** Hashida Haruka was a recurring character when the story was focused on the cram school with characters getting ready for the Geidai exam. [[spoiler:Since he goes to a different college, having failed the Geidai exam, his appearances are much reduced. Since he also doesn't appear in the cram school anymore, he no longer features in Kuwana's storyline there either.]]

Added DiffLines:

** Hashida is implied to be this at points; working alongside Yatora at Saeki sensei's art school has him eventually reveal his frustrations with feeling he's simply ''not good'' at making art as he is at observing it and understanding artistic history. His witnessing a young student break down when she can't juggle all her extra-curricular activities and no longer feels any good at painting also has a massive effect on him, so much so he borderline violently grabs the girl's father by the arm when he proposes splitting a collaboration between Hashida and his daughter - albeit by ''ripping it down the middle''.

* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Yatora has extremely low self-esteem and spends most of his inner monologues while he's working putting himself down.

** The chapter dealing with the TAU students learning how to create mosaics and frescoes has Yatora depicted in a manner akin to the infamous 'Monkey Christ' restoration of "Ecce Homo" by Elías García Martínez.

* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Yatora is a skilled, hard-working artist with many people respecting him, but his knees would turn into jelly in Mori-senpai's presence.

** Professor Tsukinoki is based on a snake, evident from the design of their eyes and a handful of notes from his omake strip on the TAU professors.



** Professor Nekoyashiki is a very cheery and upbeat person, but it's hinted she's constantly under a lot of stress, both from her work and the occasional sexist comments she suffers being the only woman in Geidai's faculty.

** Professor Nekoyashiki is a very cheery and upbeat person, but it's hinted she's constantly under a lot of stress, both from her work and the occasional sexist comments she suffers being the only woman in Geidai's faculty. She also has a tendency to be unexpectedly blunt and cutting, especially when trying to nudge Yotasuke toward what the TAU faculty expect of him. Her character is essentially summed up when her installation art is revealed - she decorates buildings in a manner akin to elaborate gift wrapping, but later states she considers gift wrapping to be one of the greatest lies of all, suggesting the same applies to her own cute exterior.



* WhamLine:''"What's the point in that as a painting?"'' from Professor Tsukinoki early in Yatora's career at TUA/Geidai absolutely floors him, cutting his legs from under him and plaguing him for the remainder of the year, while unhelpfully coming across as oddly flippant and weirdly aloof.

It's later clarified that he's questioning why Yatora feels his current piece - an examination of Shibuya and its history - requires the ''medium'' of oil painting, suggesting he's trying to prompt Yatora to explore a different material or techniques, but this was lost in his bluntness.

*** Although it's worth noting that their grandmother's doting nature has - in some ways made things even more difficult for Ryuji; Ryuji would prefer to focus on illustration and western-style fashion design, but pursues Nihonga because of her grandmother's background and appreciation for it.

** The nude model that appears during the second exam is a good-looking woman that spends most of her on-screen time naked, but she's never sexualized, as Yatora comes to think of nakedness as being somewhat pathetic. The anime adaptation depicts the model with {{Barbie Doll Anatomy}}
