Hmmm I think hajime no ippo (about boxing), chihayafuru (about karuta), kono oto tomare (about koto), blue giant (about jazz) are pretty similar in term of inspirational and personal growth. It's also interesting and insanely good!
thank you for the reccs, ill def check these out :)
You're welcome! If you don't mind me adding another one, I just saw a recommendation from a youtube video for 'Kenrantaru Grande Scene' (it's Kenrantaru Grande Scène in mangago idk why) and it's about ballet. I haven't read it yet but the review looks good!
does anyone else have any inspirational type mangas as good as this? it doesnt really have to do with art, just similar in its overall message?
