    PENGUIN RESEARCH is performing the opening theme song, and a different musical act will perform the ending theme song in each episode. The staff is aiming for songs that the character Kaizaki could have listened to on an MD during his high school days in the late 1990's and early 2000's. Voice actress Yūma Uchida hinted that T.M. Revolution might perform one of the ending theme songs.

    As previously announced, the anime will star:
    Kensho Ono (Kuroko's Basketball's Kuroko, Magi's Hakuryū Ren) as Arata Kaizaki, who is 27 years old and unemployed.

    The manga's story revolves around Arata Kaizaki, an unemployed, single 27-year-old who has just been cut off from his parents' 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 Ryō 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 meets 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 animation.

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

    The ReLIFE anime will premiere on Japanese television in July.

    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 compiled volume on February 12, and the physical compiled volumes have more than 1 million copies in print. Crunchyroll is releasing the manga in English digitally.
