As always the calendar is detailed and beautiful. Crafted with extreme care and pride. Overall tremendous, just personally not my favorite year for the designs. Nothing can beat the cosmic creations 12,024, but I don't feel this one wasn't even close to that feeling. So it's a 3 for me personally, but always a 5 on craftsmanship.

I ordered it at my son's request. He spoke highly of Kurzgesagt's work, showed me the Human Era Calendar, and I got it for him. He wanted all of us to enjoy it so it stays in the kitchen for everyone to see. It looks great, and it's obviously made with care. Money well spent!
