Canvas 2 Rainbow Colored Sketch Anime Synopsis
Canvas 2 is a romance and drama anime set in
the
Nadesico Academy
which is well known for its arts program. The main character is Hiroki
Kamikura, he is serving as a part-time arts instructor at Nadesico but
hasn’t done any art himself in many years. Hiroki was an art
prodigy
when he was younger, but was devastated when his best friend, Yagani,
stole his composition and won a scholarship competition with it. Yagani
did it out of jealousy because while he loved Kiri Kikyou, a girl who
often modeled for them, she had a crush on Hiroki. Since then, Hiroki
has abandoned his dream of becoming an artist and pursued a teaching
career instead.
Hiroki lives with his younger cousin, Elis
Housen,
who is half
Japanese and half French. Hiroki has been her guardian ever since she
lost her parents in a car accident. Elis was inspired by Hiroki to
become a painter and has become very talented, but she is limited
because she fears using the color red since she was traumatized by
seeing her parents’ blood in the car crash. Elis has been
enrolled in
Nadesico Academy and goes with Hiroki to school every day. She has
developed romantic feelings for him. Hiroki realizes this but tries to
ignore them because he sees Elis as a little sister.
On their arrival at Nadesico on
Elis’
first day, Hiroki meets a
familiar woman at the gates. It is Kiri, she has become a physical
education teacher since Hiroki lost contact with her after high school.
Hiroki is shocked by how much more beautiful and mature Kiri has
become. And is it a coincidence that she requested a transfer to
Nadesico shortly after Hiroki began working there?
