Congratulatory comment】 ※原文ママ
I am very happy because it was one of my goals as a manga artist to make an anime.
The fact that so many professionals, including the director and staff, were involved in reinterpreting and reconstructing "Blue Period" into an animated work gives me a strange feeling of being able to share a work called "Blue Period" with everyone, which is different from saying that the work is leaving my hands.
Also, as someone who went through the art school entrance exam, it is very exciting to see an anime about the art school entrance exam.
I am very excited to be involved in the production of this anime, and I hope that you will be as excited as I am to see how Hachitaro and his friends will move and speak.

＜Synopsis of "Blue Period
One day, Yaguchi Yatora, a high school student living a fulfilling life with excellent grades and a high ranking in the school caste, but feeling somewhat empty and frustrated, is captivated by a picture. The impact of the painting spurred Yaguchi to throw himself into the world of art, which is both beautiful and demanding. This is a passionate, tearful, and sporty art story that will appeal even to those who do not draw.

In addition, the official "Blue Period" Twitter account and the official TV anime website have been launched. The latest information on the work and exclusive contents will be provided.
