Link Click: Bridon Arc

Link Click, known in Chinese as Shiguang Dailiren, is an original net animation series produced by the studio LAN for bilibili. Premiering in 2021, the series was created and directed by Li Haoling, who sought to blend supernatural mystery with character-driven emotional drama. The series follows protagonists Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang as they use special abilities to enter photographs, a unique narrative conceit that allows the show to explore complex themes of regret, memory, and the butterfly effect within a grounded, urban contemporary setting.

The production design distinguishes itself through a vibrant, atmospheric aesthetic that contrasts the mundane reality of modern China with the distinct visual signatures of the past trapped within various photographs. The Bridon Arc, a significant narrative chapter within the series, is noted for its high-stakes tension and structural complexity. Upon release, the show garnered significant critical acclaim both domestically and internationally, praised for its innovative storytelling, psychological depth, and high-quality animation that helped propel the profile of Chinese animation on the global stage.
