I'm confused as well. Especially since the brief next episode preview makes it look like the reset
did in fact happen.
Well, at least the reset audiovisuals themselves were appropriately impressive and epic-seeming.

I'm leaning the same way myself.
The world reset is an interesting sci-fi concept, and I can definitely understand why they tried it the first time, maybe even the 2nd. But if I was one of the 12 main protagonists, I'd feel pretty skeptical of the world reset succeeding on yet another attempt. I'd also be inclined to think that humanity has had enough extra chances, and it's time for us to sink or swim without the world reset bailing us out again.

Anyway, I hope Koharu can stop the reset. Her motivation is pretty selfish but what she's doing is ultimately the right thing.

Koharu's motivation may be selfish, but it's highly sympathetic. Koharu seems to have spent almost all of her life feeling lonely and isolated. Then she meets Kakeru, who she has bonded
very deeply with. Kakeru/Kohari strikes me as both a romance
and two best friends. I can understand that being just too much for a person to emotionally withstand losing, so I can understand Koharu's emotions pretty much forcing her to rebel at the very possibility of losing Kakeru.
Though I will admit there is a slight hypocrisy here given what Koharu and Kakeru said to Shirou in the previous episode.
