The anime portrays before us the two realities that marks the transformation from the life of high school to the life of an adult who is basically a NEET and condemned by the society for not being able enough to work his/her way out. The portrayal of the two dimensions of the life and the very nature of the RElife experiment shows that how the shift in the attitude of a person takes place when the transaction from the life of a high schooler to adulthood takes place. The straightforward and friendly person like Kiazaki suffers from betrayal and the cruel and harsh treatment of the society forgetting the fact that other person is also a human and needs help and reliance on others. Hishiro has completely independent personality and since she does not know how to get along well with other people she gets bully for being too selfcentered instead of helping her to get along with others just like in high school. The stark contrast has been shown between the two worlds and how reliving the moments of early life can bring drastic changes in the personality of the individual. It is perfectly okay to enjoy the moments and make as many memories as a person wants instead of overthinking about the future. Living in the moment is the best possible solutions to every problems that comes with worrying about the future and its consequences. Making best use of the present time and enjoying and feeling both the happiness and the sorrows of the life are important components of the life. The anime highlights this feature of life a lot that it is okay to be interested in anyone it is okay to feel sad and dejected sometimes the feeling of enjoying and living and making the best part of your every moment is what matters and the people may vanish from the lives but memories remain and can be lived and relived through experiences. It is okay to not rush through things but feel them naturally confirm them for ones own benefit and act on them in a natural way learning and growing each and every day of the life. Even though the person will vanish and the present moment is only an illusion but it is definitely okay to let it have a chance and live the moment to the very fullest. I really like the way Hishiro is trying to understand herself and says that another emotion is spurring inside her when she was avoiding Arata to confirm her own feelings and gain a different perspective. The moment she decided to ask Arata for date was cute. The message were too formal to be perceived as asking for date. Arata and Hishiro are always trying to carry things out from other persons perspective to not harm the feelings or destroy the memories of the other person which is a really thought provoking perspective of both of them. But personally I think that the experiment in its very nature reveal the cruel fact that with the passage and sweep of time we tend to forget the most important people in our lives that make the most part of us. But we should never give up in connecting the dots together and trying to understand things while living in the moment at the same time. Good things are bound to happen because time is not always bad. The one thing that piqued my interest was the reason Kaizaki took the job to work in the experiment as well to make the people who have given up on themselves to be liberated from their sadness and make them relive the moments they once cherished giving them the confidence they once had.
