>high school is the best and most important part of anyone's

>>143615094

But it's true.

>>143615178
I don't know about you, anon, but in my time the average high schooler was borderline retarded. I got top grades by simply listening during class and doing all my homework. If I had to re-do high school, I'd fucking wreck everyone. That's not even considering the amount of wisdom and skills in social interaction I have gained over the years.

>you're some 27 year old NEET? If you went back to high school, you'll be failing all your classes and be inferior to literally everyone.
I would though

High school, meh. If I could go back, I'd relive undergrad 100% of the time. Definitely the highpoint.

>>143615094
>If you went back to high school, you'll be failing all your classes and be inferior to literally everyone. High schoolers are simply that incredible!
I was already superior (academically) to everyone in highschool, so i can't really relate to that.
But on the contrary there's so much stuff wrong about my personal relationships/romance interactions that even 14 years old kids are more skilled than me, so that's that

>>143615094
highschool or pre adulthood having the best times in your life is a universal notion

>>143615773

Mid 20's.
>How much have you evolved socially since high school?
A fuck ton. I'm practically a completely different person in comparison to my high school self. If I could see my high school self, I'd probably kick hiss ass for being such a pussy. That's why I can't relate to this shit at all.

>>143615094
>High schoolers are treated as some sort of gods who possess power and knowledge beyond human comprehension.
No, they're good at studying while an adult has little need of studying and thus forgets everything that isn't critical to their job.

In fact if you had even bothered watching the anime you'd know that while they're book smart, they still lack life experience and act childish, ending up getting lectured by the more mature Arata. There are some things only adults with real life experience know, even if it isn't "book smarts".

>be pretty fucking smart and get into learning pretty easily
>end up having absolutely inferior social skills
>never look back on high school with fond memories or good friends to look back on it with

Why the fuck does it always have to be like this? Just thinking about how fucking unfair such a fate is really irritates me. It pisses me off that I can't fucking do anything about this.

>>143615094
>high schoolers are the most wise, intelligent, attractive, and perfect people in existence!

They can't even sort their feelings out and just created a big ball of misunderstanding till the MC helped out. MC might not be smart but at least he's wiser than the normal students in the series

>>143615883
>I'm practically a completely different person in comparison to my high school self.

I envy you anon. How'd you do it?

Are you actually telling us you don't find high schoolers attractive?

>>143615697
He's not even really a NEET. He's trying his hardest to get a proper job and keeps a part-time job at least.

He just got fucked by life and ended up in a shitty situation at a shitty workplace and nip society shows no mercy to people who quit, no matter the circumstances because they assume everyone is a beta, ball-less faggot.

He had the balls to speak up and got fucked by society for it. He's in no way a loser.

>>143616043
Moving out of my parents' place to attend uni in a different city. If you can fully control your life, you can actually make meaningful changes and work towards your goals. Even then it takes years of effort to change your personality and life outlook. That sense of helplessness and lack of control you get when you live by somebody else's rules is one of the worst things out there for personal growth.

Japan's work scene really sucks. Is the end game only working at a desk job? That's the way it always seems in anime.

>>143616307
That's pretty much what the average nip ends up doing. It's all about which company you can manage to get accepted by, not the job task itself.

>>143615094
>high schoolers are the most wise, intelligent, attractive, and perfect people in existence!
Are you fucking retarded? Half the show was the adult solving all the teenagers problems

>>143615094

You know, you don't have to take the plot so seriously. But hey, it's your life.

>>143616415
That's what made the show to me. It wasn't as much about his own return to highschool as it was about the effects having an adult around immature highschool kids to set them straight as "one of them" had on their lives.

>>143615094
>you'll be failing all your classes
Well, no shit. If you didn't study it for your career would you remember all those trigonometric functions? Historical names/dates? Grammatical cases?

I graduated from highschool a year ago and the stuff i haven't needed for university is mostly gone from my head.

>>143615697
>MC is NHK-tier loser
I'm happy he wasn't. He's just a normal dude down on his luck and there's nothing wrong with that.

>>143616533

This, Kaizaki sorting that bullshit with Redhead was tops. Too bad his beloved senpai offed herself before getting poon

it's the most blantant wish fullfilment I've seen in recent memory.

it's like isekai with even less creativity.

>>143616533
I feel like people are too quick to judge the show based on the premise alone. It was all handled pretty well and the MC was great.

>>143616618
His work senpai caught me off guard to be honest. I didn't expect it to get so dark out of nowhere.

>>143616671
This shit is becoming annoyingly common. Just shit otakus being taking places or times when they can get puss and achieve shit.

I feel like people of my generation are feeling profoundly lost in life right now. I'm a 27 year old premed student and christ I wish I could go back to when I was 17 and tell myself to hurry the fuck up and get going.

>>143616788
It's the fucking Boomers fault. I'm telling you.

>>143615883
Seriously. I'd have nothing to do with my high school self.

>>143616788
Well, in this case the MC isn't a shitty NEET otaku. He's a hard-working, sociable man who got fucked by society for daring to stand up to the bullshit pulled by his workplace.

Isn't this what the anime did? There was too much autistic NEET MC in the past really, that this type of MC would just be pigeonholed to the same category and that's sad.

>>143617127
Yeah this isn't entirely unrealistic considering his superior life experience at that point.

>>143616248
Don't you see, they're trying to teach him his place in Japanese society?

Honestly, the premise is painful and makes no sense. Going back to high school will accomplish nothing if you go back to your old age after.

>>143617237
There is advice only adults can give, but there is also advice people are only willing to get from close friends.

>>143617300
It's about helping him overcome his trauma and guaranteeing him a stable job if everything turns out well, not about "teaching him his place"

>>143615356
>If I had to re-do high school, I'd fucking wreck everyone.

No you wouldn't. There's no guarantee you are on top of the pecking order. At my high school, the smart people stayed away from those at the top of the pecking order. If you got involved, you got burned almost all the time (slave for all their homework, money source, etc). I remember being stabbed with a pencil for not obeying better (bad attitude at being ordered).

>>143617300
>Don't you see, they're trying to teach him his place in Japanese society?

Wouldn't this experiment just have the opposite effect and have more confidence that what he did before was right all along?

>>143617127
But isn't that also kinda the point?

He got traumatized when he tried to help somebody because it ended it worst way possible.

Having him regain his confidence in his abilities to help others and overcome the past is pretty much the best outcome.

>>143615094
>High schoolers are treated as some sort of gods who possess power and knowledge beyond human comprehension
Where did you get that from? The Japanese worship high school life because life after it is just shit. No matter what you study in college you will probably end up just as a salaryman who works from morning till night and have just have drinking meetings with your Coworkers. You can't go to club activities, you can't make new friends and experience love for the first time, you also can't work with your club memebers on some exciting project for the school festival etc. You will get freedom when you become an adult but you will eventully get tired of your free time and become just an empty company employer who just work and drink alcohol at night.

>>143617431
Yeah, and it makes sense that way, which was my point. The premise really doesn't do the show justice because it's handled in a very good way. It's way too easy to judge it prematurely.

>>143617443
>You can't go to club activities, you can't make new friends and experience love for the first time, you also can't work with your club members on some exciting project for the school festival

Too bad, my school curriculum didn't have any of those. Fuck Catholic school.

A BUNCH OF 27 YEAR OLD ADULTS ARE PRETENDING TO BE STUDENTS
if the parents of the kids knew about this they'd throw a national fucking tantrum.

everyone in japan knows everyone wants to fuck a highschool girl. it's some creepy ass shit with these adults deceiving all the kids and teachers.

>>143617364
He was not guaranteed a stable job out of this. If anything, this might just make him become a teacher. Unless he decides to change his career, he has to go back to being a shitty Japanese salaryman.

>>143617650
No, they guaranteed him a job after his ReLIFE period ends as long as the experiment went well.

>>143615952
At least you're smart, anon.
Try being a stupid fuck like me who had barely average grades and no friends.
Not to mention the fact that I can't get a decent job and everyone who knows me thinks I'm a fucking failure.

Not really.
It's japan, they are weird.
I would like to relive my university days though.

>>143617571

Now you know why Kaizaki wouldn't try to trigger any flags with any of them. That's the main conflict for his feelings towards 001

>>143617775
Kinda wish he would get together with An instead after the ReLIFE period.

>>143617775
yes, you get one viewpoint. I'm talking about the viewpoint of everyone that's being deceived! no one would stand for this creepy shit.

>>143617677
Guess I missed that part. For a while I was confusing Oga and the supervisor, clearly this isn't keeping my attention strongly.

This anime is supposed to appeal to people who have regrets and who want to do their high school over I guess.

>>143615094
>Does this piss off anyone else?

I quicklyt tired of his over the top reactions to everything. I forgot this? Scream ultra loud 10000 times! I forgot a pen? Scream ultra loud one billion times. I forgot something else. Yell out loud and stop paying attention in class. Daydreaming? Thinking about other things than getting the school day done?

He's less mature than quite a few sixth graders I remember some of whom already cleaned house, mowed the yard, didn't scream and shout at every setback, etc. And age doesn't help NEETS because the older they get, the more they forget. I bet lots of NEETs cannot even remember what a quadratic equation is. I clearly remember that was standard stuff taught to all students in middle school (junior high grades 7 to 8). We already had beginning calculus in 8th grade.

It's been many years since I've been in school, but from what I understand, school courses have been watered down year after year as teachers and their unions got lazier and lazier. Even before No Child Left Behind Act, classes had not only had class sizes reduced from the 40 to 50 students per class when I was there to be 30 at most and 20 in some as the daughter of one friend said. They just don't make teachers like they used to. The smart schools still expect a lot of their smart dedicated persistent students who have work ethic. But far too many schools now seem to cater to getting students out the door and to babysit some of them that don't care about learning.

>>143615094
>find out about the anime today
>never read the manga either
>start reading it
>the teacher immediately zeroes in on him and singles him out

Seriously, what the fuck? With how Japanese schools are, what kind of teacher knowingly tries to start that shit on someone's first day at a school?

>>143615094
but AraAra is clearly more mature than everyone, he's just forgotten most of the irrelevant shit you learn in school

>>143617923
>We already had beginning calculus in 8th grade.

Clearly not American.

>>143617927
Welcome to Japan where that shit happens all the time. Also his fault for agreeing to let her look through his bag only for there to be a pack of smokes which is kind of a big deal.

>>143615094
>High school is the best and most important part of anyone's life!
the show kinda shows that a lot of times it's the exact opposite, but that it's crucial for emotional growth fro many people.
>high schoolers are the most wise, intelligent, attractive, and perfect people in existence!
wat.jpg
>If you went back to high school, you'll be failing all your classes and be inferior to literally everyone.
Believable enough for english, math, sciences, and history, though not so much for how many times he failed that shit. You barely use any of that information that you learned in high school so your brain just throws most of it out the fucking window. His scores really were horrendous next to what they should have been, but failing is kind of expected.

>>143617927
Wasn't it because he pulled out a cigarette pack in class? Also MC quickly solved his beef with the teacher because he is not socially incapable retard.

>>143617927
This is a happy school where there's no heavy atmosphere, except some girl drama that is very specific to relationships.
There's no consequence here, it's not to be taken seriously.

Main character throws a ball 1 metre in sports and doesn't even get bullied. It's played for laughs.

>>143617680
A lot of your problem is due to the huge gap between the wealthy and everyone else. People such as you have to make your personal fortunes out of the piece of pie not owned or inherited by the wealthy. When the top 10% have approx 75%, it's no wonder that you cannot have much to your name.

>>143617923
>This anime is supposed to appeal to people who have regrets and who want to do their high school over I guess.
Not even close. The anime is about Arata trying to help these hormonal, emotionally stunted fucks realize that shit isn't so bad and that they have friends they can rely on. Nothing about the anime appeals to redoing his high school years, especially since he is 100% unspectacular in every way aside from being able to guide other characters towards making the right choices.

>>143618174
He does get made fun of, and his friends is never gonna make him live it down.

>>143615094
>high school is the best and most important part of anyone's life!
True for some people

>high schoolers are the most wise, intelligent, attractive, and perfect people in existence!
Ok, now that's bullshit

>you're some 27 year old NEET? If you went back to high school, you'll be failing all your classes and be inferior to literally everyone. High schoolers are simply that incredible!
Failing all of my classes, yes that's possible since I wouldn't remember shit, but be inferior than anyone else? Again, bullshit.

>>143617688
>lol what the fuck is this piece of shit school you go to

At my former high school in the southwest USA near the border with mexico, my freshman class had 1100 students. My graduating senior class had 121 students. I had the misfortune of living on the wrong side of town with the minorities. We had high school students who could barely speak or write english and no, they were not mexicans although we had a lot of them too.

So is scientist's guess right? Will 001 and 002 forget about each other when the experiment is over? Or do you think they will keep their memories once the year is up? (assuming one of them doesn't fuck it up by accidentally revealing their identity to the other).

I would beat the ever living shit out of me as well

I knew very little boxing but never took it serious just enough to get rid of the bullies and it helped but I was such a idiot to myself, never cared about my homework just got enough to pass and never took care of my body

I didn't even bother trying to find a job back when my family at the time needed it most and were paying for everything

I'm only 4 years removed from high school but I wish I have done more to help myself and others. That is all in the past anyway

>>143618296
either way the tone of the series is lighthearted.

the guy i responded to seemed to be worrying about the consequence of the teacher singling out the MC.

How? What country are you from?

School and puberty.. what a horrible time that was.
Who the hell would want to repeat something like that?

>>143615094
I don't know how Jap college is, but from what I've seen I think its pretty depressing compared to its murican counterpart. I'm thinking of NHK and Genshiken (colleges portrayed as bleak, brutality, run down, dark places)

It might be because they're mostly commuter schools but I don't know shit about the uni Jap experience.

>>143618584
Its almost like every single anime nowadays is an advertisement for the source material.

It is in Japan. Learn to deal with that.

Other than attractive, the show specifically shows you how stupid and ignorant these kids can be.

>you're some 27 year old NEET? If you went back to high school, you'll be failing all your classes and be inferior to literally everyone. High schoolers are simply that incredible!
You probably would be failing if you hadn't touched any of that work in a decade. He was in sales so almost none of his high school education was involved in his daily life.

He's 27, meaning he has been out of high school for around 9 years. Assuming he didn't do any college, you'd easily forget all of that crap that's not relevant in a salaryman's job.

Here you go anon, this is pretty close to one of the examples that was shown in both the anime and is shown in 3rd year high school math curriculum for Japanese students.

This is basic logic, so without looking anything up, you should be able to solve this.

>>143621094

>>143620185

I suspect that he took some business or accounting track in college, where all you really need is arithmetic and reading graphs and charts.

Then he got dropped in a prep school for more STEM-oriented universities and the math is orders of magnitudes harder.

>>143621094
I took Calculus course in my High School. Though it was an AP class for college credit.

>>143621914
Well, judging by the show, you'd have a page of this, no calculator and about an hour? I don't recall if they said how long the examination would be.

>>143622045
I wasn't seriously asking if anyone could solve it, just that if you don't see abstract shit for a decade, it's not unreasonable to assume that your brain threw it out along with other irrelevant information to your daily noise.

>>143620164
>It is in Japan.

How? Does your university education and connections not matter as much?

I recently got my PhD, but I'd definitely fail if I had a many tests on the first day of class in high school. I'd easily catch up, but you can't expect someone to remember random literature, history, or even some science/math from a decade ago if it's not something you use every day. I do advanced statistics for my job and had to take high level math, but I mainly remember the concepts but wouldn't be able to just solve problems without reviewing for beforehand.

And the truth is that the Japanese work culture and environment really is that toxic. Tons of workers have to clock in extra long hours just because having your body there is required, although they aren't actually very productive at all. Japan is pretty ass-backwards when it comes to corporate culture, although that's true for many workplaces across the globe, but Japan is certainly one of the worst for post-industrial countries. With that said, Japanese high school is pretty shit too. It's funny, because they work so hard during high school, but for many college is a joke. Unless you're going to a top-tier college like Todai, Kyoto, or Waseda, you hardly have to show up to class, and cheating is rampant.

What is up with ED in Episode 2? I remember it being Nip meme music in NND

>>143622000

Depends on the STEM course, I doubt those in construction-oriented courses would remember most of their calculus. Too many different Math specializations

>>143622172

It's not too bad. Had to use Stirling's approximation which I'm not sure if they learn at this point in nip though.

>>143622470
From what I hear (and this could very easily be completely wrong as it's little more than bullshit I've heard online) outside of a few specialised careers like medicine a lot of the time when you're hired into a Japanese corporation they don't give a shit what your education background is beyond the fact that you have it and had good grades. A lot of corporations will stuff you into a sort of "freshman" department when they first hire you. There you will dick around for a few years learning the corporate culture while doing pointless bullshit busywork like taking part in committees to determine what color of paper should be used for different inter office memos. Eventually you'll be forced into whatever position they need filled regardless of what your background is, even if it means that they have to completely retrain you. So you'll get shit like people who studied accounting being forced to learn how to program because that's what is needed right now and you're expected to do whatever the company needs. You also (usually) can't get fired because the way the Japanese corporate world is structured it reflects poorly on a company if they need to fire people. Instead they'll give you really embarrassing jobs and try to turn you into a pariah until you're shamed enough that you quit or kill yourself. Also if you do quit you're fucked for life as. Regardless of the reasons you might have had everyone views it as being that you were a fuckup who got forced out and so nobody is ever going to hire you again.

How do you manage to watch any comedy anime if you feel this way? I think his reactions are the best part of the show.

Just watched the first two episodes.

What an enjoyable animu.

>>143622172
Believe it or not but Korea is worse when it comes to corporate culture. It's just the fact that those countries never really had the whole hippie culture in the 60s and early 70s as strong as the US did.

Well, at least I don't have to deal with long hours since the overtime rules got changed. Thanks Obama. Well at least when I'm in the office. I travel across the country so I do get overtime.

>>143623648
Yes.

On the second episode as of now
>putting away his pack of cigarettes instead of finishing them and stopping since he wouldn't be able to buy some anyway

>>143623819
And then throughout the series he still has cigarette butts in his ashtray.

Then you find out they get cigs and beers because Yoake can order them to be delivered through the lab and puts it as business expenses.

These adults have thought of everything.

So is this a depressing anime?
I kinda like watching depressing shit; I think it's because it makes me feel better about my self.

>>143615356
>I-I'm gifted b-but no one understands it

>>143624205
No, it ends up being really uplifting

>>143624205
It has some drama and dark stuff in some of the episodes, but it's not depressing at all unless you feel like you needed an Arata in your high school life.

>>143621094
yo, japanese curriculum/schooling sucks, it's all lecture based and memorization. there's very little "individual" problem solving and discussion in the classroom. thats why you don't see much innovation coming out of japan (and other eastern countries like korea and china), only "improved" technologies like super advanced toilets and shit

Not him but my high school was filled with blacks.
Once we had a bunch of them riot/protest in front of our school about our principal being a racist. It was because in the school newspaper there was an article about fighting that said "don't run to fights looking like monkeys"; on that page was a pic of kids in the hall and some of them were black. Also it was because some girl was handing out flyers about some drug dealer who was shot by 'racist white cops'and got them confiscated by an administrator. Ironically the administrator was black and once flat out lied to my mom and the school officer that 2 friends of mine saw me break into a ticket booth. When she told my mom that they were in the office and said they saw me do it she asked for their names and demanded she put them on the phone since she knew them. She started stumbling over her words and changed her story since they weren't in the office and never said that. I almost got arrested but the security cam proved I dindu nothing. Nobody even broke into the fucking ticket booth. It was the spot we ate lunch at and before we got there somebody just pushed over the wooden board guarding the slat and threw the tickets on the ground.

>>143623648
Y-yeah just don't hurt me.

And they never bothered with glass, making optics, silicon transistors, and a whole bunch of stuff completely inaccessible.

They also didn't do much with gunpowder, they just pissed about with fireworks.

also ED of ep5 is best ED.

>>143625094
yea, i know about the 4 great inventions, i'm asking whether you can name any world-changing innovations/tech that has come out of asia in the last 10 years, per my original question
i honestly can't think of anything but if you can name something go ahead. i just find that a lot of stuff they come out with nowadays isn't revolutionary, just more efficiencies on previous tech

But then the dwindling population problem would hit them even harder.

Seconding this, I'm living alone 600km from my hometown to study CE.
As a highschooler I "hated" most of my peers and I was in some kind of circlejerk company with people who had this in common. Now as an Uni student I'm forced to interact with twice the amount of people, I still think that most of them are irrelevant and plebs but at least I'm learning to communicate in a likeable way which will prove useful in a work environment. If you aren't the "social" type person be honest when you're talking and you're definitely gonna find people who share the same trait.

>>143625377
>Yes they fucking did. They created the first firearms . Stop talking shit out of your ass

Oh right, they invented the matchlock

They invented the first cannon but the first small-arms were european.
That's what I mean by them fucking about.

social media stuff like myspace and twitter

I hope this series has a sequel when it ends, with Kaizaki being the support for another NEET. Shit would be neat.

I don't read or watch anything with "Re" in the title so I wouldn't know, but from the sounds of it my position on this matter is the right one. Sounds shit.

So it's College? If anything that's better since it's preparing them for higher education, unlike the US where some people crack because they do well in High School and then they get to College and realize they actually have to study(as long as you don't go to some D-tier trash) instead of relying on the teacher holding your hand via classwork.

I actually went back to high school, when I moved back to Norway from Brazil my high school degree was invalid so I had to do the last year over again. I literally slept through half my classes and still got top grades in my class. I was 26 at the time.

This series is actually pretty good. The right amount of suffering and hijinks makes both the anime and manga worth to watch and read.

>>143626274
more like you were in a shithole of college.

Hey, at least you are not a carpenter like me.

>>143626327
Yeah because the ability to give someone a firearm, 3 days of training and throw them into the field verses 10 years of archery or however many years of physical training to become effective wasn't important.

Ostensibly it's to prepare you for the one job path where you will use the one section of information you learnt, so by teaching you so much it's giving you many opportunities, even if you'll only take one.

Probably because the average IQ in Japan is about 110

>>143615094
meanwhile in the US niggers jump on their desks and you learn absolutely nothing

Japan's thinking is correct; children are still innocent enough to be very pliable, and the goal is to turn them into successful adults. the ideal thought is every high schooler is potentially a successful adult, so they're all great. the NEET piece of shit after high school is the one who didn't succeed because he was always a piece of shit, but while he was in high school he still had potential and was thought of in a good light though unfortunately never bore fruit.

>>143621094

u end up with lim 1/n ( 2 sigma n +1 (1-n)log n)
log of 1 = 0

so sub 1/n in there and you have

2 1 log x dx

you just need to know log 1 = 0 and you can get the answer.

2 ) is the answer 2.

>>143622134

yes k only applies to k so you have log (n+1) = log n + log 1 since log 1 = 0 you have log n

Did you even watch the anime? He fails the tests because like every single normal adult, you forget all of the pointless shit they teach you the moment you leave school. Also, the MC is a very social guy who understands everything going on around him, he picked up on the fact that the redhead liked the blonde guy instantly and even gave her advice when she was feeling like shit because of her problems with the volleyball girl. He's a normal guy who fell into a toxic environment at work and the suicide from his mentor fucked him up. I liked the anime.

It sucks at both life lessons and wish fulfillment. A more wish fulfilling version would be sending a more sadistic version of him back to middle school so he'd be smarter and superior to everyone. Now that would be a great anime

>>143642791
Its totally understandable to fail the first few times. But to fail repeatedly is fucking retarded.

>>143642274
I'm 25 yo and have talent in math. but don't remember anything.

It's a school significantly above his level, and unless he has a STEM degree he wouldn't have much math at the university anyway.
Also keep in mind that raw intelligence peaks when you're around 20.

>>high school is the best and most important part of anyone's life!

but OP when you are in high school you're fumed with teenage hormones. This is a period where you develop emotions and get fed for free. It's probably the most interesting time of your life

I would personally consider my current undergrad life as the best period of my life yet tho. I have scholarship and shit it's as close to heaven as you can get desu.

>>143641771
not him but something like Rookies, where the highschool is pretty rough, even if it focuses on baseball.

You guys are idiots. The problem isn't that he instantly remembers all the math he ever learned on the spot (that's reasonable). The problem is that he never gets better and is literally the worst student in the whole school. And we're taking about a guy with a master's degree. That's just retarded and not believable at all.

I'm 27 and out of the military now, and I can't even chase a bus without panting like a dog afterwards. Zero exercise messes up your fitness really badly.

>>143643133
20 year old kids don't have the skills and experience that are much more important.

>>143643223
I agree, but it would atypical in the sense that anime always shows highschool as a happy fun time where nothing bad ever happens and no one has sex ever.

>>143616255

Good for you, I am halfway across the globe from home. I am enjoying the idea of disconnecting from my family, familiar places and having control of my life. But I find its VERY hard to find the courage to "change". I am your very typical nerd who reads Calculus book while eating breakfast and watch idol anime in my room. Not that I hate it, but it feels weird to be so different.

I'd beat some sense into my high school self. I had a mild learning disability, but I never asked for help on anything and just slacked off and as a result I failed and became a dropout. I fucking hate myself so much for doing that shit back then.

>>143643686
Anime is real, guys!

>>143615094
Working life in Japan is exhausting. Highschool was the last time a lot of them had time to be themselves.

>>143643878

Money and access to better healthcare. Also the rich corrupt old man who holds back/NTRs talented employee isn't just a meme.

High life expectancy.
American boomers are eating and smoking themselves to death while japanese boomers rise from the grave every few years to link the fire.

>>143643961

To be fair, there are instances of that occurring. Also Konami had one of these

>>143643961

>>143644187

Well, coke and other drugs aren't a problem there. So yeah, diet, gangbanging and drugs is what keeps the western life expectancy low.

>>143633143
Different guy.

You can break it up to (1/n)(log((2n)!) - log(n!) - nlog(n)), then apply Stirling's approximation of log(n!) = nlog(n) - n + other terms of orders that die out because of the 1/n factor.

This gives you 1/n(2n log(2n) - 2n - nlog(n) + n - nlog(n)), and then you can break up the 2n and cancel, then factor in the 1/n to turn 2nlog(2) - n into 2log(2) - 1, which is the RHS.

For 2) you can use Stirling's approximation again but in the form of n! = (n/e)^n, lower order terms are irrelevant.

This should get you ([(2n/e)^2n]/[((n/e)^n)*n^n])^1/n which can be factored with some easy algebra to get (2^2n* 1/e^n)^1/n, which is 4/e.

>>143644061
Sounds great, I'd go in there with a laptop and watch anime all day.

I'm kinda completely taken aback by this?It sounded like shit but it really seemed like a breath of fresh air

Arata sounded like he was supposed to be some hikkineet otaku filth self-insert, but he was not only a responsible, grounded guy, he's a social butterfly that's very outgoing.

And instead of being taught HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE CORRECTLY by bunch of high schoolers, he's mostly babysitting a bunch of dumbass kids and making them get over themselves.

Where did this come from? I think I love it.

>>143615094
There are two things that bother me.

First off: Holy shit that thumbnail looks like that guy had a crooked mouth

Second: This guy is 27 and hasn't even half of his life over and he starts over again? Seriously? If it was about an old fuck who had way more experience in life than a 27 year old NEET and this guy gets to live his life over again it would've been way more interesting premise than some random fuck who hasn't seen enough of the world yet but still has many chances to do so. And no I didn't watch the show solely because of this reason. It just doesn't sound interesting enough to me.

Which girl would you stick your dick in?

>>143644338
Thanks, I guess we never went over that Stirling's approximation.

But the guy posting this wasn't right, you can't solve it with just basic logic unless you know that approximation.

>>143615094
>you're some 27 year old NEET
Arata isn't a neet.

>>143644439
That's exactly why I dislike it.
Not because I want muh wish fulfillment but because the message is shit.
Initially it was presented (or at least that's how I percieved it) as "NEET goes back to high school to gain a new perspective on life and mature" but in the end it was just "NEET is down, send him back to high school so he's motivated for life" which is fucking retarded.
His personality doesn't change, sure he gets over some issues but he's still the same guy.
The drama is not even driven by the MC, but mostly by the other characters because of muh misunderstandings and shit. So what's the point?
The premise is wasted.
They should have made the MC full NEET and depressed and this experience should slowly change his life. It would have been way more interesting because in the end Relife wasn't really different from a lot of high school dramas aside from the "I'm old" "you are young" jokes.

>>143615094
This show was surprisingly decent, I'd figure it'd be some NEET wish fulfillment fantasy, but if anything it tells NEETs to man up and stop fucking around. 0 wish fulfillment outta 10 in retrospect.

>>143645160
Given that I literally picked it out of a prep book for japanese entrance exams, which is what they are preparing for in the anime as a prestigious prep school, and is a problem directly lifted from Hokkaido University's entrance exam for commercial fishing in the 90s, you would be wrong.

>>143636214
It's kind of a roundabout anime way of doing it, but the purpose of the experiment is to loosen his emotions and confront his own past so he can be a functioning contributor to society, this is achieved by putting him in the middle of the most emotional people on earth, high schoolers. All the drama will make him feel shit again for the first time in 10 years.

>>143636214
>>143645459
Not only that, but to also guide high schoolers away from the NEET life so they don't become toxic adults like the ones from Arata's workplace.

>>143644997
This must have been giant nostalgia trip for nips.

I thought it would be the height of otaku pandering shit, but once it got going I liked the straightforward likable characters and genuine MC. The problem now is we won't be able to discuss it every week since most of /a/ has probably watched it all already.

>MC secretly wanted to fuck his senpai

>>143645678
It's the thinking man's fetish.

Why don't they just sell the drugs that make you look young for tens of thousands to old hags instead of doing this stupid neet training program? Surely it would be much more lucrative.

>>143621094
If that's average for a japanese 11th grade math class, then my area fucking sucked.

I went all the way up to 10th grade, had maybe algebra 2.
I took all college classes after that, still didn't do any calculus until I was doing prereqs for my bachelors.

I still don't recognize that shit even after taking calculus, though it's been 6 years.

>>143645832
I suspect that is their eventual plan, these people are just test subjects, remember, they want to monitor them for any side effects from prolonged usage.

I don't understand people can't math.
It's based on rules.
Just learn the rules and apply them.
It might take some time to understand them 100 % and you will occasionally make mistakes but people who take a test 4 times and still don't get it are just retarded.
I'm not saying everyone could should be good at math but if you ever complained that math sucks and you "just don't get it" you are simply stupid.

And that's coming from someone who was just barely above average in math.

>>143645459
>so he can be a functioning contributor to society

That's the issue.
He isn't even full NEET, he's mentally stable
Why not take someone who actually needs help.
People in this thread say they are glad it's not wish fulfillment but making the MC full NEET doesn't mean it is that. Just show that he's shit and needs to change for the better.

>>143645519

>>143645917
People can't into math for the following three reasons:

>Stigma that math is "too hard"
>Math actually needs work and effort, not just last minute memorization
>Most schools let kids slip by with basic algebra because math is "too hard" and "muh state/national averages".

>>143645917
It looked like they were doing calculus and stuff, that shit can get pretty abstract. Trying to explain limits to a non-STEM major is a pain in the ass. Not to mention, jumping back into calculus after 10 years of practically no advanced math at all would be rough for anyone.

>Why not take someone who actually needs help.
He does though. He's a completely capable human who has lost all initiative and has become complacent with staying at the bottom of the barrel -- further more, he can't even get a job as it is right now, and nothing he can do can really change how badly he's fucked up professionally. Japanese working society is the worst. If anything, he's one of the most deserving candidates for a program like this, since he's actually a good person who's been dealt a really shitty hand.

>>143645917
I noticed that people that have trouble with math usually have problems with basics. They might have not understood stuff like adding fractions or other simple stuff and because you almost never revisit these later in education they don't even realize they learned it wrong.

>>143645917
I've had friends who had this issue and some anon was posting about it in a previous ReLife thread:
Problem stems from the fact that in most cases, people can pass their Math classes early on, without really learning "the rules".
Later on, when they face stuff where they have to know the rules, it's too late.

>>143645844
I live in Idaho and did Algebra 2, Pre-Calc, Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 for my 4 years of high school.

Our class was the first class to have enough students to justify a Calc 2 class though.

Also, decent understanding of fundamentals is a must to git gud at math

>>143645917
Math education tends to be shit, so people don't learn properly. The deeper you go into it without learning the fundamentals, the harder it becomes to learn those fundamentals.

Most math teachers I've dealt with didn't seem to really understand what they were teaching, or the rules behind it. "teaching" to them was basically just explaining the vocabulary and then assigning 80 pages of textbook work to be repeated until it just worked. If you approached with a question, they just accused you of not doing enough textbook work and went back about there day. If your textbook work was wrong, they just told you to redo it until it stopped being wrong.

For the basic math stuff I use in everyday life I just figured my own tricks to make things easier because I never learned any of the "rules" that you speak of. Anything more complicated than basic arithmetic and I bust out a calculator or google it because a textbook and a moody pregnant woman never taught me anything more than that.

>>143646115
It's also because math is taught one way and one way only. Some people aren't well-suited to "hear it once, do it 500 times" and it results in a lot of students who simply can't into the material being taught. Before they relaxed the restrictions on grade 10 math in my country, the highschool dropout rate was almost double what it is now. Students that couldn't make it work just gave up, because you can't advance towards graduation without math that goes beyond the level of anything they'll ever pout to use outside of highschool.

It's hard to make students who struggle with advanced math realize how valuable it is, and when the issue is top-down, it;s not uncommon for teenagers to just say "fuck it" and resign themselves to a life in the factory rather than try to force their square peg into the education system's round hole.

Glasses seems like best girl.

If there's anything I'd consider changing about my past self, it'd be me during undergrad. I'm still not certain how I feel about it now, but at my uni drinking as an undergrad was a pretty common thing. I didn't start drinking until I was 21, but I've felt for the longest time I've acted like I'm some morally superior person since I didn't drink until I could do so legally and that even after I started drinking I've never done so to the point where I get drunk. Yeah yeah, I was always the guy who joked about always being DD, but looking back on it, I can kind of see how that sort of thing might come across as off-putting to other people.
