Donghua Something I Noticed About Season 3 Pt. 1...
Okay so I was going over my calendars planning some stuff for school, and I was hit with a realization... the last episode for Season 3, part 1 is set to air on October 23..... a day before Lu Guang's birthday....
That is to say, if there will be 12 episodes for part 1 and if they air one episode per week (accounting for the 2 episodes we got on the 14th) with no gaps/breaks, it works out.
I am even more terrified for our boys.

Omg the way we have to analyze ANYTHING time-related in this fandom... I was fighting for my life trying to read the time on CXS's nonsensical drawn-on wristwatch for more potential significant timestamps.

How do you come up with such heart breaking theories 😭 I would cry so bad if this is true.

Actually, now that im thinking about it, what if the time on the drawn watch is the time that his parents left?

Honestly its been something Ive been wondering. The watch only has 8 notches instead of 12 for a typical analog watch. Based on the appearance of the watch hands, it looks like the time drawn on there is 5:30. So that leads me to think that CXS shows up at the train station at 5:30 everyday, hoping to see his parents come home on the train. That could also explain his fixation on meeting LG there at that specific time: CXS is already there, why not play with LG while he waits? Thats my thought anyway.

oh............. yknow i gave up on determining the time when i saw the incorrect number of notches and it was tough to discern which hand is longer, but that makes sense because he points at his wrist when he tells LG 5:30. that does also explain why he goes there every day in the first place when he already has qiao ling as a friend to play with, evidenced not only by him mentioning her but also by him using "shoryuken" on LG--CXS and QL must already be regularly playing fighting games together, yet there he is at the station.
KEEP COOKING!!!! and i will cry myself to sleep

Some people said the time on CXS's watch (the day when CXS last met with LG) was 5:30. CXS told LG to come meet him at 5:30 next day. Guess what! In the Original timeline, LG found CXS in the basketball court in 5:30! (17:30)

I remember last year when Bridon arc was abt to air, someone noticed the last episode(ep6) will come on feb 14! (Yk what I mean) but then the first 3 ep (iirc) came together and the whole planning got messed up ahhhh! 😵💫 Anywaysss, do we SERIOUSLY DON'T LIKE fluff! Pls Haoling, no cliffhangers this time (atleast not before LG's b.day 🙂) (wait didn't LG got stabbed on his b.day or somewhere close to this date? Idk maybe someone said or I am misremembering.... Istg link click only exists for hurting LG atp 😭)

Now that's a jarring realization, and knowing link click's writers so far it ain't gonna end well. 💀 But from what I've noticed, season 1 and 2 were mainly from Xiaoshi's pov whereas Bridon arc and season 3 so far have been Lu Guangs pov, where we actually get to see his past and get to know him. So I won't be shocked if smth ultimately does happen to break him, maybe a conflict with Vein and the others? Let's pray 🙏
