About the series
A tender, achingly real high school drama from Kurokawa, Blue Flag follows a group of friends as they navigate the shifting currents of love, identity, and ambition in their final years before graduation. Spanning just eight issues (2019–2021), this quietly powerful series centers on the delicate, often unspoken bonds between its characters, exploring themes of sexuality, self-acceptance, and the courage it takes to be honest with oneself and others. Writer and artist Kaito has crafted a story that resonates for its emotional honesty and nuanced portrayal of young adulthood, making it a standout in the slice-of-life genre.
