   Sagrada Reset follows Asai Kei and Haruki Misora. The pair live in a sleepy seaside village Sakurada, where each of the citizens of the community is born with special powers.  Haruki has the ability to reset time for up to 3 days, however, if she resets time she is left without the memory that she has done so. This is where Kei comes in, he is able to remember the events of time that was reset, and as such is the most helpful asset to Misora.   The two join a service club, that gets tied into administration, and the pair use this as a springboard to help people with their combined abilities.

   Sagrada Reset surprised me. The show starts off with 2 bland characters, that evolve over time to something more interesting, but at first I did not like who I was stuck with. In my research I found that most people found this show to be less than great, but I ended up sticking with it, and finding it quite interesting. Like a slice of life version of Ghost in the Shell 2, the series pretty much becomes an interesting anime with overly philosophical themes. The animation and design of the show, I loved. I felt the village of Sakurada was well designed as our the characters that dwell there.   I can see why this is not an anime for everyone, but I love the dialogue heavy nature of the show combined with an interesting time travel mechanic, that is used for a positive purpose.

    Sentai Filmworks presents Sagrada Reset in an excellent 1:78:1 1080p AVC encoded transfer preserving the OAR of the show. Everything here looks quite solid, colors are well reproduced and detail is fine.  Audio is handled by a DTS-HD MA track in Japanese and sounds crisp, clear, and audible throughout. Extras include a clean opening, and closing. RECOMMENDED.
