A Creative Collaboration
Channelling the attitude of the Lola bag, Yamaguchi’s one-off tale continues to be shaped by the values of the Blue Period series and depicts an emotional journey in which Yatora and Ryuji meet with and become inspired by a new character, Lola.

‘I’ve watched Burberry being featured on TV since I was a child, and it is one of those brands that I not only feel familiar with but also admire.
That’s why I was really surprised to be offered this opportunity to collaborate. When the discussion progressed and the collaboration was decided, I once again thought deeply about why Blue Period was selected. And then, I came to think about the things that only manga can do – those are the things that I must do.
Since Burberry is a brand that I admire, I tried to work in the same way as usual. I felt that doing so is the best way to show my respect towards Burberry and I hope this feeling also gets conveyed to Burberry fans.’
