Koohii Story 1 "Incandescent red is naturally twice as bright as ordinary red (赤). Alternatively, this is a picture of spreading (already doubled), incandescent red fire. Note: This is used by far most commonly to write 赫(あか)い, although dictionaries do not recognize such a reading (except for kanji dictionaries)."
Koohii Story 2 "Rosy cheeks are incandescent, glowing red with heat."
