If you are into art, this is a must watch.

I love it! I found my love for art late in my 20s and there's so much in this show the protagonist has to figure out I also struggled to figure out myself for years when it comes to composition, color and thinking out of the box. I very much identify with Yatora and his progression as he constantly doubts his skills and tries to understand himself better to break his perceived limits and embrace his true self as an artist. I've not painted anything the last three years due to work, watching this anime has opened my eyes again and made me realize how much I miss it.

Anyway. There's one thing I was mildly disappointed with: the ending; I expected him to embrace the last exam with confidence and just floor the competition with some kind of great realization, but it was pretty much the opposite, to a point the show makes it look like passing the exam wasn't that much of a deal after all.

I hope there will be more seasons of this show and we'll be able to see Yatora learn and grow in university.
