About Red River

Here is what Red River (Sora wa Akai Kawa no Hotori) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, adventure and supernatural anime by Tatsunoko Production (2026). The setup: Yuri, a pretty Japanese girl, is ecstatic after passing her college entrance exam and having her first kiss with her childhood ally-turned boyfriend. However, her luck soon changes.

As things develop, she starts to notice that water turns into agitated whenever she goes near it. One night, hands appear out of a puddle on the street and drag her into the water! Transported to an ancient village in the Middle East, she is then captured by armed troops and taken to the Queen's palace for a human sacrifice.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. Follow the episode list on this page to keep up with the latest release.
