I've reached my limit

I watched this drama solely for Kasamatsu Sho so the moment they offed his character I was out. Genuinely it's not a boring drama since they do have a few mysteries set up, but it makes use of every single drama and apocalypse trope in the book and at some point it got exhausting. I feel like there is only so far you can go with "i need to find my girl" and rehashing that plot for 3 seasons straight is absolutely insane. Also somebody needs to tell me why every single character falls in love with Kurumi who is written like any damsel in distress imaginable. None of their decisions ever make sense, especially since its claimed that she loves the guy and does everything for him yet all their problems would be reduced if they just communicated. Anyway, with Todoroki dead and with him also the only romance I could get behind (although their start felt as forced as every romance in this show) , I'm not going to continue.

While Hibiki and Kurumi are supposed to be the protagonists I find none of their journey to be enjoyable, rather I was always most engaged when the two of them weren't on screen together and the topic wasn't each other. I do not feel empathy for them, rather all of their actions are rather annoying. It may be because I am not a big romance fan in the first place but the apocalypse setting was interesting enough for me to watch, but at this point all I can do is roll my eyes. And don't get me started on the trope of having babies in the apocalypse, it always leads to absolute predictable plotlines. They have some vague story about who spread the virus but focus absolutely none of their time on it, because they prefer to keep rehashing the "saving the damsel in distress" over and over so the actually interesting part of the show is drowned in it.

I'm glad they got some decent actors for this show but the writing is so stereotypical it gives me a headache and the main romance does not catch on for me. RIP Todoroki and goodbye Kimi to Sekai ga Oawru Hi ni.
