    I teared up so much! The scene where they kissed when the timer is up and they spin with the music- it was beautiful ❤

    LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS AAAAAA THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!! I love the art and animation style, the character designs, the banter, the voice acting, and oh lord that whole ending!!!!!! It's so touching and sweet. Kinda gave me Good Omens vibes and mean that in the best possible way, just that feeling of being connected at the soul across timelines, eras, from the heavens to the earth and below. So so so beautifully done ,wow.

    I have never been so utterly in love with a concept as this. Your storytelling is SO refreshing and "in every universe" is always such a beautiful idea, except you've got beautiful colours and gorgeous, individually expressive character designs. You should be so proud of this!! ALSO the interactions and dialogue feel so human and heartwarming too!!!! I feel so inspired as a creator after watching this <33

    this is so beautiful beyond words!!! the colors are so calming in the beginning and I love the floating sequence. all the outfits at the end tell their own story and the transition between the paint and the blood is genius. the voices fit the characters very well, they're both so charming. Avery's head blocking the timer at 2:42 is such a great detail. Avery and June's dynamic and persevering romance is so lovely to watch and I want to see more of them so badly!!

    I could imagine a full series of these timelines where they get closer and closer to figuring out how to stop their jump, or at very least retain their memories

    I love how when he wakes up, he realizes the jar isn’t in his hands anymore and the butterfly lands on his partner’s glasses, over the cracked lens as though healing his sight. 😭

    I love how urgent yet calm it feels. I really felt each second go by as the countdown reached zero. The emotions and the character dynamics felt so real, and it was guided by an amazing soundtrack. I love how it also feels like rpg with different scenerios with the level up effects at 0:40 and the different scenerios gone through at the end. The end sequence was especially amazing, it really got me to think about all the different timelines they went through together. Amazing work!!

    Dear rita chen, You are so precious. The choice of pastelish-like colours… The art style that deeply reminds me of Adventure Time, reminding me really of my childhood and brings nostalgia… Those little shimmering stars are sooo familiar to me as well, is that… perhaps from… some Super Mario game or something..? The things you used to collect as a player? Nevertheless, keep it up and never give up, you‘re SO talented and incredible!!

    The animation may not be the greatest if I'm being completely honest, but the story is very compelling even though is just a short story. I'd love to see an expanded version of this, it has so much potential.

    My thing is, you're not really spending another life together if you have no memory of a previous life, each time is the first time, as if you've never lived before. They can't appreciate their past lives, I'm curious how they even know that they lose their memories or find each other again. It's no different than strangers meeting unless you view it from the outside and that's still heartbreaking.
