I have the Saiki K theme. To be honest, it's made doing school work more tolerable because at least it's aesthetic now. Very nice extension and I like how people can contribute by sharing their own custom themes.

I just added this to my canvas and I already love it. I really enjoy how customizable everything is - down to changing the GPA settings. I don't feel anxiety when opening Canvas now and I think I am going to continue enjoying to use this extension. I highly recommend you download and use it!
