Blue Period

When I read Blue Period there were many points that reminded me of Baby Steps. The main character in both manga has no prior experience with their career(Tennis for Baby Steps and Art for Blue Period). Both manga give a very similar vibe and overall feeling. The support characters are unique in each and entangle themselves with the main character one way or another. Also, both manga depict a realistic version of their career paths (relative to anime/manga at least). There isn't any borderline superpowers like other manga (Prince of tennis for example). You get to witness the main character's improvement in their respective areas very clearly and experience their ups and downs along the way. Both are very good at being unclear whether the main character will succeed or not which adds to the suspense. Both feel like you are truly walking the journey along side them.
