Carole & Tuesday

It has been 50 years since mankind began its migration to the terraformed Mars, where they live in comfort due to advancements in AI. Carole lives in the metropolis of Alba City, working part-time by day and playing keyboard by night. Tuesday has run away from her home in Hershell City to escape the grip of her wealthy family, and instead hopes to pursue music with her acoustic guitar.

After a fateful encounter, the two decide to perform music together. Up against the AI singers that dominate the music world, the two of them believe that together they can convey their feelings through their songs. Will hard work and luck be enough for the duo to create the biggest miracle that Mars has ever seen?

Simultaneously among the worst things Watanabe has ever directed, while still being a boundlessly heartwarming and optimistic parable about the timeless power of music. With every passing year Watanabe’s notion about the value of the human element in the creation of art becomes more relevant, with the ominous possibility of Carole and Tuesday’s dystopian AI-dominated music industry becoming more and more plausible. I do think it’s a little ironic that in spite of this messaging, about 70% of the series’s song catalogue feels like it was written by an algorithm, but perhaps that was intentional, as the music of the main duo does generally serve ...

Mixed Feelings

Its definitely not the best anime out there. Its not something you watch for an absolutely amazing plot and characters, which you closely analyze. Rather its one of those animes where you can turn off your brain and mindlessly consume (and forget about later on). Some of the songs were nice. The repeated intro is annoying. I wouldn't recommend this show if you are looking for something nuanced and developed.

The plot is pretty straight forward. The main characters as singers arent that special, something that becomes obvious when other artists are introduced. But somehow, with the power of being anime mcs everyone thinks they ...

Geez, this one turned into a mess.

STORY:
Tuesday runs away from home because she feels suffocated or something. She finds Carole, the black girl, and they become a singing duo, blah blah blah. It's very "Hallmark" in many ways. The story is boring and there are many plot holes and dumb political bullshit that didn't need to be put in here. Clearly people don't like Trump, or at least these Japanese people dont and it shows. There's also dumb crap about how black people are oppressed on Earth because they can't come to Mars or some crap like that. It's really dumb BLM shit that shouldn't ... be in an anime about music.

ART:
Really good and the animation is fine, though I am not an expert on this at all so don't take my word for it.

SOUND:
Again, not an expert but seems fine to me. Some of the songs I listen to even now, though... These girls are supposed to be unique and amazing, right? Then why do they sound like every single goddamn pop singer in this day and age? I prefer the crazy French lesbian over them.

CHARACTER:
Let's see... Carole and Tuesday are bland and stupid, Roddy is okay and so is the manager, there's a Whitney Houston lady, a guy who can't go out in the sun who reminds me of David Bowie, there's a Justin Bieber boy band member, there's some black crossdressers singing a very cool song, there's a bunch of poor black people, there's a black band that raps and hates white people, there the rival Angela who is a clone or something and likes her manager who is her brother in a way, there's Angela's trans mom who is like any crazy pageant mom on TLC, there's the manager of Angela who never really talks and was fine up until he was revealed they are both test tube babies, there's Tuesday's brother who is fine, there's Tuesday's mom who is Trump (It's really dumb), there's Carole's Dad who I believe was falsely imprisoned or some such nonsense, there's this black lady who thinks she's a space goddess or something, there's some unimportant white lady judge who is Simon Cowell, there's a DJ that is shit compared to Avicii and is not impressed with the girls breaking into his place, I'm pretty sure that's it? I can't remember.

ENJOYMENT:
First half was fine until it got to the political mumbojumbo, the dumb test tube babies, the useless BLM crap, and the songs got a lot worst. Also, there's a song that is We Are the World but done badly and is about mothers or some crap. We Are the World is an amazing song sung by an amazing cast of singers and this Mother song is such crap trying to be like it. Growing up without a mom will also make this song a bit annoying to listen to, and yes I know it's not exactly about mothers or some such nonsense.

OVERALL:
Pretty crap/10. Don't watch and just stick your wet, sticky finger into a outlet instead like I do every morning to start my day.
