| Yeah, it ended about how I expected it to end.... is what I would say if it wasn't for that FUCKING POST CREDIT SCENE HELLO???/ What the actual HELLLLL. But yeah, other than that, episode did play out how I expected it to, a fight between "Guang" and Vein. This season wasn't anything too special, nor too bad either. Was nice to get some more Link Click and all, but yeah, just give us that season three already man lol. That OP won't be forgotten though. |
 |
| Well... Guess it really was just 6 episodes. This final confrontation felt rushed and, well, sort of unsatisfying for me. I get that it's just a prequel, but it almost gets annoying how much we're left in the dark about everything constantly. Still don't know anything about the dad. For some reason that girl is his mom now. Xiao Liu is watching movies, acting like a mastermind for some reason while having done almost nothing. I laughed out loud at the credit scene, it was just silly. Yeah... Over all, worst episode of the season by far. It's really too bad. |
| they really pulled that in the post-credits scene lmao |
| so someone is the "fake death ability user"... is it vein or liu xiao as he is the mastermind... and perhaps lu guang isn't leading on to the extent of his own abilities either as he was acting like the puppeteer, similarly associated with liu xiao. |
 |
| wow beautiful,wonderful i change my 9 to 10 people don't realise that but Linck Click is really a Masterpiece when I first started it, i could never imagine it to take this direction they know how to put emotions,and make us think no way, he was not dead.... can't wait for the next season... |

This whole season introduced way more questions than it answered, lol.
Just to organize my thoughts a bit:
I'm most curious how they're going to tie this stuff back into the S1/S2 timeline because S1/S2's timeline was in the "temporary good end". Maybe S1/S2's timeline is the ultimate good end where Lu Guang manages to save everyone?
Just to organize my thoughts a bit:
- Season 1 and 2 are in the same timeline.
- In the S1/S2 timeline, it's a "temporary good end" as the protagonists haven't been killed by Vein (yet). Season 2 reveals that Lu Guang has been repeating time since he met Cheng Xiaoshi (presumably in a separate timeline where everyone dies).
- This season reveals the particulars about how Lu Guang has been going back. It seems to imply (this episode particularly), that this is his "last attempt" so he's trying some extraordinary measures.
- One of the measures is inserting a major event (what exactly?) into the past and seeing what happens, which is a departure from Lu Guang's usually planned and measured approach.
- Cheng Xiaoshi's mom is also independently trying to change the past to rescue his dad. She was possessing Wang Qing from when the photo was taken until the end of the scene at least.
- How did she get the blue-eye power temporarily? What did that scene mean?
- Not sure how Vein was attacked by Lu Guang? And how he's now alive again?
- Liu Xiao appears many times during this season but never really gets significant development, but he's still pretty important and it's implied he's the central antagonist?
I'm most curious how they're going to tie this stuff back into the S1/S2 timeline because S1/S2's timeline was in the "temporary good end". Maybe S1/S2's timeline is the ultimate good end where Lu Guang manages to save everyone?

So, you don't understand anything that happened, and because of that it's the worst episode of the season? 😂

| @Alexcav999 I get the general idea of what happened and why. I just didn't like the execution of it all. And worst of this season is nowhere near bad. I found every episode amazing, most being 10 or 9/10s, but this one was simply like a 7,5/10. I can't help it when the climax feels rushed. :/ |
| Yet another season that feels completely different from the season before and answers zero questions while introducing 1m of other stuff. |
 |
| I'm kinda upset by this whole chapter. It's just a bunch of questions and so few answers. The biggest problem is that we don't know what is going on in Lu Guang's head. To have a main character that we simply can't understand because we just aren't given the information is a problem. |
| His mother? Amazing surprise!!! After the ending, the death open the eyes!!! kekeke |
| So sad it is finished already, it was great ! And now, the wait for the third season starts once again. By the way, the opening is amazing. |

@jaunis that girl is not his mom , his mom posses that girl ,
| @7767840363 Yeah, I know. I meant became his mom, or possessed as you said. I'm bad at english, sorry. |
| Does someone know what was in the news? What happened to Felix? |

| Btw I am the only one that absolutely loved the ending song? This is what beautiful sadness looks like.. Also, it's weird that CXS mom and dad live in the same city and never met, isn't it? |

| Hype is back? How can it work complicating this time travel mystery even more? That was surprising, Lu Guang can kill people if he wants but being as he is he didn't, he really just stalled Vein a bit like he said he would do. Interesting, but... Xiaoshi's mother... how in the middle of the fight she came up with the idea to let Vein get what he wanted and collaborate with this Lu Guang even without knowing him and what he is trying to achieve? Felt a bit forced, don't you think? |
 |
| I don't mind the events that happened, I just wish they did it across one more episode. This episode felt blazing fast, I didn't have time to process all the plot twists lol |
| i dont know what the hell is going on |
| WHAT WAS THIS EPISODE?? I'M GOING INSANEEE -Lu guang really uhm actually'd 🤓 that guy -Photoshoot scene YES we needed some fluff. Unfortunately it was just the calm before the storm… -”friends” xia fei is precious -cxs gets exposed LMAO -I didn't doubt for one second that vein was still alive, esp with how he got death note'd... Anyway, there's so much to unpack in this ep and so many questions I still have… What happened in the fight scene: Lu guang decides it is "time for some changes", and we see this with him talking to vein to stall him a bit before vein goes into the building. (Also side note when cxs enters the room, it's wq talking to him. But once she takes a photo of him, it's shao yuanyuan possessing wq.) Vein walks into the room and tranquilizes cxs. Syy fights him but loses while trying to get to a booklet taped behind a painting. Vein takes the book and starts to leave. Syy claps, and wq, now herself again, sees what's happening. She uses her fake death ability on vein (probably activated by saying his real name) and he dies. https://i.ibb.co/rK8hZ64p/ezgif-383df8a1cf7b9.gif (epic embed fail) Now the last few shots are where things got weird, because it shows lu guang's arm moving at the same time as wq, as if he's actually possessed her or controlling something/using her ability. But I'm very sure this was actually just some imagery of how lg's plans were falling into place, as a sort of mastermind/puppeteer. He knew that by delaying vein, something would change, which was why he was talking about the butterfly effect earlier. He was sort of making a gamble bcs he didn't know exactly what would change- Maybe he knew it would cause wq to kill vein? But he definitely didn't know the exact details of her ability, since he thinks vein is actually dead, and doesn't know vein revived. But anyway, I'm thinking lg intended for pretty much all that to happen, and wanted vein to get killed- He didn't do it directly, as if he himself had the fake death ability, but he did seemingly cause it to happen. can still confirm that is murderous intent in lg's eyes.  this look he's giving man... 🔫🙂 There's been so much cxsd in bridon Nobody can say that lg doesn't love cxs in some way or another, whether platonic or not I don't really care, but just who else would you go back in time for over and over trying to save them? Now, however many loops it's been, he's just willing to do anything. Seeing cxs die in front of him, whether it was once or twice or more than that- and he stayed in that room for like an hour after it happened- plus the 4(?) nightmare scenes in this arc and The Horrors haunting him even awake- how he is whenever it looks like cxs is in danger- the way a future without cxs is just not a even possibility for him...(THE EYE LYRICS ARE SO INSANE) and how much absolute priority that takes. At this point literally nothing else matters to him and I mean nothing. If it has a chance of changing the future to how he wants, he will do it. He's so done, he's fcking smiling as he (sort of) kills vein. I mean yeah king slay WE LIVE FOR UNHINGED LG But,, I think he needs a snickers and some therapy I LOVE when characters are trying to do something good, but start doing increasingly extreme things to make it happen or go too far or don't act like themself anymore. Something along these lines could certainly happen with lg (perhaps it already has…). Maybe it would be better if he wasn't doing all his plans solo. In s3, shit's gonna hit the fan because no vein did NOT die. And also syy / wq time traveling is changing events, and who knows whatever lx is plotting, and xf is just stuck in the middle of everything, and lg is trying to keep cxs alive. Gotdamn “Hey lu guang why don't you come over here too and let chris give you a snickers? you don't look so good”  Also xia fei is going to be SO INTERESTING im hoping for so much in s3 -Will he know that it was wq's power that killed vein, or even worse, that lu guang (who xf calls a friend) wanted it to happen?? -Will he have a revenge arc against lg or wq or somebody? (this would go crazy man.) Imagine xf goes berserk in s3 -And imagine a scene when he finds out vein is still alive… -Will he work for vein again or what (Despite how xf likes him, I'm pretty sure vein only sees xf as entertainment, or something along those lines of being onesided) -does xf know the really unhinged side of vein? -will he know that vein killed/is going to kill cxs (well his target was lg but ended up being cxs), and will xf go along with that or will he try to prevent it? And no matter what happens, there's so much potential for interesting relationships... By the end of bridon, lg and cxs are his friends, but vein is shiguang's enemy eventually, and who knows what lx's deal is- but anyway I'm hoping for something wild to go down with these conflicts. My remaining notes after rewatching the ep and getting info from Lh0 interview: -Still don't know who vein was on the phone with (talking in english only) -Bridon being the same timeline from s1 and 2 would make sense in some ways but also be confusing in other ways... idk what, if it is or not. -It's "the last time" for lu guang? why?? -What is in the book thing wq had/vein took? Maybe it's info about people with abilities? It has an eye symbol… -The book is something cheng weimin had at his desk or smthn at bahati in e5. -Liu xiao is the one who opened vein's bodybag and he's probably the only person who knows vein is alive. -It seems like cwm died in the fire, and syy is time traveling trying to save him? just like shiguang. Her actions are changing up the timeline along with the things lg is already doing. -Still don't really know anything about the bahati fire, what it means, or why somebody would've wanted to cause it… (I've seen someone say it might be to cause a distraction and take that book from cwm, so hmm…) -All I really know about liu xiao is that he wants to "turn all uncertain events into one certainty" as he said in s2's ending. Don't know what this means. He's definitely some kind of mastermind/manipulator on another level from the other hhh but what is he trying to do?? -Xia fei's disappearance is probably him going off on an investigation to find out what happened to vein. Don't know why jack (that other model) disappeared too though or if that's significant. Apparently in only the bilibili version of this episode, it said that the last scene of lu guang reading the news/cxs repainting was set three years later from bridon, right after s2 and the li twins case. They were in the same outfits from the welcome home party in s2's ending, and also ql commented for cxs to be careful coz he just got shot (from that underground fight scene in s2 e12) (no way he needed stitches for a tranquilizer, so it’s definitely not right after bridon) So s3 must have more about xia fei's investigation, vein reviving, and liu xiao's mastermind ideas. -Link click’s director said there are no parallel timelines. So it seems whenever lg dives back from a bad ending, whatever happened in that time doesn't exist anymore. It would look something like this:  (embed fail)Abilities: - Lu guang gets cxs's power from his death, but doesn't have it anymore after he dives back to bridon. - Wang qing has the fake death ability. Her eyes glow blue when using it (which is a different shade from lg 😭 yall have a whole color wheel to design with and u choose blue again...) - Shao yuanyuan has the same ability as cxs. Don't know if cwm has it too. - Vein has no ability (right now at least), he is just the strongest. - Liu xiao can hear people's heartbeats, and through this he can tell if ppl are lying. Apparently he has another, unknown ability. - After s2, qiao ling has li tianxi's ability. Abilities can be obtained genetically (how cheng xiaoshi got his). Or they can transfer when the person dies (like with ltx and cxs). Or someone could kill an ability-having person to steal their power. Anyway that's all I've got right now. Time to hibernate until season 3  |
