Thriller Packed 15 Episodes Show

Story starts with Li shi qing ( student, FL) waking up in bus moments before it goes up in flames and starts to experience the incident all over again, she tries to escapes the inevitable only to tag along Xiao He Yun (ML, game architect, passenger of bus) in to time loop. How they manage to escapes this never-ending time loop n save everyone - is entire premise of the plot. The show is one of best offerings of C-ent, i have seen in past year, i rate it around 8.7-8.8/ 10 for its genre.

The plot progress in most realistic way, both ML & FL goes though repeats of death experience with moral conundrum (for ML part) trying to find the truth and figuring out the loop. Mind you not every loop is same, as both tries to crackdown & alters a sequence , each time it plays out differently - victims varies.

Every passenger on the bus get their moment as leads investigate and shed some light on their lives (moments that tugs your heart). As loop continues stakes goes up - it starts to take a troll on their health n final loop comes closer. The loop gets bit convoluted with police plotline in later episodes of the show.

Each loop have its moments to keep you edge of seat, with some fillers but can overlook. Acting of leads is impressive, supporting cast are good too. Though i impressed with the direction n cinematography, can't help to feel let down with ending as they left out questions about loop logic - only after little research i came know the answers - this is because team is restricted with censorship.
