Blue Period
Second-year high school student Yatora Yaguchi is bored with his normal
life. He studies well and plays around with his friends, but in truth,
he does not enjoy either of those activities. Bound by norms, he
secretly envies those who do things differently.
That is until he discovers the joy of drawing. When he sees a painting
made by a member of the Art Club, Yatora becomes fascinated with the
colors used in it. Later, in an art exercise, he tries to convey his
language without words but instead through painting. After that
experience, Yatora finds himself so invested in art that he decides that
it is what he wants to do for a living. But there stand multiple
obstacles in his way: his parents who are hesitant over his unique
choices, his more experienced peers, and the study of a subject much
deeper than he initially expected.
