Let's be true to ourselves, once in our lives as adults, We really like to escape the reality and go back to the past where we are highschool students. Some may think that if he would go back to high school, he would choose the things that would really suit him/her. Maybe things like not breaking up with the one we love in the past or doint things right for the secondtime in out life. and that's what ReLife is.
ReLife is written and drawn by YAYOI Sou and moreof a webcomic rather than a typical manga you would see in a shounen magazine. ReLife is story of Kaizaki Arata, an average 27 year old man who was jobless because of some events happened in his past work. He was offered to be research subject mysterious pharmaceutical research institute. And what would be the reasearch?Somthing like a pill that would make you younger that you would look like a high schooler again. The offer was something within a year being a subject , he would be given a full compensation and that after being a subject he would be given a referral to his a company.
ReLife offers something that people young and adult would really enjoy reading it. The young ones would really appreciate this because issues regarding school that sometime not even talked within friends and family were brought up. Issues like bullying, friendship and even about love. What the young ones could looked here is what would the adults do if they were in that scenario. The lessons that you would get here is somewhat realistic.
The adults would also really enjoy reading this because of imagining something like going to high school is somewhat a reality to many adults. Some may say that it would be amazing since you would really stand out since you've already studied it. But the thing is, subjects in high school were tend to be forgotten by many after finishing college, right? You know you've also said this once in you younger years: "I will be _______, what would the subject _______ would do me any good if my job is _______." This is just some reasons that the manga makes the adult realistic. Or even being in love to high schooler (14-18y/o) while you know you are a 27-30 year old man/woman is morally wrong(that is if your somewhat a lolicon or a pedoxxx..hehe).
Also adults, would also see things that would help them up to what they face in reality. Things or events that may end up us adults thinking to end our lives. This manga also shows how cruel bullying in the corporate world is.
To wrap this up, Relife focuses more on the thinking of the people in the corporate world and young people in the high school world. I truly recommend this to be read by high school students for them to know what people in the real adult world would do or say in a high school problems. and I would also recommend this to people who would were currently stressed in their own corporate jobs. This would also can be great stress reliever for you.
