ReLife
Anime Like Toradora
Toradora’s mix of romance, drama, and slice of life is what fans really love about it, and those are all categories that ReLife falls into, but with a twist. Arata Kaizaki is a 27-year-old man who’s lost his job and fallen on hard times. A strange offer from something known as the ReLife lab gives him a second chance, a pill that’ll make him look 17 again and a research project that puts him back in high school.
Arata’s induction back into high school is played to great comedic effect, and he has a heck of a time fitting in. On top of that, the student body he meets are certainly an eclectic cast of characters who each have their own quirks. ReLife may not be as much of a romance as Toradora, but it still has similar comedic and dramatic elements, as Arata grows unlikely friendships with his classmates, all while struggling with the secret he’s hiding.
