Review of ReLIFE

I feel like this concept had some promise and that promise was squandered throughout the series. After the first few episodes the focus shifts from examining an adult in a high school classroom to just another generic high school slice of life. Most of the latter half of the episodes aren't even focused on our main character, several episodes star other high school kids dealing with some very worn out plot points. It's very disappointing, honestly. There's so much that could have been done with the relife program, or just the idea of an adult pretending to be a teenager. Almost all of that materiel wasleft mostly untouched.

If you're a fan of the standard high school drama slice of life and you'd like to see one with a mild twist away from the norm, you'd probably really enjoy this show.

If you're looking for something unique, or were expecting this show to mostly be about the adult in the teenager's body, this show will leave you more disappointed than satisfied.
