DESCRIPTION

The ability to reset time might seem like the ultimate superpower, but if you forget what was going to happen when you reset it, how would you know what you needed to change? Or if you'd make things better or worse? That's the paradox that faces Misora Haruki until she's paired with Kei Asai, who remembers everything, even if they happened in timelines that have been reset. But there's still a catch: each reset point can be used only once and anything that happens in the 24 hours before a new one can be set will be locked in time forever.

In a town where a mysterious agency seems to be controlling everything from the shadows and everyone has unexpected powers, the lives of Kei and Misora's friends and classmates will depend on how carefully they can use the Sagrada Reset.

65/100
The Weakness of Strength
A Bottom Line
Sagrada Reset is not the easiest watch.

If a narrative that relies heavily on conversations between characters about philosophical topics does not interest you, then let this one be.

Why, Not What
Ironically though, the things that will drive some away will hook others. The long debates, the introspection, and the stoicism were all aspects that intrigued me.

The show is certainly confident in its production, opting for no visual flare to make up for what is ostensibly people talking.

Flow
It doesn't hurt then that a production primarily about the power our words have, cast actors that are capable of absorbing you into their speech. That is probably the most unique thing about Sagrada.

The meshing of lines together and the fantastic music that is just intrusive enough, makes scenes surprisingly smooth.

Nothing Lasts
However, that smoothness comes at the cost of emotion on the character's part. Their subtleties not withstanding, seldom do they make it past what would reasonably considered monotone. You eventually can pick out their mannerisms and this does punctuate some of the more dramatic interactions.

But with 24 episodes of this, Sargrada has a lot of lines to take in, especially when nearly all of it demands your attention. To be frank, there were times that I watched with the intention of it putting me to sleep.

Illusive
Still, there was something more that I am having trouble conveying.

When the music, the voices, and the story fuse into a compelling experience unlike what I am used to seeing, despite the relative simplicity, it becomes very hard to put down.

As the tired cliche goes: It's something akin to a very good book.

Which I suppose is fitting.

Sagrada Reset is a potentially engrossing presentation. It is, however, equally a potential casualty of its proficiency that separates it from the norm.

Give the first episode a shot, and you will be able to tell whether or not this one is worth it.
