Publication[]

Rose Hip Zero, written and illustrated by Tooru Fujisawa, was serialized in Kodansha's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Magazine from April 20, 2005, to March 15, 2006.[1][2] Kodansha collected its chapters in five tankōbon volumes, released from December 16, 2005, to August 17, 2006.[3][4]

Reception[]

Anime News Network's review of Rose Hip Zero have positive as well, stating that the manga was well done for using the "buddy cop"-style of relationship,[5] similar to the Lethal Weapon series done in the 1990s,[6] though Anime News Network critiques it for having Kasumi use non-lethal bullets in her weapons, which has "no place in a gritty police drama."[5] Teenreads.com has even said that Rose Hip Zero is a fine read especially to those who prefer "shoot-'em-up action movies, police dramas, or even the flying-fists of Jackie Chan."[7]
