Canvas 2 ~Niji Iro no Sketch~
Canvas 2, is something new for me. An anime about painting... My first impression was, "How boring can that be?". Well, there's something hidden to it all.
The main lead in this anime is a trainee teacher called Hiroki. Being very talented in painting, he totally gave up painting and decided to be an arts teacher instead. Why? We'll have to follow to find out haha. Meanwhile, his cousin Elis, who is also talented in painting, is enrolled into the same school he is teaching at. Now, Elis has a dislike/phobia of red colour (reason is reveiled in epi 01) and this caused quite a commotion in the arts club. To Hiroki, an artist not being able to use red will be a real handicap. So I guess in future episodes, we will see how he gradually tries to bring her into using red for paintings.
This anime also has a partial romance theme to it, revolving around (guess who?) Hiroki. 1) There is Elis who seemingly gets affectionate with Hiroki making him look like a paedo. 2) There is also this teacher in the same school who likes Hiroki. 3) The female students in this school also has a liking towards him.
My opinion of this anime is that it may not be a classic, but it does have enough suspence to make you follow the series, at least for a while. I feel that the creator is trying to put some sex into this anime as the ending credits shows the female students in scandily cladded ... ummm... if you can call it clothes.
All in all, followable. At least for now.
yy ratings: 2.5/5
