Still here
Watched all of Carol & The End of the World today. I highly reccomend it, I have never felt such gentle loneliness while watching an animated show.

One of my sequences for the lost and found episode was best boy Luis skating to I Will Survive. For a two year-old board, I'm still really proud of it. Thank you to my board teammate (you know who you are) for helping me get the cleans done on the spins.

Hi, Dr. Berookim. This is, um, Carol Kohl. I hope you're doing well. Savouring life. Um, I'm calling to maybe set up an appointment for a cleaning. My schedule's pretty much open. Again, this is Carol Kohl. Hope to hear from you soon. Okay, bye.

Please go watch "Carol and the End of the World"
(emotional feelings below)
I am the type of person that is emotionally effected by the media I watch. so I try my best to watch and read things that are overall happy and don't trigger my depression.
I was a little worried that the series would make me sad with no happy ending but a cartoon with an older woman as the protagonist is so rare and so I wanted to give this show a chance no matter what.
many movies and series have made me cry in the past with very emotional scenes or endings but this cartoon is completely different.
It made my cry through out all the episodes and feel a way that no other cartoon had, a weird existential sadness that was tinged with happiness.
"Carol and the End of the World" makes me want to live.
I watched it and it made me want to look to my future and be happy.

Been thinking about Carol and this interaction she has with her sister, Elena.
They are talking about regrets they have, things they wish they could have done before the world began to end.
Carol says, "I wish I could have said no to more things."
Elena responds: "Jesus, Carol!"
And at first, I understood Elena's reaction. Carol doesn't...do much. She works at an office recreationally, for goodness's sake! Does Carol just want to live the life of a hermit, never changing or doing anything differently?
But then I thought about it more.
Her parents and sister are significantly more extroverted than she is, so it stands to reason that she'd spent massive chunks of her younger years being dragged along on their adventures. Carol is 42 years old. She had another job before the Distraction (being a middle school secretary) and has presumably done many other things. She's old enough, and mature enough, to know what she wants. And what she wants, is just to live a quiet and routine life and hang out with her friends.
Now that she's also old enough to reflect, I bet the reason she says she wishes she'd said no to more things is because she feels like she wasted time spent doing what other people wanted (her) to do, time she could have spent living her life on her own (seemingly unconventional or boring) terms.
Hell, they even say in the episode that Elena admires Carol's willingness to just do what she wants. Normally, when one pictures a person who does what they want, they picture a bold, free-spirit unrestrained by societal conventions. They don't picture someone like Carol Kohl, seemingly imprisoned in a cage of her own making.
But it's not a cage. It's a home she chose to make for herself.

I just finished a beautiful miniseries called; Carol & The End Of The World
It's a slow, slice-of-life adult animated show with an interesting premise - the world is about to end in 7 months due to a planet that's going to hit Earth, so people are spending the rest of their time alive doing everything they ever wanted. Visiting places they always wanted to see, learning skills they always wanted to know.
The main character Carol is a meek and quiet middle-aged lady who is not very adventurous and doesn't have any big dreams. All she wants is a sense of normalcy in a very chaotic world.
The show, to me, feels like an ode to humanity and to being human. It's incredibly moving and very bittersweet.

Adult cartoon with middle age woman as main hero about oncoming the end of the world exist and you are sleeping on it
youtube
it was released 15 december of 2023
i watched first episode and i. i am shocked.
sometimes people say that media catches it time - this is 100% about this thing (at least first episode, i didn't watch further yet). it feels so realistic in a way you don't expect at all. i don't want to spoil anything just watch. can't wait to see all of it
also character design is just on TOP. Carol is a character of all time, i just have to make fanarts, but i want to see all episodes first

Hihi, Thank you for your contributions to Carol & The End of the World. I really enjoyed the series, and it's one that I'd like to revisit before the new year. I'll admit that when I saw it was another Netflix adult animation i figured it would be something just raunchy for the sake of being "for adults", but this managed to surprise me. The characters felt deeply human--conflicted--but also hopeful and kind in their own ways. It felt like sitting through a storm with the power out, but being handed a warm beverage and a blanket. Thanks
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your thoughts! That's a beautiful, apt description of the experience.
I can totally relate to your initial reservations. Even while working on it, I had a sneaking prejudice – that it couldn't completely divorce itself from the general mean-spiritedness or shock factor we've come to expect from Western adult animation (up until recently). But even the arguably most conventionally-structured adult comedy episode, "David" is sweet and sincere and I'm glad my unfair assumption that it was just going to take the piss out of a guy that died alone at his desk was wrong.
Thank you for giving it a chance, and I hope your rewatch will be as comfy and hopeful as your first viewing.
