      One of the other ways I find anime to reflect on is the news feed on my Facebook account (I also

have friends on Facebook that talk about anime, but for this reflection, it's my news feed).  On my

news feed recently, I saw a rather interesting video for an anime called Carole & Tuesday.  Since this

rather interesting video featured a singing group of men dressed up as women singing a rather unique

song, as well as the reactions to it (audition of Mermaid Sisters/my brain during exams video if you

didn't get the reference - a lot of people have probably found out about this anime because of this

moment), I figured there was more to this anime since it would most likely involve characters named

Carole and Tuesday.  I then found two videos about the series on youtube for this reflection - the first

being an analysis of the series and the second being an analysis of the first episode, which I think has a

connection to the first video.

     There definitely is a lot more to this anime than the video I described in the first paragraph of this

reflection, although it does provide an example of what the first video in this reflection, a video

analysis of the series, talks about.  Even in a futuristic setting, love and acceptance is still important as it

always was, and always will be, but in different ways.  This can be seen throughout the series in the

various interactions that the main characters Carole and Tuesday have with the people they deal with,

but before their interactions with other people, Carole and Tuesday first experience an interaction

between themselves, which is what the first episode of this anime focuses on.

     In the second video in this reflection of an analysis of the first episode of this anime, we get a closer

look into it's two important characters Carole and Tuesday.  Despite the differences between Carole

and Tuesday in terms of personality and appearance, they are still able to make a deep human

connection because of their shared love of music.  Establishing human connection with another person

is the first step to both accepting and loving that person, as well as continuing to do that with other

people.  Establishing human connection is seen in the first episode of this anime, specifically in an

analysis of it, and continuing to do that with other people is seen in the analysis of this series, or

second video, which also explains why the first episode of this anime, and this anime in general, are so

good.

     I also like that everything I said here so far can relate to the ending of the first video.  No matter

how anything is created, whether it be music or videos analyzing anime (or blog posts doing it), the

important thing is that you like doing it at no one else's expense.  Love, acceptance, and human

connection are not just important in this anime, but for all of us as well.
