Winner of the 2020 Manga Taisho Grand Prize! A manga about the struggles<br> and rewards of a life dedicated to art. Popular guy Yatora realizes he''s just<br> going through the motions to make other people happy and finds himself in a<br> new passion: painting. But untethering yourself from all your past<br> expectations is dangerous as well as thrilling...<br> Yatora studies hard and gets good grades, and he parties hard, staying out late<br> drinking and watching soccer with his friends. He checks all the boxes he needs to be<br> the perfect high school student. But it all starts to feel empty, and he begins to<br> wonder what part of his life expresses who he is...or even if he has a unique voice at<br> all. Then he wanders into the art room one day, and a lone painting captures his eye,<br> awakening him to a kind of beauty he never knew. Compelled and consumed, he<br> dives in headfirst-and he''s about to learn how savage, unforgiving, and exhilirating<br> creating art can be!
