Shiguang Dailiren

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, it holds an infinite amount of secrets. These are secrets that only Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang are able to find. In a small shop called "Time Photo Studio," the two friends provide a special service: using their extraordinary powers that let them enter photographs, they jump into pictures brought to them by clients in order to grant their wishes. Through the eyes of the photographer, they live through the events surrounding the picture and try to decipher how to solve their client's request.

But every time they jump into a picture, they take a great risk. One wrong move and they could alter the future of the person who took the picture... and possibly countless other events too. So when the events they are forced to live through in these pictures start to become personal, it will take the utmost strength to push their feelings aside and focus on accomplishing the task they were paid to do.

I recommend this anime. Do not judge a book by its cover, do not judge an anime by its first few minutes of the episode, because that's what I exactly did. I first thought that this would be a generic mystery anime, but NAH! This one was very epic. I binge-watched this anime. I couldn't leave my computer for personal necessities! Also, when you watch this anime prepare for loads of tissues because you will be crying a lot! Each episode of this anime gets you tearing so buckle up! The animation, sound effects, and other aspects nailed it well! This made the overall, a ... 10/10! Watch it now, you won't regret it. I didn't regret it. It is worth to watch this anime!

Mixed Feelings

This is a great show that I feel threw away its entire plot in the last 2 minutes of the final episode. Like they've ended the season PERFECTLY, then the writer couldn't control themselves and had to keep writing and wrote the story from a Your Name level of perfect ending to one that is just sadistic, evil, needlessly cliff hangery and lacking in confidence.

It just feels like they had so little confidence that people will come back for season 2 that they decided to write one of the most contrived and unnecessary endings in and ruined a beautiful story from the heart into ... a generic good vs evil story. I went from being extremely excited for season 2 to not even having ANY interest in continuing after the writers showed just what kind of petty people they are to the viewers and the characters.

I won't spoil the ending but all I'll say is that if you want this show to be a 8-9 out of 10 instead of 7, stop watching at the first credits of the final episode.

Not Recommended

Preliminary (3/11 eps)

The storyline is boring, from the start it's not interesting, Introducing yourself to the audience takes too long, and the scene at the beginning is repeated again.
Boring story, every episode there is always a problem, and the same thing keeps repeating itself, namely going to the past and changing it, The only difference is the client and the process, but the essence is still the same, boring!

The initial prologue is also very annoying! Why does every episode always introduce the same thing? Even though just 1 or 2 time is not a problem, But all the episodes are filled with the same introduction, I'm sick ... of hearing it, I also already know their jobs so there's no need to fill all the episodes with information about what they do!

Basically, this is just a boring animation with a prologue in each episode to make it long, but only a little of the main story. Worst of all, it's incompetent, there's even one episode that spends 5 minutes just on the introduction and preview of the previous episode, I think that's very useless.Because the audience definitely remembers what happened in the previous episode, especially if you watch it continuously and it will get even crazier to hear the initial prologue. If this anime aired once a year I would forgive the initial prologue because of course some people would forget the storyline of the previous episode because the animation airs once a year!
