The most underrated Chinese anime of 2021 is back.

Link Click season 2 will begin airing on August 04, 2025 on Bilibili, the officialLink Click twitter account announced. Episodes will be released weekly at 11 a.m. GMT+8.

Romanized as Shiguang Dailiren, the Chinese anime is not based on any manga, comic, or prior material. Out of nowhere, animated by Studio LAN and produced by Bilibili, Link Click was released in April 2021 with 11 episodes, and is currently one of the most highly acclaimed titles onMyAnimeList (MAL).

Warning: Major spoilers if you haven’t watched Link Click season 1.

The last episode of season one aired on Jun 29, 2025 and ended on a huge cliffhanger — Lu Guang was stabbed by Qiao Ling, who was possessed by an unknown attacker.

Like the two supernaturally gifted protagonists, the red-eyed villain can also apparently move through time. He’s shown possessing Liu Min in the reflection of Xiaoshi in the official poster.

The trailer of Link Click season 2 opens with a funeral scene without revealing the face of the deceased, then shows Xiaoshi in a holding cell, which leads us to believe that Lu Guang really did meet his demise.

It’s only towards the end do we see a tall, broad-shouldered man suiting up while talking on the phone about Liu Min, the son of the CEO of Quede Games who claims to have been used by the mysterious attacker.

It ends with a dramatic face reveal: narrow-eyed, brown hair, and round glasses, smiling cunningly into the screen. Could he be the third person with the power to control others, or is he working with the unknown villain?

Whatever the case is, this person is definitely up to no good, and judging from the poster, Cheng Xiaoshi would have to play a much larger role in the unfolding of season two.
