Ep 5: how is he ALIVE after drinking that much alcohol

[melonatures]

the most romantic part of reset was when he was covered in blood and traumatized cause he just killed someone in self defense and him and shiqing were running up and down steps from the police while holding hands

omg is the actor you’re talking about the mom??? cuz she was SPECTACULAR

SPOILERS FOR RESET UNDER THE CUT

Yes! She was amazing, oh my god. The way she cried and screamed when they tried to stop her gave me literal CHILLS! And the scene where she asked her husband why he didn't answer their daughter's call the day she died? And then she started screaming and she wanted to hit him but was almost paralyzed by her own rage and grief and so she just sat there with her arms raised for so many seconds and then she crumbled... wow.

Truly an amazing actress, she stole the show 😭

[onstoryladders]

I have finally finished watching RESET (technically I watched it the other day, but whatever) and wow, I really loved this show.

A little summary: Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun are stuck in a time loop. They're on a bus that keeps exploding, and they need to find the cause of the explosion so they can stop it from happening – and hopefully put an end to the loop.

The series consists of 15 episodes and they're all available on YouTube and Viki.

Okay, so: I love time loops. There's a lot you can do with this concept, a whole sea of possibilities you can explore. They can get frustrating if you don't handle them well, but it's definitely not the case for this show, which kept my interest from start to finish.

This show has everything: good characters, a good mystery, funny moments, interesting conflicts, good pacing, some twists, and a satisfying ending. I'm so glad I watched it ~

Also wow, the acting is VERY good. Especially one character, but I'm not gonna say who. If you watch the whole thing you'll know who I'm talking about 👀

I elaborate a little more under the cut if anyone wants a little more info, NO SPOILERS ofc 💖

ABOUT THE CHARACTERS

The main characters are really likeable and relatable, and the secondary and background ones are interesting too. Each passenger has their own story that is explored while Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun carry on with their investigation, and some of them made me so emotional 🥺

Li Shiqing is amazing. She's smart, she's determined, but above all she's very compassionate. She cares about people and wants to save everyone from their fate, I think she's a very admirable character.

Xiao Heyun is a living meme. I swear his expressions always sent me. He's very relatable to me because he's logical and pragmatic, but he also has a strong moral compass (which is often strengthened by Shiqing's presence) so in the end even when he wants to protect himself he always decides to do the right thing.

Lu (Apostle of Cats, Conqueror of Asthma, Chosen One of the Light) Di is such an awesome character! I love love love him, he's so sweet but also the way he wants to be a hero? To get the chance to save the world? Precious 💖

All of them go through so much, although the ones who suffer the most are Shiqing and Heyun, since they remember everything.

So much trauma, guys 😩

ABOUT THE STORY

The mystery surrounding the explosion is handled very well because there are layers to it. You think you know what's going and on and then nope you don't! There's always something you're missing.

I loved how there were little details sprinkled here and there throughout the series which you could only truly appreciate at the end :)

The ending made me so emotional I cried 😭

ABOUT THE THEMES

This show deals with many themes because of how it's structured. Since we get a glimpse of every passenger and their story, we come in contact with very different backgrounds and situations. Some of them are very poor, others struggle with family issues and guilt.

And then of course there's the theme of justice... and also the questions raised by the loop itself: since no one will remember what we do when the day starts again, does it mean it doesn't matter?

MY LITTLE HEADCANON NO ONE CARES ABOUT

Both Lu Di and Xiao Heyun are bi af. I have proof when it comes to Xiao Heyun because if not bi why bi lighting?

Wait I also have proof regarding Lu Di because he says both Heyun and Shiqing are cute, but I'm not sure it wasn't just a weird translation gfbfjf

Anyway they're both SO gonna enter a poly triad with Li Shiqing, supporting each other and their ambitions and interests and adopting 87 cats.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk 💖
