Artistic Anime to Watch if you Liked Blue Period
Most art fans have finished the first season of Blue Period and find themselves craving more. With no hint of a second season in sight, why not take a look at some alternative artistic anime? Yatora Yaguchi is a relatable character from Blue Period who discovers late in life that he would like to improve his artistic skills. With only a few months left, Yaguchi buckles down in preparation for the art exams that will determine his enrollment in the Tokyo University of the Arts.
Viewers witness his progress as the youngster practices daily, learning valuable lessons from his fellow members of the Art Club and Cram School. He nearly crumbles under all the pressure, but with the support of his friends, Yaguchi accomplishes his dreams — although there is still much left to accomplish as this is only the beginning. Blue Period gives detailed insights into the strain that creative souls face regularly, and several other Anime explore similar themes successfully.

Mashiro's crush, the beautiful Miho Azuki, aspires to become a voice actress — and so the two make a wager.
If he is able to become a successful mangaka, Azuki will receive a lead role in the anime adaptation of Mashiro's work and, to spice things up, a marriage proposal is put on the line. Now adequately motivated, Mashiro sacrifices everything into honing his artistic skills for the sake of love. TheBakuman
