Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita

Because of the constantly declining birth rates over many decades, human civilization is all but extinct. With only a few humans remaining, they survive in this post-apocalyptic world with what was left behind by the previous generations. Earth is now dominated by fairies, tiny creatures with extremely advanced technology, an obsession with candy, and a complete disregard for human safety.

A young girl who has just finished her studies returns to her hometown and is designated as an official United Nations arbitrator. Her duty is to serve as a link between mankind and fairies, reassuring each side that both races can live together peacefully. She imagines this task will be easy enough, but controlling the disasters created by the oblivious fairies in their pursuit of candy will require a lot more effort than she initially believes.

Yo back with me who will review this anime.
first of all why am i giving it a 10 over all? just think about it after i write this.

- This story is really weird but amazing, what's weird about it? The first weird thing about the story or the plot, I think the episode is reversed or this is on purpose but after looking back this is true, both stories are weird in many other mystery story references, this is amazingly weird (did not mean to insult or demean other stories), what I mean first is the fairy, here the fairy exists like the author or ... the will of all the whole story takes place, the two mysteries of the story that you brought you know, this story is extraordinary mister, find out anything from various sources, here the author of this novel is really very deep on the references used to become a masterpiece like this. and the other thing is that we can get knowledge of different eras and stories without ecchi or harem, all fantasy lines of harmonious mystery. it's a value of 10 or really great.

- the second is the character, art or art yes, wow amazing too, This kind of artistic nature is more likely to capture what the author of this novel is trying to convey or write, and a director who understands stories like this really fits this well. for characters, each characteristic of all characters is different with their own mysterious personality. for the short overall brevity, i give it a 10 or simply excellent.

- sound/music, it is undeniable that this is delicious according to its own characteristics, the hallmark of fantasy with a cheerful opening song and a question-themed ending song and the background music isn't too much but the timing is just right and the timing is amazing!

that's my review guys, basically you guys should try watching this anime!

Mixed Feelings

A long time ago, when my age didn’t start with “3”... hell it barely started with “1” I had a high fever, about 44 degrees celsius to be exact. I don’t remember much from those 3 days, but I do remember having a really trippy, surreal dream, the kind Hughes Mearns or Salvador Dali would be proud of. In it I saw creatures similar to gnomes and elves that talked to me, some wanted to cut me to little pieces, some wanted to cure me and some just watched with amusement at my suffering. For some reason I want’s scared but more curious about them.
Later ... I found out that I had talked alot in my sleep and even made sounds that could be considered a conversation with someone who wasn’t there.

Watching this anime made me remember that time and I imagine the author has a really wild imagination or a similar experience to mine cause this anime is like a wild fever dream all in itself, from it’s background artstyle to the stories itself and even characters.

Our main heroine is Watashi aka “I” aka Ms. Sweets aka one of the most boring and useless protagonists out there. She works as a mediator between humans and fairies, she acts like a kind and caring person but she’s not above abusing her power to cover her own ass, as shown in episode 1. She’s very observant but can be pessimistic and whiny, she usually does things only to benefit her. As a protagonist she’s boring as hell because most of the time she’s only reacting to things that happened to her and even then someone else has to do the actual work most of the time. She has no real goal or wants… maybe except to have a rather peaceful and non-eventful existence. Also… I preferred her with short hair.

She is accompanied sometimes by her assistant. A true example of an Aryan - a blond haired, blue eyed, boy who rarely speaks, is a bit childish but does seem to have his shit together most of the time. For some reason Watashi can understand him even when he’s mute.

And then there are the fairies. Oh boy… They look like gnomes from the old “Snow white” Disney cartoon just more like… if the artist was on shrooms. They don’t seem to be evil, mostly bored. They want to help people but they usually do things in a roundabout way that makes me question their sanity. They also seem to love sweets.

The show is episodic which actually works in its favour. A long 12 episode fever dream would be much more exhausting than a few shorter ones. The problem is the quality of writing is all over the place. There are some that are really good and creative, some that are just plain boring and some that start out good only to crash and burn. I don’t think the show is bad. It had a lot of potential. But for all it’s flaws it ends up middle of road with very little to make it something more than just a curiosity.

I don’t hate it but I honestly can’t recommend this to anyone who doesn't like strange, almost avant garde things.

Good luck

In all honesty, this has been one of the weirdest anime(s) I have watched to date and one of the most confusing that I’ve written a review for. I just don’t know exactly what to say about it. For starters, I guess I’ll point out that the humor in this show is absolutely crazy; you will see some of the weirdest stuff in this anime that you’ve never seen anywhere else. The biggest problem I found with that, however, is that it seems to be the key element of this anime and the only enjoyable part of it. Basically, if you don’t enjoy the sense ... of humor that’s used in this anime then you will find yourself utterly and dreadfully bored. Unfortunately it seems that that’s all this anime really has to offer which is fine but it’s really a make or break deal for who will enjoy it.

Because I didn’t personally find the humor funny, I struggled to enjoy the show since there was nothing else to really be entertained by. There were only a few moments where I really thought something was funny but most of the show just seemed dull and slow; it felt like it dragged on for too long. Half of the characters are all flat and aside from the last two episodes, have no personalities. If you’re not one of the three main characters then you’re completely forgettable and fall into being a background character who will most likely never show up again. That would be fine if the main cast was more entertaining but because of their lack of… anything, it’s just not fun to watch them.

The episodes/storylines are not in linear order and so much random stuff with varying degrees of actual importance to the plot happens at different times, which makes the whole thing pretty confusing to watch. Sometimes there will be an episode or two devoted to a strange event that’s actually semi-important to whatever the plot is and at other times, some of the stuff that happens is just for comedy’s sake; it’s just hard to tell what’s relevant and what’s not. Plus, none of the characters even have names (they’re just addressed by their job titles) which only adds to the confusion.

The truth is, I wish I enjoyed this show more. The pastel color scheme, cartoony style, lighthearted atmosphere and simplicity of it were all alluring elements but in the end, this anime just wasn’t for me. Even though that’s the case and I didn’t enjoy watching most of it, I do want to acknowledge it for some of the things it did well. The thing I appreciated the most was the show’s take on modern day problems and inefficiencies; basically most of the show was an allegory for what’s wrong with modern society. Definitely represented in the weirdest ways possible, the anime makes an effort to poke fun at real life problems and can be pretty funny at times. It also did a good job at combining cuteness with dark humor and the balance between them is what keeps the show running.

This anime is one that you should just watch to have fun watching rather than trying to analyze it or make sense of what’s going on (because, trust me, you will not be able to make sense of what’s going on). It’s more of a gag series rather than a serious one and therefore has a lot of over-the-top strangeness. Because of that, most of the episodes feel totally random and irrelevant to each other so you just have to keep an open mind when watching it and learn not to expect anything from it. If you put expectations in your head beforehand, then you will be completely confused by what’s to come. In conclusion, this anime solely focuses on dark humor, satire and complete randomness and that’s exactly what makes it so unique; in order to really enjoy it, you just have to put all expectations aside and stick through whatever ridiculous events happen in each episode. Overall, the main thing I’d point out for this anime is that its comedy is the real make-or-break deal for whether or not you’ll enjoy it.
