Grand Blue Dreaming Is One Of The Most Beloved Modern Comedy Anime

Starting July 14, 2018, and concluding on September 19, 2018, the initial season of “Grand Blue Dreaming” aired with a total of 14 episodes. This anime is adapted from the manga of the same name written by Kenji Inoue and illustrated by Kimitake Yoshioka. The “Grand Blue Dreaming” manga was first serialized in Good! Afternoon, a seinen manga magazine published by Kodansha, back in 2014. So far, all the chapters have been collected into a total of 22 volumes. This manga is widely praised and has an impressive rating of 9.03 on MyAnimeList, placing it among the highest-rated titles available on the platform.

Regrettably, despite its success among fans, the manga’s sales figures don’t match up. As of now, it has sold fewer than 10 million copies, which is significantly lower than other titles in the same genre. Fingers crossed that the second season will help increase its popularity and attract a larger reader base.

The live-action film version of “Grand Blue Dreaming” was initially set for release in May 2020, but got delayed until August of the same year due to the pandemic. However, when it finally hit the screens, viewers found it entertaining, leading to mostly positive reviews.>
