Shiguang Dailiren: Yingdu Pian

This little side story takes some time to wrap your head around. Especially when watching it on a streaming service that provides weird subtitles (looking at you crunchyroll). But if time is taken to digest it and do a lot of rewinding it starts to make more sense. The plot reveals and twists are in true Link Click fashion. But the vibes still felt different from season one and season two. Don't expect it to be exactly like what you've watched before. But I believe the true season 3 will be better off having the room to breathe now that Bridon Arc has happened nowthat we have been introduced to most if not all the important characters. There is a lot going on in the show but it got me hyped for the next season.

ep 1 oh beautiful...ep 2 3 tf is happening .......ep 4 5 oh ohhhhhhhhh...ep 6 oh..tf is happening ... . funny but dont have better way to explain how this felt though small but no way lacking...but but for 6 ep they tried to fit in too much which made it feel especially in end ep too quick maybe they could have the last ep a bit more longer ...s1 was subtle with its plots and yeah laidback which made it much fun ..2nd season great...but this arc was great with its fair share of flaws.. . but still.. . the main time travelling plots and new abilities are fascinating......and lu guang now on the drivers seat also feels...what can i say "Tasty"... . This was not bad with its plots but now its taking too much surprises which are not subtle which makes the story hyper focused on the characters and that's where the problem comes they have done a very subtle way of character development in s1 which is not too much nor too less just like a aesthetic or what can i say cool or vibey..which is now serious and main so if they made eps bit tad longer just to include some character traits it would have been fine i think....but dont get persuaded this still was a mysterious and make you include in the story anime..and is recommended.. ..hope this gets continued as its been...if it will be i'll be there... . Thank You.. . until next time...bye........ (they never fail with the music in this series....)

Compared to previous offerings of this title, this arc leaves me a bit perplexed. Art work was about the same. Solid, with good background work and great character designs. The animation wasn't quite as good, but it's a lot better than most animation out there today. Something of a quibble at best. Lots of new characters introduced, but frankly the development comes up hard and short. There's just not enough episodes to do them all justice. The shortness of an arc, rather than a full season, hurts the narrative as well. While what is presented is intriguing enough, things are much too rushed. The ending,while not bad, seems to be a crash landing. It opened up a lot more questions than it answered. Watched the sub and usually I don't care for Mandarin. This VA cast did a decent job of conveying the emotions in a scene. The direction was fair, with the overall rushed nature making things a bit rough to tie up nicely. While I hugely loved the first two seasons, I feel a bit shortchanged by this arc. While the seasons got A grades from me, and I didn't find this too obnoxious, I can't see fit to give it better than 84/100 B for all the loose ends it leaves dangling. Here's hoping we get a real season soon to tie up the plotlines. Good news! Season 3 has been announced.

Absolute nothing content. The episodes themselves are a snore-fest, the story is more interested in hinting at timelines we don't see than actually developing the new characters introduced, and none of it culminates into anything meaningful. At this point, we're two seasons and several years deep into Link Click, so having as many scenes dedicated to conveying what was already explained multiple times just feels like filler. In what is meant to be an arc answering questions, no questions are answered and more mysteries are seeded. The series continues to have a real problem with showing something exciting and then having to laboriously catch the viewer upto get to that exciting moment and this entire season feels an endeavor in that pursuit except it never quite lands on actually exploring why the antagonists are doing the antagonism. The whole production feels confused on what it wants to accomplish and so it succeeds at doing very little. It's not all bad, mind you. Animation is serviceable. There's a little excitement that bookends the arc so that it's not all just the nothing that permeates the middle of it. The initial premise of Lu returning to the past is interesting but nothing of worth is done with it. Just skip this and go on to the next arc when it is animated--this arc doesn't stand on its own and it is hard to see it meaningfully mattering to anything yet to come.
