguchi's first series in Weekly Shonen Jump, and is based on a one-shot which won the 14th Gold Future Cup rookie manga competition. Chapters are officially released in English the same day they are published in Japan, on Manga Plus (website and app) and Viz Media (website and Shonen Jump app).The series was canceled in November 2021 due to low readership, ending at 18 chapters. | |

Diabolus ex Nihilo | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_13a499b8 | comment |
Diabolus ex Nihilo: Cinderella and Lycaon suddenly show up at the end of the fourth chapter and attack Kasoka Village. Chapter 8 revealed they intentionally Invoked this to achieve the Doomed Hometown portion of Velou's tale necessary to galvanise him to join the hunter's guild, as whatever changes Horlock made to their plans by including Dodou and the rest in the tale ended up leaving all 3 werewolves dead and nobody else from the village harmed, saved the Mayor, who had faked his death at that point, thus Velou had no reason to start his journey. Monsters have a tendency to just show up out of the blue. So far, Chapter 6 had the Giant Enemy Crab, and Chapter 8 has a giant manta ray. | |

Adaptational Villainy: As seems to be increasingly common in modern media, Cinderella gets this treatment, here portrayed as an evil witch. However, in the last few chapters, she ends up joining forces with the Hunters Guild out of necessity to stop Horlock/Geppetto. She still promises to fight Grimm again afterward, though. Geppetto becomes the overarching antagonist of the series, having created Velou as part of a convoluted plan to destroy the entire world. | |

Fairytale Motifs: The series is based on Little Red Riding Hood as the title and main antagonists being (were)wolves makes clear. Had the manga not been forced to end early, it's fair to assume that other fairy tales and works of The Brothers Grimm would have been brought in, what with a protagonist named Grimm, a person named Red Hood who founded the Hunters Guild, and a witch named Cinderella in it. | |

| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_4a852053 | comment |
The Hero's Journey: Chapter 8 reveals that This is apparently being invoked by Mayor Horlock in conjunction with Lycaon and Cinderella, in order to achieve a shared goal that apparently requires Velou to join the hunter's guild. They even use terms like 'editing the script' 'adjusting the story for coherence' and 'wasting precious page space' to refer to Horlock's actions in modifying Velou's origin story to include Dodou and the other werewolves, which was apparently not the plan they had before hand, and Cinderella outright asks Horlock what he's trying to do with Velou's 'story' outright implying that they're intentionally manipulating Velou into becoming a standard fairytale fantasy hero for their own ends. | |

Bait-and-Switch: In chapter 4, when Lycaon and Cinderella first arrive in his hamlet, Velou narrates that he could never forget that day, when so many lives were lost and everything he knew was reduced to ash. It sounds like the two of them are going to massacre the entire village save Velou, but in chapter 5 Velou and Grimm are able to evacuate all the villagers away from the hamlet, which is instead burned down to the ground by Cinderella's flames on Lycaon's request to make a fitting funeral pyre for his sons. However, with no homes and no way of sustaining themselves, the villagers are forced to leave to find new livelihoods elsewhere effectively killing the village without any loss of life. Grim does comment that some villagers are missing in the chaos, but it's left unconfirmed if they died or wandered off elsewhere to seek shelter. | |

Refusal of the Call: Velou initially refuses to go with Grimm to join the Hunters Guild because he wants to stay and protect the hamlet and he doesn't believe the Hunters Guild's plan to exterminate all the werewolves is even possible. Chapter 8 reveals that Cinderella and Lycaon's subsequent attack was specifically to motivate Velou to accept the call, destroying the Hamlet to give Velou no choice but to accept Grimm's offer. | |

| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_8aa0f76 | comment |
Deconstructed Trope: Silver as a werewolves' weakness. Silver does indeed have a use against werewolves like the usual legends say as it prevents them from regenerating, but as the actual precious metal isn't very dense, it isn't a very effective weapon against werewolves' hide and flesh (which are much tougher than humans, hence why they're a threat). Thus, Hunters instead use the heavier wolfonium in their anti-werewolf weapons. | |

| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: As early as chapters 7-8, but yes. Not only is it revealed Mayor Horlock is alive, but he's revealed to be in cahoots with Lycaon and Cinderella, in order to achieve the goal of the Red List, which he has in common with them, and everything that happened during the earlier chapters was all done intentionally to invoke The Hero's Journey on Velou, with their plans apparently necessitating he begin his story as a Trainee hunter. Furthermore, their dialogue during the scene gives shades of a Fourth-Wall Observer, with them making references to stories, page space, characters getting rearranged and such, in such a way that hints that they're aware that they're part of a fairy tale, and are attempting to intentionally craft a narrative around Velou for their own ends. | |

Tragic Keepsake | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_97d54bb0 | comment |
Tragic Keepsake: Mayor Horlock's weapon was a small hatchet that he used to chop wood and apparently kill the werewolf that ate Velou's parents. He would often let Velou use it to help him chop wood blocks for the village, and when grimm is swallowed by the Granny werewolf, Velou seizes the Axe after blasting her through the roof of her mouth as a distraction and splits her stomach open chest to groin in a single blow to pull Grimm free, taking it as his own weapon going forward. | |

Friendly Fireproof | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_9e8aa11e | comment |
Friendly Fireproof: Averted. Debonair put herself through Training from Hell to master her curse and use it as a weapon, but part of the reason she's the conductor of the Ironworks is that it's only in wide-open spaces away from people that she can display her full power, like the sea, otherwise she risks roasting those around her. The exam-takers actually use this against her, mobbing her with their larger numbers in tight spaces because if Debonair actually tried to fight back against them seriously, she'd likely kill them by accident, forcing her to flee or hold back to avoid killing them and giving them an opportunity to steal the handcuffs she's using to arrest them. | |

Healing Factor | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_a5fb0d24 | comment |
Healing Factor: Werewolves are able to regenerate from their wounds, which means ordinary weapons can't kill them. Dodou even uses this to his advantage, pointing out how muscles fibres grow back stronger once they're broken and damaged, shredding himself with his claws and letting his own healing factor regrow the muscles back twice as strong to turn himself into a super-buff version of his normal form. He notes the only downside is that it makes him incredibly hungry from the energy drain needed to power his healing abilities. | |

Stupid Evil | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_affd30b0 | comment |
Stupid Evil: Rather than just attack and eat the hunters when he has the chance, Dodou decides to exposit about werewolves' regenerative abilities, and demonstrate exactly how to kill one by ripping Naraoia's heart out. Because of this, the hunters are able to escape, and they now outnumber him 2:1 when they go after him again. | |

| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_bd32bff | comment |
Hungry Menace: Werewolves have to eat humans to survive. When Velou denies the possibility that one of the villagers is werewolf because everyone in the village is a good person Grimm points out that morality has nothing to do with how werewolves operate, if they don't eat humans they'll die. | |

Cinderella and Lycaon suddenly show up at the end of the fourth chapter and attack Kasoka Village. Chapter 8 revealed they intentionally Invoked this to achieve the Doomed Hometown portion of Velou's tale necessary to galvanise him to join the hunter's guild, as whatever changes Horlock made to their plans by including Dodou and the rest in the tale ended up leaving all 3 werewolves dead and nobody else from the village harmed, saved the Mayor, who had faked his death at that point, thus Velou had no reason to start his journey. | |

Training from Hell: The three month training camp to become a Hunter is extremely intense. As Tylty and Mylty noted, as many as 200 can enter, but only a few pass. Even the two of them couldn't make it and it's established that they're already highly skilled. | |

| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_d6d26e96 | comment |
Just a Kid: Despite Velou best effort to protect and support his village the rest of the village views him as a naive child and doesn't take him seriously. Ironically, it's Grimm, the harden hunter, who sees potential in him and is adamant that he join the hunter guild. The rest of the villages comes around once they see him take on and defeat a werewolf. | |

Red Herring | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: The first chapter tries to set up the mayor as the werewolf that's been attacking people. It's actually the old grandma. Then it turns out she wasn't the one that attacked and killed the mayor, because her werewolf form was toothless, and there were teeth marks on the bones left behind once they were done with the mayor's body, so there's actually more than one werewolf attacking the hamlet. Then it turns out that the mayor isn't even dead, and may have been orchestrating the attacks on the hamlet to galvanise Velou to go on a hero's journey from the shadows. | |

Didn't See That Coming: Dodou's plan in the second chapter was to slip in among the humans while Naraoia acted as a diversion. He didn't count on Velou knowing everyone in the hamlet, and thus being able to realize that he wasn't from around there. | |

The Hero | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_e49686 | comment |
The Hero: Velou, as a young, naive but idealistic youth starting his life as a trainee hunter. However, it's deconstructed, as it's revealed that Velou is intentionally being made into this, being secretly trained to make his body combat capable without him knowing, being left a Tragic Keepsake of his father figure that's secretly made of the monster's Achilies Heel as his Signature Weapon, and with Grimm being summoned to the village right as it's under attack from multiple werewolves, and eventually Lycaon and Cinderella who raze the village to the ground, leaving Velou Homeless and with his father figure apparently dead as the only casualty of the attack— except That's a lie. Thus motivated by anger against the Red List, Velou decides to join the hunter's guild—which is exactly what Horlock, Lycaon and Cinderella wanted all along, to craft the story's narrative around him. For her part, Grimm can tell something's up with all the suspicious Contrived Coincidence occurring around Velou since her arrival, and takes him along with her mainly because she wants to find out the truth about him and what was going on with his hamlet. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Bonkers, one of Velou's teammates in the hunter trainee exam, has this as his Dark and Troubled Past. He came from a rich family in a town that happened to be devastated by a giant, destroying half the place before being driven back by hunters. His family used their large house to provide shelter for the homeless, with Bonkers giving up his own room to two strangers when there was almost no room left. However, that night, Bonkers discovered the strangers were really thieves who were planning to rob them, and attempted to kill Bonkers himself when he confronted them. In self-defence, Bonkers hit his attacker with the lamp he was holding, setting both their clothes ablaze. In agony, the thief jumped out the window into the pouring rainstorm and died from the fall, where he was found by the rest of the villagers. The surviving thief blamed Bonkers for attempted murder on himself, with the civilians finding a gold watch on the dead thief and thinking that Bonkers had set him on fire and pushed him out the window for stealing a petty trinket. His throat too damaged from the heat of the flames to properly speak and defend himself, Bonker had no choice but to flee from home from the angry mob, taking odd jobs wherever he could to get food and shelter for a night thereafter. | |

Our Werewolves Are Different: They're ravenous, cannibalistic monsters, bringing them closer to wendigos than traditional werewolves. They also possess a healing factor that makes them difficult to kill. They also tend to be really freaky looking. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: The Ironworks is a giant box-shaped building sitting on top of a train car. The building is supported entirely by beams, and there's even a gap in between the building and the car. Somehow, it doesn't collapse under its own weight, it doesn't capsize when it makes a turn, and the giant box doesn't appear to have any aerodynamic issues. In Chapter 8, the Ironworks is briefly shown crossing a high railway bridge without any problems. | |

Talking Is a Free Action | |
| The Hunters Guild: Red Hood (Manga) / int_ff5a74c8 | comment |
Talking Is a Free Action: In the middle of a fight with a werewolf, Grimm and Velou discussed a plan of how to defeat it in which they exchanged well over 240 words. What makes it even more ridiculous is that the werewolf has Super-Hearing, yet didn't hear any of this. It could be slightly justified in that Doudou implies that he needs to focus to use his hearing to its full potential, and he was too distracted by the smoke fouling up his eyes and nose to listen properly until he'd calmed down a little from losing sight of his prey along with some of his senses. This is the same reason why Velou was able to sneak into the house beneath him to fill it up with gas long enough to blast him with— just because he has super-hearing, doesn't mean that he's using it all the time, especially if his focus isn't on listening. | |
