    Since Crunchy decided to upload all the episodes, I decided to marathon it in one go and really liked it xD Have any of you guys seen it yet/ what did you think?
     
    I have seen 10 episodes of it and holy crap this is so good! I didn't expect much from it but it turned out to be a very pleasant watch!

    Still 3 more episodes to go but I really like how they've handled most of the cast. They all seem very human instead of one-dimensional cardboard cutouts you usually see in anime. And the comedy is very simple yet effective - keeps things light. Made me laugh occasionally and usually had a smile on my face for a majority of the episode's runtime. <3;

    Loving the characters so far, too. Just hoping it ends with a decent conclusion.
    Also, OP is great. Love it. :D
     
    I WAS SO CONFUSED WHEN I SAW ALL EPISODES WERE OUT.

    Anyway, I just watched the first episode so far, but it seems to be quite original and funny, I'll leave my comments later.

    It IS! It is really funny. A bit of drama in the middle but it gets resolved without things getting ugly or dragged out. Really liked that about this series. And stays consistently funny, too. Did you end up completing it? :b

    I've been wanting to start watching more anime. I'll give this one a go tonight since all the episodes are out.

    DO EET! This is a pretty nice series. Looking forward to your impressions if you decide to give it a go. :b

    This was a really nice series. Was much, MUCH better than I was expecting it to be when I went into it. Characters were endearing, art was nice, comedy was on point and the overall story was good! :D

    I should marathon this one, I remember reading the web comics years ago, gotta get caught up since the premise was fascinating :)

    Heard the webcomic is pretty slow when it comes to the pacing. This adaptation went through like 100 chapters in 13 episodes and it felt organic. Didn't feel rushed at all XD;

    Overall, I'll just say that I ended up loving the series a lot. Would gladly discuss it here if more people ended up watching it :b For now though, thinking of picking up the manhwa. Apparently chapter 101 is where I need to start from. But only 136 chapters out. I'll catch up in no time and that kinda sucks ;;
     
    I binged this over a few days and I must say I am glad I did. I really liked the show - the concept was interesting and was executed well. I liked the cast and at times felt that I could relate to the show in some ways.

    Hope to see a second season in the future.
     
    I came into this yesterday expecting it to be enjoyable but average. I have just finished it and I found it extremely enjoyable. It was funny consistently, had extremely likeable characters, the art was lovely and over all the story was both interesting and well executed. This one really exceeded my expectations. Love an anime that can make you think and feel whilst keeping you laughing too.
     
    I watched ReLIFE a little later then I wanted too but I finally watched it a few days ago.
    I found that ReLIFE had some elements similar to Erased and there was a lot of suspense. The relationships between the characters is very well done and they feel real.
    One thing they did right, imo is that not all the charcters are in a big group of freinds. It really gives time for other relationships to form between the charaters.

    Overall, I really enjoyed watching ReLIFE! 9/10

    I'm 11 episodes in, I'm not sure I want it to end. Most of the characters are so charming and real.
    It's been a while since I enjoyed a romance comedy this much (to be exact since My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU).

    I also loved the changing endings :D
