ReLIFE

[anime-fyi]

ReLIFE is a series about a 27 year old man who’s given the chance to be reborn ten years younger and relive a year in high school to correct his life’s direction.

The premise is a fascinating one, reliving a period in your life that, well, might not have been the highlight. High school is such a complicated time to think about, whether you were on the jock or geek end of the spectrum. Friendships, possible relationships, classes, there’s a lot of moving parts. ReLIFE was interesting here because Arata, our main character, went into it thinking it’s be easy, but man does seeing teenagers in action really break that idea apart.

The further in the series you get, the better Arata is at identifying what’s going on, finding resolutions to problems, and just becoming friends with his classmates. It has an authenticity to it, the idea that if you could experience high school with the maturity you have now it might go better.

Running through the cast of classmates, one could argue they’re stereotypical, but there’s enough uniqueness mixed in to make them more than cardboard cutouts. Chizuru is such a woefully socially awkward, kind girl at the beginning and slowly warms through the series. An is that spunky troublemaker you probably knew - or avoided in school. Rena is the too-hard-on-herself one. Kazuomi is the bookworm who is socially competent but relationship blind. Honoka is the born athlete. They each play a role, and they’re each enjoyable enough you pull for them, even when they make you mad.

Yes, what I’ve written gives some points away, but don’t let that deter you from watching the series. It’s a wonderful slice of life, high school series that has enough well written conflict, romance, and all around feelings that you just go away smiling a little after watching it. A good, serious, non-satirical show seems hard to find most seasons, but this is one of them.

Recommended? Yes, absolutely, especially if you’re into a slice of life that delves into solid relationship development, both romantic and friend. This series was wonderfully put together and I really want more seasons.
