Fire Tripper (炎トリッパー, Honoo Torippā, literally meaning "Flame Tripper") is a Japanese manga by Rumiko Takahashi published in August 1983 issue of Shōnen Sunday Zōkan. The manga was later compiled in Rumic World books, which are available in English from Viz Media. It was adapted into an anime OVA. In North America, this was released on VHS by Central Park Media under the Rumik World series (which also included OVAs Laughing Target, Maris the Chojo, and Mermaid Forest). Fans of Inuyasha will see a similarity between this one-shot story and the plot of Inuyasha as both feature a Japanese schoolgirl who's magically transported back in time and who meets and falls in love with a rough but lovable boy who becomes her protector during the Japanese "Warring States" era.
