We'll start things off with a sort of blue Christmas mood, by which I mean a couple of titles with "blue" in their title.
BLUE FLAG (Ao no Flag), by Kaito. First published in 2017 and first published in North America in 2020.
PLOT:
Taicihi Ichinose was content to be just another anonymous dork in his class. Then he discovers that his mousy, terminally shy classmate Futaba Kuze has an enormous crush on Toma Mita, a popular athlete and Taichi's former childhood friend. Taichi is initially annoyed by her efforts, but eventually decides to help her win Toma over. Things only get more complicated after this, as everyone involved is either mistaken about who is attempting to get together with whom, but the truth about who Toma is actually crushing on.
