First of all I'm sorry for my english. I'm no native speaker but I will try my best.

Wow it has been 222 chapters and now ReLIFE is coming to an end.
I remember the first time I saw the Anime and I was completely hooked by it and I needed to know how the hell is this going to continue. And well approximately 120 Chapters into the show- to be more specific, until the end - I think I can say that this Manga was quiet grate and I'm really looking forwards to the OVA coming in 10 days.

But let's get into the detail.

The Story ... was very good and I really loved the idea behind the so-called ReLIFE. I had my thoughts about the concept while reading it and was thinking about, how it would be to have ReLIFE in the actual world. I thought it would definitely help people to get back into Life and restart everything for one year.
The course of the plot was good and I could understand the ideas behind the direction perfectly. There was just one problem. Sometimes the plot was too predictable, but that isn't really a problem. In fact I liked the way how it slowly came to an end and all characters somehow have their own ending.
Another "bad" point is the fact that it's indeed not that deep. Sure there are the questions about the moral of ReLIFE but that's it. But what compensates that, is the fact that the Manga could make me feel really sad the nearer the end came. I just couldn't believe that the manga is going to end soon. But hey at least I really loved the ending of the show. It couldn't possibly be much better and i think with the right soundtrack in the anime adaption I definitely am going to cry about the story end.

The characters definitely were the best in ReLIFE. Without a doubt, I really loved every single character and liked the way how they got integrated into the story. While Yoake is permanently making fun of his subject Arata and also making me laugh sometimes, characters like Arata or Ooga really showed some sides of my own and I thought a lot about how I should live my life to the fullest.

So in the end I recommend ReLIFE to everyone who are searching for a good slice of life, with little romance aspects as well as the What-would-I-do-situations. Also if you are searching for a comedy you should read ReLIFE because the artstyle in combination with the flat humor is really really good. Especially jokes around yoake, onoya, Kaizaki and Oga as well as the social problems of Hishiro are really funny and I definitely enjoyed reading the Manga.

This review will contain spoilers from the first episode to show the stupid mistake the Anime made.

So this will be my first review off all time but I just felt like I need to tell how disappointed I was.

So the story simply starts with the typical shy main character who has nothing to do besides "enjoying" Games. Honestly this was quite an interesting part of the Anime in the first episode and I thought: hey maybe he will get better at gaming and become some very good Gamer.
So I kept watching the first episode and at some point I was really excited like ... a little child because there is a so-named Game-Club. Nothing special you think? Oh I tell you it's an amazing club because the goal of the club is to win tournaments and make money with it. Basically ESPORTS!! I mean there even was a CS:GO copy!

I was like "Yeah an ESports Anime, that's what I was waiting for!
BUT then the main character get asked by his crush (who also is in the Game Club btw.) if he wants to join the club and get better at Gaming.
Guess what his answer was?
IT WAS A F***** NO.

That's the point where I knew this is going to be some stupid rom-com again and not even a special one..
I continued to watch it but it really didn't get any better...So sad
Boring story
poor characters

Well and that's it. You can basically compare the end of the first episode with the plot twist from sao.

So in the end I want to tell you, don't watch it if you expect a good rom-com.
