The animation was gorgeous! I loved the unique art style that they went with. Of course, the background and sceneries gave it a nice final touch too. Motions were clean and character designs were alright. The performances, especially, were beautiful works of art. Sometimes I've spotted some errors like disproportionate faces or messy details, but even so, I think this marvellous artwork deserves some credit.

Sound: 10/10
Do I even have to spell it out? Needless to say, this anime was filled with myriads of emotional and meaningful harmonies that brought out a lot of the singer's personalities. In particular, the few songs I preferred the most are 'Move Mountains', 'Loneliest Girl' and 'Galactic Mermaid'. Every singer had their own distinctive style of music. It is very interesting to watch them perform in their own ways. In terms of voice acting, all of the characters had wonderful voices.

Characters: 5/10
Characters felt a bit off... they're interesting people, just felt like something's missing. Overall character development was mediocre, it felt a bit forced. Nothing special to say here really. Other than the fact that they've got some nice designs and decent personalities. Sometimes their personalities felt unnatural, as in strained kindness, anger, consideration, etc.

Story: 5/10
It has overall a great story that brings out a musical and political definitive along with a futuristic setting. The story moves along following the familiar terms of friendships and family. The fact that these two are polar opposites makes their interactions even more entertaining. They had the common 'rich girl' intuitive, where she is given everything but not what she wants most. And boom, adventure begins. A rather ordinary base, I would say. It flows through rather forced emotions, which makes it an impaired way of storytelling. So... it's nothing special, actually. But it's still fun to watch, nevertheless. There are a lot of messages that you can take in from this anime which could change the way you think, depending on who you are and how you accept the facts. "The world can be rather cruel," is the message I got from seeing this show. Not really an interesting message, just a reminder for me.

Enjoyability: 7.5/10
I wanted to fall asleep at some parts, probably because musical anime is not really my type, or maybe because it lacked in proper flow. However, due to the presence of particular aspects I was able to appreciate this a little bit more.

So yeah, that's all I've got to say. Like I said, it's definitely no masterpiece, but not trash either. Watching Carole & Tuesday was in no way at all pointless to me. It had some meaning to it, I guess. Anyways, thank you for reading and I apologise if this review is against your opinion.
