Humanity Has Declined is a post-apocalyptic comedy-drama anime series that premiered in 2012. It follows the story of an unnamed girl, who works as a mediator between the human race and a declining society of fairies. The show is set in a time where humanity has seen its prime and now is in an era of decline.

The first episode of the show opens with the girl, who is a mediator, talking to herself, contemplating her situation and her job. She slowly crawls out of bed and feeds her army of pet chickens. In this world, there are few humans left, with the majority living in small towns and villages that are completely isolated. These towns are reliant on the declining society of fairies, who have once promised to help them but are now becoming less and less reliable.

The story of Humanity Has Declined revolves around the main character's job as a mediator, where she negotiates with the fairies to do various tasks for the human race. In doing so, she garlands valuable information from the fairies. Her job takes her to different parts of the world, where she meets all sorts of people and fairies. Each episode is a self-contained story that explores a unique aspect of life in a post-apocalyptic world. The girl has to deal with unique and bizarre situations, such as looking after a spoiled fairy princess, rebuilding a commune of "lost technologies," or trying to make bread that doesn't need water to exist.

The show is notable for its mix of absurd humor and poignant observations about the state of humanity. The protagonist is often thrown into situations that test her patience, creativity, and resourcefulness. She must use her quick wit and intuition to navigate complex social politics and strange situations, all while dealing with ordinary problems like hunger and boredom.

Throughout the show, there is a sense of sadness that permeates the world. The girl is a lonely figure, with only her chickens to talk to. She is surrounded by a world that is slowly falling apart, where resources are scarce and the future looks bleak. However, the show turns these despairing themes into an opportunity for growth and character development.

One of the most intriguing aspects of the show is its use of fairies, who are portrayed as vengeful, selfish creatures. They are the caretakers of a world that is dying. They are also one of the reasons that the world is in decline. They aren't interested in life but rather revel in death and destruction. They seem like a reflection of humanity's own self-destructive tendencies.

Humanity Has Declined is a unique show that combines elements of drama and comedy in a surreal world. The color pallet is bright and whimsical but contains a hint of melancholy. The music is quirky and cheerful but also contains a hint of sadness. The characters are charming but also have their flaws.

Overall, Humanity Has Declined is a thought-provoking show that is worth watching. The episodes are relatively short, with each one telling a different story. The quality of the animation is fantastic, and the narrative is engaging. The show is a great example of how anime can tell amazing stories that capture the imagination and leave an impression.

Humanity Has Declined is a series that is currently running and has 1 seasons (18 episodes). The series first aired on August 1, 2012.
