Tsubasa Yamaguchi
Winner of the 2020 Manga Taisho
Grand Prize! A manga about the struggles and rewards of a life
dedicated to art. The studious Yatora leaves a dry life of study
and good manners behind for a new passion: painting. But
untethering yourself from all your past expectations is dangerous
as well as thrilling... Yatora is the perfect high school
student, with good grades and lots of friends. It's an effortless
performance, and, ultimately...a dull one. But he wanders into the
art room one day, and a lone painting captures his eye, awakening
him to a kind of beauty he never knew. Compelled and consumed, he
dives in headfirst -- and he's about to learn how savage and
unforgiving art can be!
