Description
Carole & Tuesday is an anime about music, specifically the music industry on mars.
Carole is an orphan who migrated to Mars from the earth in early childhood, now tries to make a living, while pursuing her goal of becoming a musician.
Tuesday is the daughter of a famous politician who loves playing the guitar, while her family doesn't pay much attention to her, she decides to run away and show them that she can make a living on her own and become a musician as she has always wanted to.
Will those two be able to achieve their dreams?

My thoughts
I knew I was going to love this show from the start, and it would have definitely come in my favorites enjoyment-wise, but I could not ignore it's may be minor, but numerous flaws.
It started off well, but the further the anime went, the less of the atmosphere which I liked so much was to be seen.
I'm not going to say that the show is bad, because it definitely isn't, but certain changes would have made it much better.

-what I liked
First off I can start with the atmosphere, music, and visuals.
All of them were portrayed beautifully, the art style went well with the atmosphere and the characters looked unique and interesting.
What amazed me the most was the music, and the amount of it, nearly every single episode had a new song and all of them were in English, which made me want to sing along.
Many of them had deep meanings and some made me quite emotional.
This show also shows us a new perspective on AI and how it can be used.
I myself am not a huge fan of robots, mechanical stuff, and so on, but this show didn't make me hate them(~~that's weird~~).
I was also a huge fan of characters, they looked unique and made the story more interesting.
What I liked the most will have to be the way they brought the problem of racism up, not many shows do that, and even less do it well.
I didn't think that the show would take up such serious topics when I started it, and might I tell you that was a pleasant surprise.
I'm afraid I can't say more about the heavy topics without spoiling so this will have to do it

-what I disliked
As I said there were quite a few things I wish were changed, none of them were huge enough to make me dislike the anime itself, but they certainly played a role in the end score.
First off is how episodic it felt, it was supposed to show me a story, but every episode introduced us a new character, and forgot about them right after (minor spoiler)

Spoiler, click to view

until ep 24

I wasn't able to get attached to the characters that weren't in the main spotlight and that the story was about.
We were brought all those stories about different ppl and their lives, but most of them felt abrupt and incomplete.
The pacing was all over the place, with some arcs being too long, and the main arcs being too short.
One more thing I didn't like was how easy the main characters got everything, whatever they wanted was handed to them on a gold plate with easy solutions and they had too few problems on their way.
in the end, I felt as if the story was missing something.
They could have definitely made it longer and added more to the story(i think that would have made it much better)

-Conclusion
Carole & Tuesday isn't an anime you should skip, it brings up the problems of our society and doesn't try to make them seem less important than they are. Maybe this is not the best anime out there, but everyone should try it(at least for the music)
