Review of ReLIFE

"Re-LIFE", the title speaks for itself. Well, I'll try to explain as deliberate as I could, well not much but it's still a review. Story : If we ask people around, most of them really wanted to return and live their lives as a student, and this anime just created from that very idea. If we look back, maybe school days are something that we could not take it back, so this anime again, teaches us to appreciate every moment because we could not return. I'm currently 22 and I left school like maybe 5 years now. But somehow, I can relate, although not as much asthis anime is but everyone has their own school lives. This anime deliberately talks about the "what if" we could go back being a student again, like how the support told Kaizaki, maybe this could be a chance to correct yourself and correct your life all over. In real life, it's sad indeed, not only in Japan but maybe the whole world, facing this very same problem, where the real world maybe way crueler but this series just talks about some of it. So this story really fits with what they wanted to tell, as in, maybe by watching this, we might can say, "I did see that coming". Well, not gonna talk much but overall, it's realistic how they relate real life in this series and combining the "what-if" moment makes this anime with some comedic moments deserves a 10 but I gave it a 9 because well not gonna say, but I don't really like the ending, it can be made better actually. At least, this anime is pure story no fan service is something I crave for (romance that is).

Art :
As expected, the airing year is 2016, of course the artwork's nice. I like how they put quite a detail on every character.

Sound :
The soundtrack is perfect for every ending. Like, it all comes down to the story and how the plot goes from the very first episode. I like how they choose the song Button by Penguin Research as the opening. It starts off slow but boom, "..sayonara nante niawanai.." I just love it.

Character :
This category eh, yes, it fits like seriously, how all of us look like while we were in school back in the days. So I'm not gonna say much but I think it's fine.

Enjoyment :
I enjoyed this very much. I even struggle stopping myself not to finish this in one go because the anime itself really reels me in.

Overall :
This anime is something that I crave for as a romance genre fan, not with some stupid fan service to bring with. Yes, I know romance always leads to sex or fan service but not all of us wanted to watch fan service as "plot". Pure story, in these modern times of anime is actually decreasing. I watch anime for entertainment so I want to get entertain not to make me feel lustful. I hope for the anime community make more anime like this, pure story, pure romance without fan service or ecchi. I recommend this to those of you are hardcore romance fan. Well the romance isn't exactly start early but you'll get there as you watch.
