    I cried at the part where Eric’s son read his letter. I love how every character has an emotionally engaging story arc. Adult cartoons can be grotesque and this is the opposite but still funny

      I just watched that episode, and I was tearing up when Steven got to the end of it. It was sad to think that Steven felt guilty and that he didn’t think he was enough for his father. I’m only a son and not a father, but I felt the pain on both sides.

I also liked steven's and eric's episode, from the start I knew that eric was lying but that letter scene oh my goooddd.

    Normally I don’t like tv shows that have nothing going on plot wise and just show a characters day to day life but set amongst the backdrop of the world ending in 7 months, all of a sudden what these characters choose to do with their time remaining says so much about their personality that I immediately got invested

    Episode 7 of the show is a vignette episode focusing on short scenes featuring random background characters from the office; one of those scenes is a date between 2 gay black men and as cute as it was it hit me, other than Moonlight I couldn’t remember the last time I saw gay black men depicted as a couple in a tv show or movie and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in animation.

    This show is honestly, in my opinion, the single best piece of animated media to come out of 2023.
    As a person who is introverted, and has historically struggled to fit in, Carol is a very relatable character, honestly. Different from other adult animated series that wanna get you thinking, she's not even really a flawed or inherently bad person. She just doesn't fit in with the fast paced lifestyle everyone around her is taking with the end of the world, and wants a sense of things being normal again.
    I absolutely adore that, and it feels just right from a person who also can't stand parties, and is scared to do things that might be dangerous, but enjoys just the company of others, even sometimes without a single spoken word.
    This show cut me deep in a lot of ways, and I think it's a must watch.

    Carol's episode with her sister really summed up the show for me. I had already peeped that everyone was living life on the edge with the thought that life is gonna end in a few months. But for Carol's sister to get that she needed to just slow down and just be with her sister and then do what she did with the tape 😭 Let me go back for another watch!

    The overall narrative is whatever, take it or leave it. But there's individual episodes, even individual moments, that just hit me to the core and really resonated. The ending of the camping trip episode, the ending of the lost & found episode, and the entire road trip episode immediately jump out at me. Fantastic show.

    I love to see more adult animation like this. Not the "sexual theme" or "violence heavy" kind, but more like questioning and living the comfort of your adulthood. Do you like the things you do out of comfort, or out of fear? Do you have any regrets or wishes you want to make for the future? Are you yourself if you're in a can full of sardines? What is there for meaningful connection if you focus on the fixing flaws and not appreciating the things for what they are?

    I thought the show was fantastic. I'd like more seasons, it was a refreshing change in the way adult animation is done. It's hard to describe but it felt groundbreaking for an adult animated series that seemed like a mature approach tackling some deep topics.
    My only gripe with the show was the seemingly random over the top sex scenes that got sprinkled in once in a while in a 2 second flash. It felt unnecessary. I'm fine with shows pushing the boundaries, but it was being pushed in at random and felt forced and other than shock value, it wasn't funny usually.

      Oh my goodness, I thought I was crazy!!!!! This show was garbage, there were two good episodes. But gosh I was bored most of the time watching.

    This video deserves more views 🥲 I never really thought of Sephiroth in that way but he at least he had some tiny fraction of humanity he considered Angeal and Genesis as friends and was visibly hurt when the two left SOLDIER

    Definitely has its moments that are funny and nice. Overall though it is certainly pretty boring. I watched it all the way through anyway.
