The end of the world is interesting, Carol not so much.

Warning: Spoilers
This is a very unusual animated series. It has arthouse vibes, and it's nice. By the time you're in the second half of the season chances are you'll be into it.

That's also partially because the character of Carol gets less attention.

That character is bringing everything down in the first half. "I don't know" is practically her catchphrase, and the way the voice actress says it got on my nerves more and more. Carol is one of those people who you see at a party, not talking to anyone and looking unhappy., you go and talk to this person because, surely, there must be more than this, and find out there is not. It's okay, but some people just don't run that deep.

And then the show starts to pretend as if Carol always was a very deep person. She preferred to be left alone, she finds people who want to be left alone, she starts to not leave those people alone and she ends up being the hero because every introvert secretly wants to be an extrovert at least a little bit.

No. This show either needs a new main character, or it needs to be an anthology with each episode focusing on new characters and show how their dealing with the end of the world.
