  An odd slice of life that had some fun scenes, but other than that, isn't quite up to snuff with all the competition.

  Light Spoilers purely for show discussion, won't ruin any piece of the show or ruin any arcs.

  I dunno, it had some funny and heart warming parts, but it just didn't hit as hard as other slice of life.

  The OP/ED were decent, but not great. The background music fit at times, but other times I felt it stuck out a little too much. It had a sort of... video-gamey background feel to it that I can't quite place. Almost like a light chiptune but not quite. It was odd but nice at times, and again, other times it felt like it was either a little too loud, or detailed and in front.

  The animation was pretty good, sometimes a bit bare. The backgrounds were all done pretty well, but it often used angles that lacked depth so there were only a few scenes where they couldn't avoid putting in some background characters. It ended up making them stick out to me when it was there. On top of this, sometimes it looked like the shadows of background objects were either wrong, or really dark. It was odd, and it made some of the objects stick out. On the other hand, the characters were pretty detailed and animated well. Even the side characters had detailed enough models to make them memorable and discernible when they showed up.

  I think the main two characters were fine, but everyone else lacked development outside of showing us their actions that revolved around the plot. Some characters, especially the club president, could've had an amazing episode either about his laziness or how he feels leaving the club, which would've tidied up his character a bit more and made him either more relatable or even just gave him some small motives. Colette didn't even really "introduce" her rich side despite being the summary here.

  Plot wise I think it lacked any sort of progression among the characters. I guess you could say there was some if you really dig, but in a 12 episode "season" that probably won't see any more episodes any time soon, it was pretty lacking. The only exception being two of them randomly turning in to chuunibyou-s despite starting out as "normal" characters. I'm still not sure where that came from... but it happened. Normally you can compensate this... lack... if the show is comfy enough (as the cool kids would say), but it didn't really have that feel either. It felt like it was stuck in a hell between being a romantic comedy and a slice of life, never really dedicated to either. You'd see something that resembles a development arc, and then anything that happened would get thrown out.

  I think how much someone would enjoy this comes down to what you're watching it for. Don't go in expecting to get plot of someone trying to reform the club. It's not that. It's a pure slice of life centered around characters with quirks, and the members working around them. There's some light romance but it's not centered on it either. If you like watching characters have some fun, and have some problems, then this is the show for you, because as the title says, The Art Club has a Problem.

  A satisfying club-type slice of life

  Nothing to spoil here, its a half episodic club anime afterall...

  This was an anime whose plot was so-so, but made up for the deficit through its great characters. No matter the character involved in the interaction, each scene was fun to watch. For people interested in these club-type slice of life anime, this one was definitely above average.

  MUSIC - 7.5/10
  The series' single OP, 『Starting Now!』 was pretty enjoyable, and served to set up an upbeat atmosphere near the beginning of the episode. Nonetheless, the OP is much overshadowed by the ED『Cubic Futurismo』that features some pretty weird techno sounds. For both the OP and ED, give the full versions a listen, as they are much different than the anime versions and quite enjoyable. The anime even had 2 Insert songs in the final two episodes that added a nice touch to the ending. The one problem I have with this anime's music would have to be the BGM which overall did an OK job, although was not as strong as other slice of life anime of its kind.

  ANIMATION - 8/10
  Not much to be said here, pretty well-done animation expected from a 2016 SoL anime. Pretty consistent throghout the series and pretty similar to other animation qualities from studio feel. No heavy action scenes, but it is obvious that the animators did not cut too many corners to get to their final result. The animation does not at all take away from the viewing experience. If anything could be improved, I would say the ending sequence could get a little touch up, to live up to the great experience that is listening to the ending song.

  CHARACTERS - 8.5/10
  As most other anime of this type, I have to preface that the characters undergo very little progression, so if that's what you want out of this anime, this ain't it. Ignoring the characters' progression, the character dynamics were very enjoyable overall. Whether it was just Uchimaki messing around drawing waifus, or the time the club president actually doing something serious for once, the interactions would do well to draw in the viewer. What I do enjoy most is that the main character has a strong, likable personality, which is rare for the most MCs. Out of all the characters, Usami is probably my favorite because of well-written personality.

  PLOT - 8/10
  Plot?? Yes, it has one.

  Conclusion
  Overall Id recommend this anime who has a particular interest in club-oriented slice of life anime. With good animation, a likable cast, and a good length of 12 episodes, this one is definitely a series that deserves a try.
