"<i>Blue Period</i> is a great series, with a twist of realism that makes your heart ache. Watching characters experience imposter syndrome and feel inadequate during their artistic journey can be hard—and for some, too relatable—but the way that writer Tsubasa Yamaguchi has presented it makes it one of the best series to hit serialization in a long time." -Polygon <br /><br />"One of the top 10 manga of 2020." -School Library Journal <br /><br />"A stunning manga about discovery and passion… I was not prepared for the amazing story I would lose myself in." -Black Nerd Problems <br /><br />"An exploration of what it means to make art [and] a slice-of-life coming-of-age narrative about a young man figuring out what it is that he wants to do with his life." -Anime News Network
