Grand Blue Dreaming, known as Grand Blue, is a Japanese manga series written by Kenji Inoue and illustrated by Kimitake Yoshioka. It has been serialized in Kodansha’s Good! Afternoon magzine since April 2014. The first anime TV series was animated by Zero-G, running from July to September 2018. Yoshioka drew a special illustration to commemorate the sequel announcement:
The franchise also has a live-action movie, which was released in August 2020.
Kodansha licensed the manga in English. The story follows Iori Kitahara, who moves away to a seaside town after graduating from an all-boys high school. He ends up working at his uncle’s dive shop, as well as actually getting into the hobby with some quite crazy senpais. He will go through the booze-filled college life, making a bunch of friends while making everyone laugh at the craziness of their adventures.
