| I can't believe it that I actually really enjoy the show a lot especially watching Mahiro's interaction with her sister discussing about embracing new llifestyle as a girl. The overall direction, vibe and artstyle of the show is pretty neat. The bath scene is quite tame for its premise to keep it wholesome is always appreciated. I chuckled alot with Mahiro's reaction from his discussion about gender expectations and his first period lol. Interested to see the side characters being introduced and more Mahiro's encounter for being a girl. |

LostSpectre said: The thing is, Mahiro WAS miserable as a NEET, so you could even turn him into a dog and he wouldn't complain (too much), because alternative of him returning to NEET ways is just worse. At that time he was at the very bottom. I can tell you from personal experience, that as a recovered NEET with 2 years experience, being in such situation is completely different what is usually portrayed. Those people are completely aware of being a failure, being a burden on society and family, have non existent self-esteem and motivation, which makes it harder for them to pull themselves up and even are anxious, that their parent will walk in any moment and kick them out of the house, amongst other things. It is NOT sunshine and rainbows and completely strips mental health. This is the situation Mahiro was in, so when his sister offered him something that looks like a fresh start, he obliged.@StopShot I really don't agree with the notion that if you're comfortable with your sex/gender that you would automatically be miserable if you somehow ended up in this situation. I feel like people with more conservative viewpoints on gender roles, higher levels of sexism and homophobia, etc. would be the people immediately freaking out, even if they knew the change was just temporary. Like, if I knew it wasn't permanent I think I could manage easy enough, but I wouldn't act super feminine for no reason, I'd get a haircut and dress low key. The biggest obstacle would obviously be in terms of anatomy, that would be a mindfuck, but I wouldn't be overly insecure about having sex as a female, etc. I'm positive, that if Mahiro was a productive member of society, his reaction would be vastly different and most people seem to agree that her methods of helping her brother (if that even is her goal), are nothing short of messed up. Anyway, if it turns out, that Mihari is exploiting Mahiro's mental state for her experiments and amusement, then foreshadowing is there, because even in this episode she was seemingly manipulating him into not reclaiming his masculinity. @ StopShot There's no need to write a wall of text just to say, that some people project themselves on him. Just like I can do the same with how Mahiro perfectly represent how male mental health is not being taken seriously and played for laughs. |

| I'd like this series a lot better if the main character turning into a girl was treated as a predicament he had to get out of rather than it just being treated as the way things are now, as it stands I just find it mildly uncomfortable and directionless. (though to be fair i don't know if this is a point of relevance later on as the series is only two episodes so far) I don't mind cunny anime but this particular show is probably just not one for me ๐ |
| Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill. |
| The way they make you think a cheesy anime trope is about to occur only to thwart expectations and act realistically gets me cracking up so much, its just well done. Ok yea I have begun to unironically enjoy this show. |

LostSpectre said: A bit of a spoiler but you'd be correct that the drug Mihari gave Mahiro isn't permanent, (as seen in later chapters of the manga), though so far it's not stated how long the drug lasts, but there are ways for it to wear off sooner, so I'd say read some of the manga if you're wondering, as I don't like to & I don't want to spoil anything.young_kappa said: The direction is him learning to cope with living as a girl, there's nothing Mahiro can conceivably do to get out of this, but it (supposedly) isn't permanent.

VampireLord1024 said: I assume the sister could fix it somehow, but Mahiro has no way of dealing with any of it on their own, so I'm just pointing out there's nothing they can really do to get out of the situation, aside from trying to force the sister to fix it, but then that isn't really the point of the series. I did check out some of the manga, I was surprised to see just how different Mahiro looks in the manga, they really went full lolicon on the adaptation if you ask me. I'm still not sold on the series yet, but I'll wait and see if the 3rd episode hooks me in.

| Oh damn so he can even have period this potion is really doing everything, experiencing it is sure something he didn't expect in his life xD |
 |
| It's possible tbh I don't know how true this is since Mihari is supposed to have taken action in case of side effects, but if Mahiro was able to get her first period... |
   You and the rose are connected. Know the weight of your own life |
| My man Mahiro is struggling lmao and he's turning more feminine everyday. Physically and Mentally. The photo shoot wa salso pretty cute. My favourite being te twin tails and pony tail:D That period though... oof |
 |
| Damn Mahiro is soooooo cute in this episode and I am soooooo satisfied with the plot arrangement. Great job Studio Bind staff! As a person who has finished all up-till-now available manga chapters, I am glad to see that the anime version picked up the most dramatic plots to put on screen, hope the following eps be of the same high quality as the first two. Btw, Mahiro nyancat version the eyecatch (transition scenes) are awesomely cuuuuuutttteeeee so I made it looping over and over again lol. Ending card drawn by Yoneyama Mai is superultra kawaii and I can't wait to set it as my wallpaper :P |

josi_fergi said: I consider the apparent lack of a plan for Mahiro's re-entry into society as a man to be a shortcoming of Mihari's rehab plan for her brother. (I've read about 20 chapters into the manga and haven't seen a plan.) Also, the more friendships he builds as a girl with other characters, the more complicated it becomes for him to return as a man.Well I hope it's a translation issue. From the way it's filmed and the her facial expressions it came off as she did this for perverted reasons not from I care. She kept putting my dude in compromising situations. And well the dude so down bad he starts enjoying being a girl. (he starts enjoying being a girl due to the amount of stimuli as well as the fact he has a life now) Now it's based on you see this you can say it's a good thing because he's better now but to me it's not good because we now have a guy who (potentially) believe that being a girl is better for him which I disagree with and this being an all girl show cements that idea. (I disagree because him being a girl is fake he should be doing all these things himself again this is subjective because you could believe that girl him is still male him.) how does quotes work anyways hope I did it right this time. Hehe. While he could theoretically live out the rest of his life as the girl he's been transformed into, I wouldn't consider that "rehab", and I'd associate it more with the sorts of people that live under a new identity to escape from debts, obligations or dangers from their previous life. At least ReLIFE always had a long term plan for the protagonist to return to their life as an adult, instead of just continuing from where they entered as a high school student. |
| well well this is the kind of content i want to see in animes these days. i wonder where their parents are. and i also wonder what kind of brain activity made miharu think that changing his gender would help him become better. i get the "fresh start" thing but if she really wanted to help him she could have turned him into a little boy and i think that would have been even more beneficial. also it's surprising how in an anime like this the girls aren't even one bit cute. at the start of the episode i was wishing they would go the lesbain incest route but then they showed how they acted as siblings earlier i suddenly started wishing they would show a more wholesome sibling relationship between them. that would probably be for the best. now all that's left is for oniichan to get pregnant and we can finnally get the answer to which one hurts more, getting kicked in the balls or labor. really though i wonder what would happen if he (she) gets pregnant. he's (she's) getting periods and all so that must mean she can. i hope they go that route. that would be pretty wild. |

KanameYuuki said: I have nothing but respect for all the girls having to deal with periods month after month, all the pains, moods, etc. I can't even imagine. While I do agree in sense it’s like having a chronic condition, I some time ago found the mood swing part isn’t really well scientifically supported to degree its made out to be. Basically it’s thought to be a cultural phenomenon and psychosomatic aside from grumpiness from being in pain. It’s used by guys and girls alike to downplay girls feelings but also used by girls to freely express their feelings without as much scrutiny.

| Damn i was prepared for degenerate stuff but this is Wholesome AF. Also i like a few shot with wide angle camera, that was nice. |
 |
| nee-chan telling to you not to freak-out...then proceeds to hysterically FREAK-OUT!!! oh my! HAHAHAH LOLZ 5/5. |
 |
| This is such an anime anime. By being outwardly a fetishistic comedy, it obtains almost total creative freedom in the storytelling department. Could easily be seriously the best thing this season. |
| Hah, Mahiro back to his her standing being an otaku and playing Guilty Gear, that's the life of a NEET. Mahiro is already having a sex crisis about entering into the world of women, starting with the public baths. And Mihari has to teach her about maintaining things like long hair, before getting into the tub, which brings up memories about sibling time in the baths. Caling Mahiru "Onee-chan" really is a death flag for more girly treatment lols. Mahiro trying to tie her hair into braids, and the small experiment into different hair designs is a feat for Mahiru's records. But wanting to be masculine, Mahiro somehow finds ways to be, but with her executions all flailing, only for her body to rupture into periods, which Mahiro is experiencing mood swings and tummy aches. Now she knows what her own sister is going through, it's a thought that needs tact. |
 |
| Better than the first. It had less fan-service (despite the bath house setting) which I am more than happy for. I think it dragged a bit compared to the manga when it came to the period and I think the setup was done better in the manga. But hey whatever the manga exists still I can read that if I really care enough. |
 |
| the animation in this show is so fluid, it's gorgeous. The sisters interactions are great, and funny most of the time. When Mihari was called Onee chan and she sparkled i lost it Mahiro trying out different hair styles was adorable af solid episode. My "awkward but glorious" anime of the season for sure. |
  |
| lmao cold water, i mean, i can take cold showers if needed, but bath? no ty haha forcing a neet outside of home for a bath, ouch lmao at least he already went outside last episode, so it's not so bad calling him onii-chan in public is not a good idea ... also it's night, it's dangerous outside :v guess we can only have loli fanservice in this anime, since there's only old woman in the bath lols HAHAHAHA i guess sister finally noticed that her older brother is looking at her, look at her hiding is it me or the uncensored version has more censor than it should? :v onii-chan was enjoying the hair wash at first, but... 5 minutes is indeed too much, girls have it tough huh? 7.15 - always fun to watch people in anime drink stuff lol sister was cute when they were younger 8.05 - i've been using a gif of a girl from Lycoris do that, making sounds with a fan wind, it's funny and it fits into chat when i'm trolling haha oh no, that onee-chan will give her diabetes haha the hair band thing is very useful indeed ๐ did he actually start braiding his hair out of nowhere? how cute LOL ofc sister came at that time and got some pictures, can't miss this chance ๐ as someone who has fun taking screenshots of anime hairstyles, this part is nice ๐ we even got a neko pose, kawaii indeed, sister keeps talking about girly clothes and stuff, her turn to dress girly, let's go ๐ LOL she dressed cutely, but he was too busy with his game, she got annoyed haha oh that cat dress reminds me of Illyasviel ๐ฎ (13.50) - also... onimyai ๐ HAHAHA trying to get back his masculinity, he tried to carry the sister, just to drop her and make her hit her head, i can't LOL that sumo wrestling part... wow he can't even do a sit up wonder what happened there, i almost thought he was gonna have a girl monthly thing and ... it seems i might be right lol what happened to the "try to not freak out?" he freaked out haha LOL "if i knew i was gonna die today i would have finished that game sooner, Mihari, it's up to you now" ... dude hahahahaha she even facepalmed ah yes, let's compare the foreign object that man have, to the thing girls use during their bad time "i didn't know you had this every month, without complaining" , my thoughts exactly lol and after such a good sentence, he had to go with the "tell me when it happens" and make her mad haha wow finally over, this took almost an hour with all the prints and comments lol |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |

They really went there.. periods and stuff. I thought I'll stick around but not even a minute anymore. Keep it fun and simple. It's not really difficult. |

| I'm still trying to figure how should I feel about OniMai. It has some funny and catchy moments, but also VERY weird ones. By now, I'm going to accept it as a wacky title for the sake of it. |
 |
| Now they are starting to understand one another. A bath and some playing together can do miracles... |

| Every season we could make a similar anime. It gives me such a good mood so far. Besides, I watch it again many times. |
| yet another anime where parents literally just don't exist, like in yuru yuri. it's a nice, lighthearted show i enjoy it |
slice of life anime, my precious. >3 2D>>>>>> |
| Sento but not what Mahiro was expecting lol, Mahiro getting a period XD |
| Maybe it’s just me but I really dislike the raspiness of Mahiro’s voice. This episode felt like filler. |
