I finished Carole & Tuesday today. I thought it was okay. Carole and Tuesday were fun characters, and I liked most of their music. They peaked early, Loneliest Girl was by far their best song, but all of it was fine. The rest of the cast wasn't anywhere near as charming as those two, though. They would've been better off if they never met Gus at all, he was a bad manager. I also honestly think the whole show would've been better if it cut Angela entirely. She took up roughly half the runtime without ever being interesting or fun.

The setting excited me early on, it's the future on Mars and the music scene is dominated by AI singers and songwriters. It would've been nice if that actually mattered in the plot. Their main rival was a human girl. One who sang AI-written songs, granted, but still, what a waste. We're in the era of Hatsune Miku right now, you're telling me there isn't some top-of-the-line vocaloid like her in the future? Early on I was imagining C&T going up against AIs doing things in songs that humans literally can't (like the song The End of Hatusne Miku, there are parts in that where she sings literally faster than a real human could and it's great). Instead it just felt like humans vs humans, the AI component was in the background and never really mattered. Ah well. It was a nice anime but I felt it had a lot of missed opportunities like that, plus a lot of wasted time on Angela.
