A manga about the struggles and rewards of a life dedicated to art. 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. This premium slipcase collects the first six volumes of the acclaimed manga and an exclusive, 16-page booklet containing color and black-and-white illustrations never before published in English!
