Hilarious first episode, the reactions and expressions of the MC were so natural and funny.
It was a nice episode, and I enjoyed it. Well, how could not with lines like "Was there really a time I understood all this?" referring to the subjects of the test jajaja. I could relate. With this first episode I know there will be much lines and moments like that that will make me smile because I can relate to that. Hell, the Job life is not easy, but the student life was hard too! jajaja.

Well, we already have to confirmed characters to be adults, the MC and the blonde guy... oh god, more names... I'm bad with names =_=


PD: The MC should have asked if it was legal to approach that girl... jaja. I mean, it was a good legitimate question.

Hmm, this show seems to have very good start with some great plot going on.
It's interesting coincidence that he was put into third year where students are mainly searching for their job.

Ok, some of my observations:

- Either he is dreaming everything up because of alcohol or he will hold great regret when he needs to leave them in the end.
- I strongly believe he's not the only one who was relifed. I wonder if there are other people even in his classroom, for now An seems to be the most fitting candidate but she doesn't have to be the only one. Would be actually quite funny if whole class was relifed.
- What was that weird flasback when he talked to the teacher? Was the black-haired girl the real reason why he quit his job back then? Coincidently could this girl be Chizuru? (same hairstyle)
- And how come he's subject number 2? Does that mean Ryou was overseeing another student last year who failed to stop being NEET after the project?

Anyway, can't wait to see those answers.

I honestly have no idea about the story or plot when I first watched it. But I'm surprised that they made a 27 years old into a high schooler. It's a really funny episode.

I somehow think that the genius girl is actually an adult, which is why she's smart.

Didn't particularly laugh at any of the jokes, and I found the concept to be creepy and illogical.
So, this show is about a secret organization who created a pill that makes you younger, and they put Neets to Relive their high school years.

That just gives me a lot of questions. Also, Ryo creeps me out.

just started watching ep1 from [FFF] BD subs!
The OP artist is the same as the OP of Sinbad recent anime...
it was an OKAY start!
A NEET whose given a chance to restart his life as a high school student and see if he could change things like for example not being a NEET anymore.
As for me, I would really hate to go back mathematics class for real! that's a real nightmare for me and thesis and programming! OMG real life! I want escapism and not be a NEET but a chuuni! LOLZ!
4/5.

This is hilarious and pretty lighthearted at the same time. Though there's pressure to the MC sure, I do love how it's starting out. I should've watched this earlier so I could stay motivated on watching anime.

From the first episode i found it appealing in many ways, the characters are interesting the story keeps you engaged as Arata begins his journey to restructure his life & the mystery factor of the pill, also the tone of appeal the majority of us can appeal to such as everyday life it does great in the slice of life aspect and the show has some funny moments that killed me looking forward to it with hopes of it getting even better

Really cool concept in my opinion. I enjoyed this episode a lot, and I don't mind that it's completely unrealistic and unlikely. I just kind of hope that it isn't too easy for him to get good friends and, as the tags suggest, a romance. That would take the unrealistic thing a little too far imo.

This was very fun. I'll excuse the pill's effect because it is anime after all. I'm hoping this maintains its comedic tone and if it wants to have a Dramatic undertone I don't mind it either. I just mainly enjoyed it because of how funny it was.

I thought the first episode was really good and really funny. i haven't read the manga. It's a shame that it is being rushed as some people said.
The story so far is great. I think it's interesting how he is getting to start his life over again. The ending theme is catchy.
Let's see what the next episode is like.

This was very interesting and a lot of fun to watch. I don't think I have ever watched something like that. Crazy to think about if this would ever happen to yourself. I wonder how I would react to it. :D

Arata is the typical neet guy. No work, lying to his friends about what he's really doing, sponsored by his parents etc. This is the best chance to change his life, even if the first day in school didn't went well haha. I had a lot of laughs because it's weird but funny at the same time.

God that conversation between Arata and his teacher was hilarious, especially because he's older lol.

So Ryou is his personal observer for the whole year. I'm so curious what will happen after that year and how Arata will do in school.

Looking forward to see more. :)

PS: really like the OP!

Havent read the manga, but pilot looks promising. Although I would like to have a bit more character exposition in further episodes and whats the deal with the ReLife project. Who is behind that and whatnot.

As said, I don't know the manga, but a pilot has also to hook viewers like me and I think it did an ok job. If the manga starts really slow you just cant translate it 1:1 into an anime cause just the manga fans would watch it. Give it a few more episodes and you will see if it is well done after all.

Seems interesting so far, and the comedy bits were quite good as well.

I enjoyed the first episode a lot, but I haven't read the manga.

I can't wait for Kaizaki's character development and how it'll change his life. I'm such a sucker for these kinds of things.

Favorite characters at first glance: Kaizaki, Rena.

I didn't like the start so much. The comedy is a bit silly and forced. At least the animation is good and the characters are tolerable. The whole thing about the mysterious pill is weird lol.

And here we go (again)! Cant believe its already 2 1/2 years since I first watched this. Kinda ironic considering what ReLife is about.

I did not remember it was this cringy, but I guess thats my fault.

Why are teachers in anime always this concerned about their students, especially when it comes to smoking (at school). Is it just for anime or is it a cultural thing? When I was like 15 or 16 and my teacher caught us smoking all she did was saying "dont do it again" and then she even gave us the cigarettes back after the school trip.

Glad to be back to this show!

I do believe the manga form is superior and I should rather re-go through that instead but I’ve been away from manga for a while now, so guess there’s no helping that.

It’s a great fun first episode, pity that it’s a little to the rushed side however leaving aside some crucial developments and the sort. Comedic scenes are on point, my favourite being the “bruh, chill” reaction to the cigarette pack scene, but the use of OST’s is a little iffy to say the least. Pretty solid introduction to the MC, Kaizaki, and the flashback to
was very well-timed! Interesting little bombshell in the end with “failed 1st test”, I remember being a little shocked over that earlier but it just gives off a totally different melancholy feeling now.

Definitely ecstatic to go through the remaining 12 (16 including the OVAs) episodes!

Same here, it’s been a long three years since my first watch and it’s kinda ironic indeed lol.

Ah yes... A show I always wanted to watch due to its unique premise.
OP and ED is quite nice, quite typical but still nice...

The first day of school and Kaizaki totally messed up HARD. Embarrassed himself multiple times, accidentally labelling himself as a smoker, being unprepared to carry basic items and failing the test. If I know one thing about high school, especially the last year of it is that he needs to get going, study and adapt to this new life he has that is if he does not want to fail.

Aside from that, damn that girl with the glasses is hella cute!

Seems like there's someone who has undergone the experiment before Kaizaki himself huh... My mind is telling me that this person is in the same class as Kaizaki though I don't know who.

Nice and funny start, but I liked the start as he was 27 and was kinda happy to watch anime about mature people, but then this about high school ;S I forgot about what this anime is and just started to watch it so it surprised me :D

Gonna reread the manga after rewatching the anime for the full experience but I have to say, seeing this after nearly 4 years, I had a good time watching this. Sure it was pretty fast but it was also really entertaining too with some absolute golden reactions by Kaizaki throughout as he panics through the first day of his ReLIFE project by fucking up many things at school, especially with being caught with cigarettes (which while is fine for his real age, isn't quite fine for the new ReLIFE age as a high school student). Fun stuff.
