I remember one of these kind of “shower thought videos” that said something like, “there’s a chance that there are 2 Rubik’s cubes in the world with the same 2 combinations” even accounting for the 400 million or so cubes sold, the chance of that happening is 1:4x10^26. Or 1 in or 1 in 400 septillion.

Well I definitely think the probability is 1 in 1 because the odds of there being only 1 solved cube out there are pretty tiny

There are other cameos of cubes in later episodes.

I can't say the episode number from memory but in 2 or 3 episodes there is a 5x5 or 6x6 in view, either in the surroundings or a character is twisting it.

But it is always scrambled 😓

This series is absolutely brilliant. It is very dramatic but some parts are hilarious, I couldn't stop laughing, and one episode in special was super cool, it had an epic scene that made me see that the series is not just about a simple love story (it's extremely complex by the way lol) but about professional development and getting recognized by your skills. Truly inspiring story

I will watch the last two episodes tomorrow

The unknown puzzle is likely an Axis Cube, as I'm currently looking at my own scrambled Axis. Also, I can kinda say that the big cube is a Shengshou big cube (I can tell by the way the outer layers are largely disproportionate and can safely say the Megaminx is a QiYi QiHeng megaminx as I own one and can recognize that light blue sticker shade even in that crappy lighting. Also lovin the GX edge timer.
