San Francisco, CA, July 31, 2018 – VIZ Media, LLC (VIZ Media) releases a poignant coming-of-age series that explores a budding relationship between a pair of high school boys with THAT BLUE SKY FEELING on August 14, 2018.
The new series, written by Okura and featuring artwork by Coma Hashii, is rated ‘T’ for Teens and will be published in print with an MSRP of $10.99 U.S. / $12.99 CAN.

Outgoing high school student Noshiro finds himself drawn to Sanada, the school outcast, who is rumored to be gay. Rather than deter Noshiro, the rumor makes him even more determined to get close to Sanada, setting a surprising tale of first love in motion.
THAT BLUE SKY FEELING is an honest teen drama that depicts that special kind of confusion that all kids, straight and LGBT alike, experience as they start to fall for friends and classmates in school,” says Joel Enos, Editor. “You can’t always foresee who you will be attracted to. It should appeal to fans of YA and readers looking for a substantial story that addresses high school life and issues without embellishing or holding back.”
