| so, Yoake also ran into some trouble with his job lol |
| Not bad, was a tad boring though |
| Nice to see some flashbacks this time... I never expected that this show will explore deeper into Relife research... 4/5 |
| A rather boring episode. Hopefully the next one will be better. |
 I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine. |
| From the looks of it, I think Chizuru is the subject 001. Considering the fact they're pushing this ship, meaning that they're trying to make it less creepy as possible. Not to mention that Chizuru is a loner who is observed by Yoake for some reason last episode. |
 |
| This was boring af. |
 |
| I didn't like the musical direction in this episode. That piano was getting on my nerves. |

| I've watched this multiple times now and I still do not know what Ryo meant when he said "Half was the truth and Half was a lie" in episode 6. I mean I think everything An said was the truth, so I'm still confused. |

| Anyone know the name of the piano melody that played in the background while Yoake and An were talking at her place? It was SO cute! |
 |
| Rather normal episode to me. ED Animation: 3/5 ED Song: 3/5 3.1/5 |

| Animation quality is starting to noticeably tank. I'm beginning to come to the conclusion that my enjoyment of this series is directly proportional to the amount of screentime the "adults" get and while this episode essentially broke no new ground, learning more about Yoake's perspective of things was more than interesting enough to carry the episode. Also it's a much needed breather from the relentless drama the show has been throwing at me since the third episode. I do hope the pace picks up from here on out though and maybe there will be some more focus on the more interesting characters like Hishiro and Arata, you know, the fucking MC. |
| Good history episode of what happened for Yoake to get here. I feel bad for Onoya. She really wanted to be Arata's support, but she ended up being supportive for Yoake instead :( Would really love to see what kind of character Test Subject 001 was and see why it is he failed :0 Like maybe he was too worn out or boring or uninterested... |
| I enjoyed the backstories in this episode. I hope we actually get to see 001 An looks so damn nice as an adult |

Lorezhno said: So the goal of ReLife is to give the subjects more confidence? Weird way to go about it; making them ten years younger and sending them back to high school. And if you don't develop how ReLife wants you you don't get the job, which is probably why you agreed in the first place. But they don't tell you what they expect from you. The whole ReLife project thing is also falling apart for me. There were some interesting insights in this EP though, still the pacing was to slow imo. Especially the redundancy with the contract etc. There surely is a better way to explore Yoake without making it so slow and tedious. |
| Was almost filler-ish but it gives us the backstory so i guess not totally a bad thing wonder if An has feelings for ryou, not the biggest shipper for those 2 together :S next ep gonna be the airhead girl it seems |
  |
| Dat flashback. #1 is calling. Arata working. An. Other branches? #1 failed. Ryo was watching Arata. LMAO at Ryo calling An a baban. lol Ryo intentionally didn't tell Arata. PG with another great song. I'd say I wasn't expecting that, but with TMR and L'Arc for example, I'm not surprised. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| A little bit of backstory never hurts, especially since we got to see more of An as well. She is great, probably my favorite of the girls. |
 |
| I really like the OST to this series. Very relaxing & chill 😎 |
| that beginning was pretty leading. Subject #1... Hishiro? I'm SO CURIOUS WHO IT WAS. The wallet test was sweet :-) The repetitive flashback of introducing Kaizaki to ReLife was pretty unnecessary imo, just filler. It was a very slow episode and I felt like it didn't really move the story forward that much. |
| An episode dedicated to Yoake and how he met Kaizaki. It was nice, I guees. At least is better than the pointless Kariu's drama. What happened with Subject 01? |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| An relationship with Ryo turned out to be very good. |
| An is cute. Ah, I guess the reason I'm so fond of her is because character design vaguely looks like Atra from G-Tekketsu. I guess Arata being a shut-in meant few could spot him. And his mother probably stopped contact after saying she won't send him money. Still, I think there must be one person in his previous life as a 27-year old. OMG PORNO GRAFFITI |

| Now I understand why Yoake and Kaizaki made that face when An held Kaizaki's arm in the OP... Sigh... Yare yare... Corporation, in a nutshell, if you try too hard, they tell you to hold back. If you held back, they force you to try harder. What the actual ffffffu- This ep is basically An's and Yoake's backstory along with a few events prior to Kaizaki waking up as with the appearance of a 17-year-old teen. HOWEVER! Didn't he just asked for medicine to alter his appearance to that of a 17-year-old teen?! Wait... What? Did ReLIFE originally just intended for Kaizaki to just enter the university as an adult man? Or maybe I'm just overthinking it... |
  |
| I generally liked it, but the scene where Kaizaki returned to his "adult self" temporarily, and then returned to school life was ridiculous. It wasn't in the manga, and it messed with the "continuity" of the high schooler's memories being forgotten when the program is finished. It's weird that the program would allow something like this... it's not nice when the anime makes up scenes that do not coincide with continuity maintained within the manga. This was my problem with the Steins;Gate OVA (Egoistic Poriomania). But otherwise, it was nice to have a full flashback episode! |
 |
| they could make it a little funnier ;/ I think that this Inukai is subject no1 and something with Kariu or maybe Tamarai that we still don't know. |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
| Nice. Yoake is a nice person after all |
 |
| wow i actually really liked this episode 5/5 for me & i usually get bored of episodes that are flashbacks but this was really well done & so much more interesting! i really prefer this part of the story way much more than their mundane high school happenings - i know the development takes place there & it's integral to the test subjects' experiments but i really like the overall premise & so glad we found out more in this episode! also made me see yoake in a new light, the emotional scenes were great & the OST really stood out this episode actually i've been thinking all along that yoake & an also took the pill or something coz they are the same/around the same age as kaizaki, so how have they been appearing young enough to be a high school student (and he has been one the previous year too)? if kaizaki had to take the pill to "appear younger" is an just donning a simple disguise of pigtails & geeky spectacles? i don't get it. they just look young??? and kaizaki doesn't? he's the same age???? ok scratch that my point exactly why this episode is great they even answered that i just realised their adult selves are kinda cute ehe. wish the character designs were a little more distinct i actually still can't really tell the ages apart & oga & yoake apart, apart from their hair/colour lol |

 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Goddamn information and flashback episode. But it had its fair share of usefulness. I think this was ok. |
| A flashback episode but fully from the perspective of Yoake, showcasing his struggles with the first test subject and furthermore, how he met Arata and became his support as Arata prepared to become the next test subject for the ReLIFE project with hopefully much better results. The show hasn't gone enough to the reporting side of the story as it focused more on flying through the content and focusing on the characters that Arata bonds with, so this was in a sense, a much needed episode to build on the project side of things despite the rushed and thrown in nature of it. I'm still enjoying the anime a lot but 24 episodes at least, definitely sounds better than 17 for this show (including the final arc episodes too). Also, rate the ED song choice again with the Porno Graffiti track. Classic banger as usual. |
| Glad to see Yoake's backstory, I like him. So I guess the failed subject wasn't An, but it seems like it doesn't matter who she was, story-wise. I was starting to believe that Chizuru was the subject since they were both in the class last year and he said the subject ended up not doing anything, but it doesn't make sense why she would still be young. I still didn't get why Yoake was so sad after the failed subject since he wasn't fired for it given that he got to be the support again. I guess he wanted the subject to succeed, but failed. |

Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| This was an interesting episode. We get to know a little more about Yoake and how things went with the previous experiment. Good episode overall!!!! |
| I'm just glad that Yoake recognized Kaizaki's good nature from their first encounter, tho it made it that much more sad how he turned out. A certain someone keeps being guessed to be 001 but imagine if it were a curveball all along like Oga, that volleyball captain or that sporty guy that simps for her. |
| Ok this ep was some informative for future events |
