Every single episode seems to have the deep underlying message of “Humans are fucked up, on a fundamental level. This is what it means to be human, and it cannot be changed. Let us revel in it.” Sometimes it’s melancholy, sometimes it’s straight-up sad-as-hell, but there’s never a feeling of “things can get better.” It’s always of “these problems are too large to change, nothing can be done but to embrace and accept it.” It is the loss of all hope that makes me want to just give up on everything and crawl into a dark corner for the rest of the day.
