Blue Period is based on the award-winning manga series by Tsubasa Yamaguchi. The manga began serialization in 2017 in Kodansha’s Gekkan Afternoon magazine and currently has 10 tankōbon volumes. The manga won the Manga Taisho Grand Prize in 2020.
Kodansha describes the story as:
Yatora is the perfect high school student, with good grades and lots of friends. It’s an effortless performance, and, ultimately…a dull one. But he wanders into the art room one day, and a lone painting captures his eye, awakening him to a kind of beauty he never knew. Compelled and consumed, he dives in headfirst — and he’s about to learn how savage and unforgiving art can be!
