Who the frick is this made for? It took me two tries to finish the first episode because the main character was so fricking unlikable. The world is ending and this b***h wants to be an admin assistant? Does this get any better?

It definitely comes across as some bitter old roastie's sad porn
The show’s egregiousness goes deeper than that, I think, but I want to understand why.
I'm sure it does, but I don't think I'm interested in watching any more to find out how
I really don’t care about the details, I’m only interested in the premise and why it’s such a terrible reflection of the stagnation of humanity.
>deeper than that
Maybe it's a self insert?
Self inserts are fine if done correctly. I just find the craving of soullessness the protag wants from a routine work schedule alarming.
The west has been gaslit into believing the end is nigh for so long that it has become ingrained into their psyche. So when an actual threat comes along, people like the characters in the OP post end up not actually acknowledging the threat as serious or not so they just assume their normal routines, blissfully unaware of the genuine danger lurking in the near future. It’s become sort of a mental “tic” for them, not unlike stockholm syndrome.
That’s it exactly. Everyone here has become so comfortable with soullessness that they use it to deal with the fact their lives might as well already be over. Carol revels in her spiritual death here.
There’s something disturbing about the premise of this show where office culture is glorified as a defense mechanism against the literal end of the world. Like humanity has gotten to the point where it craves sterility
It seems like reverse Zom 100 where the end of the world is met more positively because it meant freedom.
>4chin morons don't get basic metaphor
Should have stayed in school.
Life is about moving, experiencing new things, and making new friends. I’m thinking routine is the opposite of that. And it’s like the dnd of tge world has already happened. The premise alone is a cruel irony if that’s the case: a lifeless husk engaging in lifeless husk activities while everyone else tries to get their lives at the zenith in their final days
>the smushed-together eyes
>the Mitch Mcconnell turtle impression
>the biological kneepads
There's so much that's hideously ugly about the character design here.
It's almost like the show about wanting to work in an office as a denial coping mechanism for the end of the world is intentionally using styles similar to that ugly Corporate Memphis style as an intentional choice.
Fancy that.
>The show is ugly on purpose
Thats some high IQ shit, next you'll tell me you are only pretending to be moronic.
Filling your life to the fullest means having death in your sight and thinking that your time is limited (in this show quite literally), so she escapes her fear of death by having a job, like the rest of the office people I think. They're trying to life to the fullest, but that fullest contains not acknowledging death. I didn't watch it past the first episode though so idk
Okay let me break this down for you smoothbrain. This is a show, a series of episodes. Where a character starts off as one type of person. In a situation. And then things happen. And that character learns, and grows and changes, both internally and externally. They change the people around them too.
They don't start the show as a static one dimensional character who just 'does cool shit' for ten episodes and never develops or changes. This isn't a show like 'go chase a rock' or 'fight the bad guy' go watch paw patrol or some shit if you need something more you speed. Maybe go watch an MCU movie or something where the red iron man fights the grey iron man. Or the yellow black panther fights the purple black panther. This isn't a rick and morty show with quipquipquipquip and fighting constantly whenever you get bored inbetween minutes of explosions.
Holy shit I know Cinemaphile doesn't read comics but I never saw the day when it would stop watching cartoons. Just frick off back to your adhd youtuber eceleb homosexualry or streamer memers.
So this is what you're going to bat for? The more depressing, uglier Cathy?
Shut the frick up you roastie pseud. And if not "she's" never going to frick you and you should really raise you standards.
The animation style is so ugly I didn't even try
Watched all of it, liked it. Reminded me of Fired on Mars. Not gonna bother defending this or even trying to explain why I liked it, it would be pointless. At least the hate circle jerks that pop up from time to time count as this show having some sort of discussion around it, most shows nowadays fade into obscurity almost immediately.
All modern shit cartoons are the same
no they arent, why you lie
>Carol and the end of wypipo
Take a guess
It's not for Cinemaphile, but I liked most of the episodes. The people aren't supposed to be attractive, there are no waifus, and it's not promoting the characters' way of life. It does something I haven't seen before and that's worth points in my book. If you didn't like the first episode, you won't like the rest. But you got your (You)s, so congrats.
It's just artsy-fartsy industryslop. When I saw Alex Hirsch and the rest of the gang shilling this shit heavily, I knew to steer clear away.
Cinemaphile has shit taste the thread
This show reminds me of Bojack, pretentious slop that emotionally immature adult children will praise as "deep and meaningful" and will claim that "it saved them"
Wine aunts and cat moms
Carol & The End of the World was cool, but it did get a little bothersome with how directionless it would get. Was a genius move to release it at the end of the year, though. A lot of the themes hit harder because of that seasonal depression.
Why can't they just make good looking cartoons? What's so hard about that?
The hr harpies would be jealous. They can’t even be fun ugly like Beavis and Butthead
