I stumbled across this anime purely by chance, and i must admit i was pleasantly surprised. The story has a nice continuity with almost no filler. Its one storyline that continues right up until the end.
The characters are all likable, which is something ive never really seen before. I have never liked all characters in anime before, but in Canvas 2. they all play their own part and are really well put together.
Im not going to write a synopsis because that's what the paragraph on the top of the page is for. But if you like nice, light stories, with not too much miind- bending, this is definitely an anime to put on your list. Its not a chore to sit through and a lovely way to spend a rainy day.
