Blue Period

Life and priorities change for listless high schooler Yatora when he sees his classmate's painting and discovers an appreciation and talent for art.

Yatora enters the art club. Over summer break he takes part in special training to improve his skills after switching his college choice to art school.

Yatora joins Yuka for extra lessons at Tokyo Art Institute. He has an artistic breakthrough when visiting a museum with his strange new classmates.

TAI's night students join the intimidating afternoon classes to gear up for the next competition as the stress of art exams weigh on Yatora's friends.

As exams near, Oba intensifies training. Yatora struggles to articulate abstract concepts, so Saeki encourages him to use a larger canvas for fun.

Yatora experiments with various tools to find a secret weapon that will boost his art while exam stress begins to wear on the students' health.
