Akkerman Out of the Blue isn't getting along with the EF Pilot VP I have it in. It's not drying out, but it's not flowing well. It skips a lot and often hard starts. Asa-gao never misbehaved in the same pen before I swapped to this ink.
Out of the Blue is not a high sheening ink but it does have a medium amount of sheen, which has gummed up pens for me before.
I ran the nib under water and cleaned it off well and it behaved while I was using it for notes today at least.
Update: I switched it back to Asa-gao shortly after this post and it’s had no problems at all since, so it definitely doesn’t like that ink.
