[ SLANG ][ CREATOR_ECONOMY ][ NOUN ]
A short-form video deliberately edited so its ending seamlessly reconnects to its beginning, encouraging viewers to watch it several times in a row without realizing it's looping — distinct from 'Watch Loop,' which describes longer-form streams engineered for repeat return visits over time rather than this specific seamless single-video loop trick.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"I watched that clip four times before realizing it was a rewatch loop, the cut back to the start was seamless."
LORE & ORIGIN
Extends 'Watch Loop' with a name for the specific seamless-editing technique used in short-form video, where the visual or audio cut is disguised so a full rewatch feels continuous rather than a restart.
