Synopsis

Second-year high school student Yatora Yaguchi is a delinquent with excellent grades, but is unmotivated to find his true calling in life. Yatora spends his days working hard to maintain his academic standing while hanging out with his equally unambitious friends. However, beneath his carefree demeanor, Yatora does not enjoy either activity and wishes he could find something more fulfilling.

While mulling over his predicament, Yatora finds himself staring at a vibrant landscape of Shibuya. Unable to express how he feels about the unusually breathtaking sight, he picks up a paintbrush, hoping his thoughts will be conveyed on canvas. After receiving praise for his work, the joy he feels sends him on a journey to enter the extremely competitive Tokyo University of the Arts—a school that only accepts one in every two hundred applicants.

Facing talented peers, a lack of understanding of the fine arts, and struggles to obtain his parents’ approval, Yatora is confronted by much adversity. In the hopes of securing one of the five prestigious spots in his program of choice, Yatora must show that his inexperience does not define him.

Tl;Dr:

"Blue Period" explores what it means to express yourself. Our protagonist's journey of self-discovery and self-expression makes for one of the most compelling character dramas around this season. Mangaka Yamaguchi's personal touches offer a nuanced landscape of both the struggles artists face today and their resilient love for their craft. Sketchy production impairs the anime's ability to draw viewers in, yet the show still manages to paint a rather convincing picture. BP's biggest fault lies in its inability to cater to the existing manga fanbase, but its earnest passion still rings through for newcomers. 7/10~

***

Beauty lies in the eye of the Beholder, and the way ... us beholders perceive beauty will vary from person-to-person. It's this subjectivity in tastes that gives art its special meaning. So it's kinda poetic that a story all about art would turn out so divisive among those who watched it. The anime adaptation "Blue Period" (BP) has had people talking for less-than-ideal reasons. Extreme reactions between fans and skeptics can make it difficult for newcomers to decide if this anime is for them. This is because the anime commits specific faults that largely alienate those who have already enjoyed the original manga, and studio Seven Arcs' deserves plenty of criticism for how this material was handled. But let's resist the urge to paint with broad strokes here; despite its weaknesses, BP still manages to retain the core strengths of its source, and offers a valuable gateway experience for the uninitiated to appreciate. To anyone struggling with mixed feedback surrounding BP, I hope to offer an open-minded second opinion on whether or not to give this show a shot. This article will feature a usual breakdown of the story, as well as my honest thoughts on Seven Arcs' efforts when compared with its source material. I'm not here to endorse one medium over the other. My only goal is to endorse a story well-told in either form. And if there's one thing both manga enthusiasts and anime-only fans can agree on, it's this: BP is beautiful. Let's paint a holistic, spoiler-free picture of why BP deserves your time.

The arts can't be perceived in black and white. Well, unless it's in monochrome, of course. It's common to generalize this field as one where stoner artists get praised by rich people for putting together silly sculptures and drawings devoid of meaning. Hyperbole aside, the stigma surrounding the arts is very real. Some revere the arts as a cultural necessity, others see it as a means of exploring themselves creatively. But people typically look down on the arts as a pointless career path, and this is a perspective shared by the main character of this tale. Yatora Yaguchi is a teen who has got it all figured out. He's quite the enigma when we first get to know him: a second-year with a delinquent's demeanor and a star student's grades. As it turns out, his crooked smile is part of a carefully-crafted prodigious persona that masks his hard work and effort. The driven Yaguchi takes pride in meeting the expectations of those around him and finding success in "real life." With an academic record on-track to securing placements in the country's top universities, there's no room for the illogical distractions that art presents.

But damn, if that angelic portrait isn't the most captivating thing he's ever seen.

Stumbling upon a beautiful piece in the Arts Clubroom, Yaguchi confronts what it means to create art. As his teacher Saeki-sensei puts it, the visual arts is spoken in a language without words, communicating truths unique to each artist. All his life, Yaguchi had convinced himself to seek success in school and social circles, but only because the world told him these things held value. Rather than fit in the "real" world, art offers Yaguchi the opportunity to create his own world. To tell his truth, to have his creations touch the lives of other people, to paint a Shibuya skyline, drenched in blue. Art is more than the physical pieces contained inside museum walls; it's passion, something that's been sorely missing from Yaguchi's joyless life.

Yaguchi's initial apprehension towards the arts comes from the overwhelming uncertainty of what lies ahead. Occupation in the arts is undervalued, and career prospects are dim. Artists fight tooth-and-nail in a competitive landscape to keep on doing what they love. Yaguchi is about to jump right in the thick of it, with his eyes set on his only viable path: the Tokyo University of the Arts, a public school with a 0.5% acceptance rate. Experiences in the Arts Club and prep school reveal a frightening catch-up game between our "prodigy" and his peers. He may have mastered what it means to be a conformist, but the arts is a place where individualism matters above all else. Instead of meeting expectations set by others, Yaguchi is now tasked with creating those expectations for himself. For the first time in his life, he perceives himself as a Salieri to the Mozarts of the art world ‒ a talentless amateur when compared against creative geniuses. There's little easygoing with such a tremendous challenge, but Yaguchi has never felt more alive.

BP exudes love for the arts, and that same passion rubs off on its audience. This engaging effect is all thanks to mangaka Tsubasa Yamaguchi's laborious attention to detail. Stemming from both real-life interviews and Yamaguchi's time in Tokyo University of the Arts, Yaguchi's struggle as an upcoming artist feels earnest and intensely personal. His creative process, concerns, and insecurities are laid intimately bare. BP all but drags us into Yaguchi's headspace, which offers an interesting blank canvas for exploring what it means to grow as an artist. His sporadic spurts of self-confidence and artistic output can feel like he's regressing at times, but these flaws rarely come across as contrived. Rather, his struggles and encounters with dead ends make Yaguchi feel human. BP's character drama does have some corny moments, but otherwise depicts this crucial period in Yaguchi's life with a gripping air of maturity. Alongside a compelling protagonist are other inclusions that aid in connecting with this artistic journey. BP is remarkable in how it makes most viewers GET art, even without prior knowledge on the subject. "Art within art" is key to the series' success. In-universe artworks derived from both fiction and real history act as markers for Yaguchi's progress, by communicating the qualities associated with good and bad art respectively. Each painting contains observable details in composition and quickly condenses important information ‒ a picture is worth a thousand words, after all. These artworks in BP brings the audience up to speed on topics Yaguchi studies; such as lighting, form, texture and perspective. And despite the textbook jargon, BP's "lessons" rarely feel dry or difficult, but rather come across as intuitive observations from a real person who was once in our uninitiated shoes. Through learning the technicalities and approaches involved with the production of art, viewers cultivate a deeper appreciation for the creations and struggles Yaguchi endures. The arts homage doesn't end there; BP is brimming with frequent factoids about art and references to famous pieces from the past. Now, there is a small downside when factoring in BP's side characters; the spotlight on Yaguchi often means that many often take a backseat. Still, I believe the series does a fantastic job at contextualizing the journeys of other artists. For instance, the talented Kuwana is in constant fear of failure, with her tenacity wearing thin under the weight of extreme expectations and the guilt of seeing the end of fellow artists' dreams. Probably the strongest showings from this secondary cast goes to Ryuuji. After an introduction which seemed to have got off the wrong foot, Ryuuji quickly came to steal the show through their earnest search for self-identity.

As someone who has recently done some mild studies in the arts, I have nothing but glowing praise for how BP tackles such niche talking points in an inclusive way. With the exception of last season's sleeper "Kageki Shoujo", I haven't encountered any other anime that portrays such an infectious passion for the arts. Unfortunately, this appeal is far from universal, with regards to this anime adaptation at least. This is often the case with many adaptations, but more so with BP. The significant overlap between detractors of this TV series and those who have enjoyed the manga beforehand is worrisome and deserves a closer look. So without further ado, it's time to ask the age old question:

"Is the manga bett-" Yes. 100%.

I don't think there's any dispute over the notion that the manga is built different. One of the first differences you'd notice between manga and anime are the different stylistic approaches. The manga uses shading, linework and framing in a distinct way. BP's anime unfaithful visuals feel far flatter and bland by comparison, and its attempts at emulating the source's inspired use of imaginative sequences feel like phoned-in visual gimmicks. Another issue worth pointing out involves what was left on the cutting-room floor. BP's anime is paced really quickly, and starts out adapting ~100 pages per episode. The abridged result can feel more repetitive at times, and Yaguchi's huge screentime sometimes feels tiresome. Furthermore, the anime is at a disadvantage when it comes to explaining art concepts. From what I've discovered, audiences tend to have a better time keeping up with the manga, which has more room to present infographics and visual representations of this technical material. Finally, the observation that hurts the most is the claim that the anime is "emotionless." Manga readers do have a point; Yamaguchi's superb panels are more emotive and intense than what the anime can provide. And we've yet to mention BP's mediocre production quality, which often results in clunky frames and skewed facial expressions. So yes, manga is better… but that goes without saying for countless adaptations. So what's the problem? Well, word around the community is that BP is a bad anime, and this is a stance I wholly disagree with. Yes, BP's visuals are certainly conventional, but this is an approach that complements the more down-to-earth character drama the series is strong for. Yes, the anime starts out with very fast pacing, but Yaguchi's development in these first chapters is surprisingly on-par with the "rushed'' character changes in BP's first episodes. Yes, there is cut content involving artistic processes and Yaguchi's high school classmates (who show up as afterthoughts,) but the core of the story remains intact; Yaguchi's growth as an artist still takes centerstage to compelling effect. Yes, the anime could be seen as "emotionless," but mostly in comparison to the manga. Shift the playing field, and you just might realize that despite the average-at-best visuals and abridged content, Yamaguchi's unmistakable passion for the arts still resonates to a greater degree than most SoLs out there. If you're a seasonal binger who confuses "Blue Period" with "Blue Lock", what this adaptation offers aesthetically shouldn't be foreign to you. Aside from some scenes in the first episode (and that's me being generous,) there's nothing particularly eye-catching, but there isn't anything offensively bad either. While not particularly pretty, BP makes up for those deficiencies through function; the show is still very good at educating audiences about the arts visually. Lastly, the solid voice acting performances, the interesting OST (+ a banger OP by Omionotake,) and the unstoppable strengths of the source material are all well-worth the SoL price of admission.

What I think has happened here is that attributes deemed as core to the Blue Period experience ‒ the qualities that drew readers to the franchise in the first place ‒ are heavily obscured due to production and time constraints. BP has nothing to offer to existing fans of the IP, and that's a damn shame. Fans expecting BP's adaptation to be of a higher standard than other anime point towards the admirable outpouring of love for the source material, and it's painful to not see that love from readers being reciprocated by this show. That being said, I don't think discourse surrounding the anime should downplay its merits, especially when it still manages to surpass many of its contemporaries airing today. The production committee and Seven Arcs can be scrutinized pretty cynically for their choices here, but I can't really care when the newcomer experience turned out so strong. If you had to pick only one form to check out, go with the manga. But for those with more time on their hands, don't be deterred by the bad press BP has been getting. Don't take my nerd word for it either, go give it a watch; that way you just might be able to experience a great story twice (stonks.) If the show hasn't won you over by the third episode, maybe then consider switching to the manga. Much like how Yaguchi took a chance on the arts and didn't let go, I hope you'll join me in finding an unexpected love for this show.

***

Many thanks for joining me on this read. Living vicariously through Yaguchi's experiences did quell the arts nerd in me. I sure as hell am gonna miss this series. If you happen to like my verbose rants, feel free to check out my other reviews for seasons past and present, peace~

Mixed Feelings

This is nothing but a complete waste of what could have been a fantastic anime. I’m not kidding when I say that at its core Blue Period has some of the best characters, themes, and ideas you’ll find in recent anime. But for everything it does right it also does something wrong. The series is completely devoid of life and personality, and to call the finished product disappointing would be an understatement.

Blue Period is about passion. It’s about identity. It’s about the differences between hard work and talent. And of course, above all else, it’s about art. Putting the actual presentation aside for a ... second, the anime does a fine job at exploring a variety of themes and concepts. Similar character-driven anime will fall into a habit of forcing too much drama out of characters, detracting from the realism and relatability of the show. Blue Period, in comparison, is incredibly down to earth and consistent. Try and remember that this is an anime about art, so I went into it expecting a lot of extended metaphors that achieve nothing in the overall narrative besides sounding clever. To the credit of the author though this was not the case. There are still some moments that came across as excessive but at least they managed to relate back to the main themes and ideas of the show.

But despite all these strengths it turned out to be one of the dullest shows of the season. You’ll probably see plenty of people making jokes about how the series about art has terrible art and animation, and they aren’t wrong. It’s not insultingly bad, and I genuinely believe that animation means very little in the overall quality of an anime. Good directing can save even the most awful-looking shows, and most faults seen in Blue Period can’t be blamed on the art quality alone. Hell, some parts of the show don’t even look that bad. The actual artwork looks fine, and it’s easy to pick the values out of them as though they were a real painting.

So, where exactly did it go wrong? In a number of places, but to simplify things most of the issues stem from a complete lack of care put into the anime. Or if you wanted to sound smart you could say that the series ironically lacks passion, the very thing it tries to express the importance of. As a result of this the show feels incomplete. Entire scenes will go by without any background music, and this wasn’t deliberately done to increase tension, it was done out of pure laziness and lack of a solid production. And when they do finally decide to play a soundtrack, it ends up sounding mediocre at best and adding no value to scenes whatsoever. This completely undermines the importance of major moments in the series and fails to guide the viewer through scenes the way that it should. Instead of having incredibly impactful scenes with beautiful directing and music you get to listen to the sounds of brushes awkwardly hitting canvases while characters randomly cry as they deliver meaningful lines in the most monotone voices imaginable. Dialogue and character interactions become an absolute mess due to this and id present throughout all twelve episodes. What a joy. This isn’t the fault of voice actors or animators though; it’s the result of a product being rushed out before it is properly polished and refined.

The characters of Blue Period are amazing, and this still holds true despite the lack of production quality. Some major character moments aren’t as meaningful as they could have been, but the fundamental ideas behind the characters and their development are always there. Yaguchi, the main character, aims for his goals through hard work rather than natural talent. Of course, it isn’t the most original idea, but the way he is explored through his dedication and passion for art is simple but well-executed. He truly becomes his own unique character throughout the series rather than a simple copy-paste of any typical drama or sports protagonist. The side characters are equally as great. Each one gives a unique insight into the varying minds behind art, all with their own motives and values. Some people might enjoy art as a way to express themselves, others might pursue it due to a lack of other options. All kinds of people are presented in the side characters, and they’re all equally engaging to watch. My favourite character is by far Ryuugi though. He’s probably not the first time a crossdressing character has been written with such seriousness, by very rarely do you see a genuine crossdresser written with this much depth, particularly in anime. The series gives such a down-to-earth view of his character and manages to do this while tying it all back to the main topic of art. All of the character writing in Blue Period is great, but again it ends up losing a lot of its significance due to the lackluster directing, art, and sound.

Fundamentally, Blue Period should not be a bad series. It has a solid base with great characters and plot elements that allow it to convey its messages relating to art and passion. Unfortunately, it lacks just about everything else. Animation is the bare minimum, background music is almost nonexistent for entire episodes, and the pacing is all over the place. I’m sure all these things are a lot better in the manga, but this is about the anime, and frankly the anime is a lifeless slideshow with way too many glaring issues to be considered a good production in any way.

SPOILER-FREE!
Do you remember the moment when an artistic “something” hit you on a level you weren’t expecting? If I could best describe it, it’s as though things such as time, space, and even conscious thought leave one’s mind. You’re left to swim in an ocean of sensation that you don’t quite understand, but you recognize that it’s important. And what’s more, the initial experience isn’t enough; you also feel the urge to learn as much as you can about this “something” you encountered, as you allow yourself to be delightfully consumed by an enveloping curiosity. Everybody has their own moment for that, and there’s nothing ... quite like becoming enraptured with a new thing such that it takes over your entire imagination.

"Blue Period" is a series about that very thing. The most-notable challenge about writing such a story is that the inherent emotional connection needs to be expressed in such a way that the audience can relate or sympathize, regardless of one’s own exposure to art or art studies. In that sense, the show has a massive hill to climb, as any potential shortcutting risks toppling the delicate emotional balance that it needs to succeed. That being said, I was fascinated by the premise given my own history of teaching at university.

Yaguchi Yatora is a popular and academically-successful high school student, but doesn’t find any particular satisfaction in his life, be it through friends or direction. One day, he chances upon a painting in his school that he finds himself captivated by, and decides to try his own hand at art. With a striking piece of blue against a cityscape that gains some attention from his friends and others, he later becomes inspired by Ayukawa Ryuji to join the school’s art club, learning more about art as an idea, a means of expression, and devotes his studies to getting into the prestigious Tokyo University of the Arts.

As the main character, Yatora manages to leave a great first impression. His jadedness with things is apparent from the beginning, but because at his core he’s not portrayed with an unlikeable personality, he does not repel. He’s afflicted with ennui more than anything else, simply going through the motions of friendship and school while not gaining anything special from the experiences. "Blue Period" wastes no time setting him on his journey, showing just enough of his former life to get a hint of his character before it transforms through his inspiration. Yatora seeks to grow as much as possible as an artist, and the show’s strong initial draw stems from seeing his old self countered by his unbridled enthusiasm with feverish intensity.

Part of Yatora’s growth is his becoming exposed to various artistic concepts and techniques, all while trying to figure out what makes them work or not. Exploring these ideas has lots of potential, but "Blue Period" doesn’t give them enough time to germinate. A few minutes might be spent vaguely discussing why a concept matters, yet when it comes time to watch Yatora put that concept into practice, the show often cuts to his work already being finished and evaluated by his teachers or peers. Learning is not simply taking information in; that’s part of it, but the gradual process of applying that information is arguably the most-vital step. "Blue Period" far too often glosses over this step, so it’s difficult to gain a sense of what was accomplished if we don’t see deeper contemplation over the minute details play out in real-time with brush in hand. As Stephen Sondheim wrote in his lyrics for the Sunday in the Park with George song “Putting it Together,” “Every minor detail is a major decision.”

The glossing also spills into the other characters’ developments and relations to Yatora as well. The show moves through situations and conversations so quickly that I never got the sense that I “knew” who many of these side characters were, or understood them in the way the material felt like it was intending. This problem ties into the way episodes tend to be structured, as the content within comes across as a series of loosely-connected vignettes – while there is nothing wrong with that form of storytelling, it unfortunately does not do well enough to flesh out an ensemble of this size. Especially given when Yatora begins cram school and we see the same characters several times over, I find myself struggling to talk about these characters aside from a few details apiece, if any. "Blue Period’s" twelve episodes are too intimately bound to Yatora to cultivate new perspectives or takes about art and character beyond surface-level glimpses.

Other characters are almost completely dropped beyond the first two episodes, or they don’t contribute much to the story when they do return later on. With not enough time to explore the ensemble, their presence feels bloodless. Ayukawa is the only character who feels like they’ve been sufficiently developed with and without Yatora’s presence, as we get a more-thorough exploration of the character’s background and reasoning for why they are involved in art. I enjoyed Ayukawa such that, while I may not agree or like what they would sometimes do in the plot, the drama succeeded more often than it didn’t. The show appears to breathe more easily, even in tenser moments.

When "Blue Period" actually does take the time to slow down and catch its breath, both the level of introspection and art creation unfold wonderfully. The commentary Yatora has with himself or with his work takes on a marked increase in all of its various emotional facets, from frustration to elation. In this sense, the last third of the show is markedly the strongest of the run; if the first two-thirds were meant to be Yatora becoming familiarized to the numerous aspects of art, the last third shows him attempting to employ everything that he learned into his new drawings and paintings. I was happy to see the show finally bolster its heart with this attention to soliloquy, but was also upset that a similar approach was so underutilized earlier in the run. Taking the time to really show Yatora in the heat of creating, grappling with ideas that he has only just come to apply, was sorely missed.

Also missing is some good animation. Actual frames and movements from characters comes across as clunky, and the color palette utilized is stunningly limited. It seemed like "Blue Period" cared more about neutral colors, which for a series about art and expression, doesn’t read as inviting. If anything, it reads as conventional. While one could argue that the conventionality is what keeps true to the slice-of-life elements of the series, I don’t find that it did the series any favors for the kernels of character wisdom it sought. The series keeps wanting to dip its toe into the deeper realms of artistic life and meaning, but shirks away from expressing that visually. The potential for going abstract, or breaking beyond reality’s boundary with intense stylization, happens too rarely.

That’s not to say that the conventionality never works, because there are times that it does. When Yatora truly gets into the thick of it, when his introspection works at its most-effective, the mundane movements of drawing and painting can carry more weight. Each brushstroke on the canvas, each scrape of the pencil on the sketchbook, shoulders the burden of Yatora’s future, both in terms of his attempted acceptance into Tokyo University or his own perspective on himself and his work. Helping this element is the sound mixing, which emphasizes the incidental noises and places us within Yatora’s headspace effectively. Though we may not see much of the actual toiling away for their creation, the actual finished art pieces are, generally speaking, quite lovely.

"Blue Period" restlessly blasts through its material so quickly that both the human and artistic connections suffer, leaving much of the drama falling far short of its aspirations. The consequence is that both the characters and the art themselves are too glossed over to care about deeply. Though it occasionally demonstrates flashes of brilliance both in its animation and thematic exploration, these moments come too few and far between. I am curious as to whether the manga handles the material better, because this anime left me feeling empty. As sad as I am to say, if there is another season of this show on the horizon, and there’s been no indication of that at present, I don’t think I’ll be seeing it.
