Warning: Spoilers
Lately I've been watching "Roanoke Gaming"'s channel, in which he describes all sorts of monsters and diseases in movies and shows. And Youtube recommended me other channels' videos, that's how I stumbled upon this series.

At first I thought it was just gonna be another show with a predictable plot and average acting and story. But after watching the first 2 episodes summarized in a video... I literally stopped the video and started watching the show myself.

It left me speechless. I cannot put in words just how good this show is. While the basics of the story may be simple: Girl meets Boy and they're trapped in a time loop, the way the events are told and how the story unfolds is absolutely amazing.

Also, the way the characters talk and their reasoning just feels so natural. And the acting, oh my god the acting is on point. Some of the secondary characters' backstories were also really good, specially Lu Di and the Watermelon guy's stories almost made me cry.

A bit of spoilers: There were many times they thought the loop was gonna end and, well, of course it didn't because there's still episodes left, but I still had a bit of tension in me because every time it happened it just made sense for it to maybe be the last loop.

The last few minutes of the last episode had me with my heart in the palm of my hands. I just didn't know what I was gonna do if Xiao Heyun wouldn't wake up in the last loop or if they'd forget everything that happened the day after the loop ended.

After seeing this show, I'm definitely going to check more cdramas.
