Mixed Feelings
A harem is a harem and Canvas 2 is definitely a harem.

Story: The story takes the route that every harem takes. One boy in a sea of girls who may or may not be interested in them. In this case, he or hs sister help them to accomplish their dreams through their high ranking academic school. Each girl has a different talent and a reason for why they're held back from reaching their tre potential. As do the two heroines of this story.

Art: I found the art well below average from what I usually watch. It's nowhere near intolerable to watch (little blabs), but I would expect an anime that's main premise is revolved around art to have an above average animation quality. The character designs are decent and once again not worth talking about.

Sound: The opening and ending themes go great with the series. They both reminded me of art and love. The voice actors were average at best. When lack of emotion was needed, they did a great job, but when it came time for the characters to get teary-eyed, it just sounded to flat to matter.

Character: This series is all about character development and reaching for one's dreams so the characters play a huge role. To be frank, the characters we pretty dull. They had petty problems and dumb reasons for not giving it everything they got. The solutions to their problems seemed a bit forced as well. When it came time to pull at the viewer's heart strings, the characters fell short.

Enjoyment: The best thing about this series was the animation and that was a bit lacking. It didn't make me laugh, it didn't make me cry, it didn't make me care. It was so utterly predictable that I couldn't help but yawn during every episode. The romance was boring and highly unlikely. It was just going around in circles the whole time!

Overall, I don't really think this series is worth the time. There are much better harems out there and plenty of series that follow the same "reach for your dreams" theme to even bother with this one.
