Kensho Ono (Kuroko no Basket's Kuroko, Magi's Hakuryu Ren) will star in the series as Arata Kaizaki, and Ai Kayano (anohana's Menma, Your Life in April's Nagi Aizato) will co-star as Chizuru Hisiro. The show will also star Ryohei Kimura as Ryou Yoake, Reina Ueda as An Onoya, Yuma Uchida as Kazuomi Ouga, and Haruka TOmatsu as Rena Kariu.

 

 

The manga's story revolves around Arata Kaizaki, an unemployed, single 27-year old who has just been cut off from his parent's financial support. Unable to find a job due to his leaving his previous employer within three months, he is stuck. One night after drinking with a high school friend, Arata meets Ryo Yoake, a man who offers Arata pills to turn him back into a 17-year old so he can redo his life. After agreeing to the experiment, Arata joins a high school class, and meet Chizuru Hishiro, a socially awkward silent beauty who yearns to have friends. Through connecting with her and other classmates, Arata must find what he lacks to live a happy life in the real world within a one-year time limit.

 

Tomo Kosaka (episode animation director for Giant Killing, Yowamushi Pedal) is directing the anime, and Kazuho Hyodo (Himegoto, Wanna Be the Strongest in the World, Big Windup!) and Michiko Yokote (Shirobako, Princess Tutu, Big Windup!) are in charge of the series scripts. Junko Yamanaka (Kamisama Kiss, Servamp) is adapting Yayoiso's character designs for animations.

 

TMS Entertainment is producing the adaptation, and the "ReLIFE Kenkyujo" (Laboratory) is the production committee.

 

Yayoiso began her manga on the Comico free manga app in 2013, and it was green-lit for physical publication in 2014. Taibundo released the manga's fifth complied volume on February 12, and the physical complied volumes have more than 1 million copies in print.
