Link Click Season 2 released its first trailer almost a year ago shortly after the first season ended (view below, WARNING: EXTREME SPOILERS FROM SEASON 1). Despite its long-awaited return, Link Click, or Shiguang Dailiren, has become one of the most-viewed Chinese-produced anime (aka “donghua”) in recent history giving a new twist to the sci-fi-mystery genre. Despite the anime series originally being in Chinese with English subs, the first season ended up becoming one of the highest-rated anime of 2021, eventually leading to both Japanese and English dubs of the series.
Link Click is the 35th highest-rated anime of all time on MyAnimeList with a stellar 8.78/10 score, beating out a plethora of other heavy-hitting series from 2021 that include the following:
- Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (part 1 and part 2)
- Jujutsu Kaisen (cont’d from 2020)
- Vivy: Fluorite Eye’s Song
- 86 Eighty-Six
- Odd Taxi
- Ranking of Kings
- Komi Can’t Communicate
- Moriarty The Patriot
- That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
- Laid Back Camp Season 2
- Re: Zero Season 2 Part 2
- Dr. Stone: Stone Wars (Season 2)
- The Quintessential Quintuplets Season 2
- Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid S (Season 2)
- World Trigger Season 3
- JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 6: Stone Ocean
The only series from 2021 to have higher ratings than the series on the MAL site are Fruits Basket: The Final and Attack on Titan: The Final Season… That’s it! Link Clink is also the #1 rated ONA (original net animation) of all time on Anilist and is tied with other big-name series for the 4th highest rated of all time on the site as well with an 87% score. No matter where you look, the reviews for Link Click are all-around fantastic.
The first season of Link Click ran for 11 episodes along with a special OVA (episode 5.5) that aired between episodes 5 and 6 but has no interference with the main story. The series also released chibi specials titled “Link Click: The Daily Life in Lightime” later on in 2021. All of these episodes of Link Clink are currently available to watch on Crunchyroll. The trailer for Link Click Season 1 is also available with English subtitles which you can view below:
Using superpowers to enter their clientele’s photos one by one, Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang take their work seriously at “Time Photo Studio,” a small photography shop set in the backdrop of a modern metropolis. Each job can be full of danger, but nothing is more important than fulfilling every order, no matter the scale…or peril involved! (Synopsis by Funimation)
Link Click Season 2 will release sometime in 2023.
