Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us. The red colored pencil in the Prismacolor&reg; Scholar&trade; Manga Set is included for various purposes in manga illustration. Red pencils are commonly used for sketching initial outlines or rough drafts because their lines are easily visible but can be erased or overlaid with darker lines later in the illustration process. Additionally, red pencils can be used for marking areas that need special attention or correction before finalizing the artwork. In manga specifically, red may also be used for indicating specific elements like character blush, certain details, or as a guide for coloring certain parts of the illustration. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Prismacolor&reg; Consumer Care
