ReLIFE
Arata Kaizaki is a man whose life stalled, despite his potential for greatness when he was younger. Once ambitious and driven, he has since stumbled in life and now works at a part time job, eager for another chance to be the best he can be.
That chance comes when he meets Ryō Yoake, a man looking for people to test a new drug capable of reverting their age back by 10 years. In exchange for testing the new drug, the subject will not only regain their appearance from 10 years earlier but will also receive a full time job at the company in charge of creating it. Seeing this as an opportunity to restart his life, Kaizaki agrees to test the new drug and sparks a series of events that will give him and many others a second chance at life.
Filled with laughter one moment and charged with stark realizations of past mistakes the next, ReLIFE is a series with genuine heart that offers a hopeful view of life’s challenges and the struggles one faces to overcome them. Its pseudo-take on time traveling presents plenty of fun for those who enjoyed its use in Erased, and with 17 episodes total, it’s a breezy experience almost anyone can find time to enjoy.
