Why did ReLife have no impact on /a/? Did it hit too close to home?

>>156197267
Too good for /a/.

>>156197267
It was shit

I enjoyed the manga

have these Hishirons

Released all the episodes at once.

I watched the first episode and though it was alright, I would have preferred to finish it weekly.

because the main girl is the worst one

What do you mean? A lot of people liked the anime, volleyball arc aside, and there are fairly regular mango threads, although we're again in the middle of a shit tier arc. No one calls it amazing but it's alright for cute romance when it's not being turd.

>>156197267
all episodes released at once + let's be honest it just wasn't that special

although it was sorta generic what it did, it did well.

>>156197267
Too many boring characters. MC and Hishiron weren't enough to save this snoozefest. The manga is no better.

>>156197267
Nobody watched it.

But /a/ had a lot of threads after it aired.
A lot of people liked it too.

>all episodes released at once

What is Netflix trying to achieve with this? Dont they notice it's killing every anime property they touch?

>>156197267
I liked it but the manga is not really going anywhere anymore

>>156197733
pretty sure it wasn't netflix

Did the manga ever bother explaining why ReLife doesn't make mad dosh by turning their miracle drug for youthul appearance into a commercial cosmetic product, instead of wasting time on trying to rehabilitate a bunch of NEETs?

>>156198084
I think they are still testing it
But they also have branches all over japan so maybe not
I think it's just hand waved away as "the government pays for it"

>>156197357
Imagine having to go through Kariu drama week after week. I'm kinda glad that it wasn't released week.

>>156198517
How does binge watching the full brunt of Kariu bullshit make it any better?

>>156198517
Exactly, people always say they wish it was a released on a normal schedule but most of them would have dropped it if it was. The only way I got through that volleyball arc was because all the episodes were available at once and I knew there was good stuff waiting once it was over.

Can you imagine slogging through that waiting a week in between each episode? Most anons would have dropped it at least temporarily.

>>156198517
One of the few manga where the JK is the one who ruins it all and the cake is best girl.

>>156199771
The cake is always best girl though

I liked it.

>>156199018
This

Wish more shows would adapt this release format tbqh

Eclipsed by Kuzu no Honkai

But they have completely different themes and audiences

I really enjoyed it. I genuinely felt empathy towards the characters

>>156197267
I binged through it, really liked it.
Except the drama arc.
just kiss her you fag

I liked it.

i can binge watch anime you retard, the OP was asking why it didn't have an impact on /a/

>>156197267
Dropping all the episodes at once killed the normal weekly discussions we have.

Because /a/, and most of 4chan for that matter, doesn't like the "binge-watch" phenomenon.

It's a normalfag thing.

>>156206405
>it's a normalfag thing
I don't think normalfags have time in their schedule to all-night anime.
The anons who watched it simply didn't feel like making a thread for it.

>>156199771
>JK
Stop with this stupid bullshit

>>156197733
It wasn't Netflix, it was some random Jap thing.

>>156205622

Fuck off, newfags.

>>156205622
People who don't watch weekly miss out on the most essential anime experience. I pity them. But to give you a recent example why: Any bandwagoner could hop onto Kemono Friends after it aired and claim to like it. Be he wasn't there for the adventure of seeing the series grow first hand. He didn't witness nor participate in the creation of OC and memes. He didn't emotionally invest in it when it was still a risk to do so, and hence he will never get the same payoff as those who did.

"Binge watching" is for week willed plebeians who chase short term pleasures. But weekly watching is for thinking men who aim to optimise their viewing experience long term.

>>156206544
>shitposting on /a/ is part of the essential anime experience
Delusional

>>156197267
It's a reddit manga/anime. /a/ is too corrupt to enjoy or to self insert it.

>>156206544
That's relative. There's tons of shows I either missed out on when they were airing or decide to save for later that I watch at most episodes nightly, without /a/ ever in the picture. I only ever watch shittier/trainwreck-esque shows with /a/ and only those because I don't want memes ruining a show for myself.

It was rather mediocre.
The plot is kokoro connect levels of stupid forced drama, only good things are Chizuru despite being boring and Kairu despite being a bitch.

>>156206544
>He didn't emotionally invest in it when it was still a risk to do so
If you like kememe friends you are a faggot, that has not changed and will not change in the future

>>156206523
What is with the recent backlash against this shit? I've seen these terms used on /a/ occasionally for years, did it only just now get common enough for some people to notice?

>>156206752
>a reddit manga/anime
What the hell does that even mean.

>>156206715
newfag

Every student of that school take the pills.

you're trying too hard to fit in

>>156206820
For some reason it has been reaching critical mass recently and now it's going the way of rage comics and pepe

>>156206820
Some people are trying to force that terminology into the memetic buzzword dictionary

>>156206905
The way of "senpai," more relevantly.

Main girl is the best

ReTARD

>>156206715
That's not the point, the point is 'why did relife have no impact on /a/'
As soon as a show finishes unless it was huge everyone forgets in about a week, relife finished in one day.

>>156207041
>>>/r9k/
Fuck off, retard.

>>156207327
Too late, I've been seeing that word everywhere on /a/ during the last months, there's no stopping it now.

>>156197267
i fucking hated the red haired girl, she ruined the whole show

>>156197267

It was released all at once so we talked about it for 2 weeks because there was nothing to drive the conversation

>>156207497
The real problem is her drama was too low key. She would have been much more likeable if she had been an emotionally damaged rape victim for example, instead of just a moody bitch.

>>156206544
except that aniplex released all ofRelife's 13 episodes before it even got released in Japanese TV

That just entails the essential anime experience was never possible for ReLife from the beginning.

>>156207953
blame aniplex for that. Dont even know why they did that in the first place

i enjoyed it
but fuck that whole
>drop L bomb
>spend next few episodes on some bitch instead

I dunno, i didn't watch it. missed weekly threads about it I gues--wait they just dumped the whole season at once. Why do something that stupid? This kills discussions and makes it go entirely under the radar.

Why is secretely listening in on other people such a meme in Japan? Kinda creepy how it happened constantly in this show and even resolved conflicts.

>>156207386
> I've been seeing that word everywhere on /a/ during the last months
Archive say it's been used 32% as much so far this year (1/3 into the year) as it was in 2016, so you're wrong.

I still keep up with the manga scanlations. One of my favourites! Thus I invoker masturbation

>>156197267
It was pretty good, but it ended on a most interesting part, so there was nothing to discuss really. Also, everyone interested in it already read the manga.

>>156197267
It was my AotS. But to answer your question, it's probably all the episodes were released at once.

I loved it. It was the scenario from my dreams in anime-form. They could have done more about "learning how to be a high schooler again" instead of all that relationship drama though.

>>156197267
Retarded release model

>>156197267
It did have an impact.It didn't air in a season's time.
Some praise it, some say it's shit.
>>156197298
>>156197314

>>156199018
I liked how we got all of it once too. But I still do think it would have gotten a lot more presence on /a/ had it been a weekly reoccurring thing throughout the whole season.

>>156197267

I've literally never seen anyone refer to girls with JK or whatever before today. Stop pretending to be Japanese.

Anime was average at best, even if it had released weekly in would have just been retarded red vs blue waifufaggotry all the way

>>156209597
> retarded red vs blue waifufaggotry all the way
You're right. Nothing can be compared to glorious color wars when Daimaou aired. Ah, those happy days. And blue is still the best.

>>156209597
>waifufaggotry
Well that's how a series stays relevant beyond its natural expiration date

>>156209597
Blue vs Yellow you mean. Nobody could possibly be retarded enough to waifu an annoying drama queen like Kariu.

It was the hot new thing for the entire day it aired.

>>156206820
JK/JS etc have been used on /a/ for many years, it's just newfags thinking it's a funny new maymay so they shit on it to feel superior. I guess it wasn't used much in their Jojo and Naruto generals, pretty pathetic desu senpai

>>156197267
I love ReLife. It's the high school rom com I was always waiting for.

>>156210145
How can you say this when Volleyball arc was so fucking terrible, holy shit how could anyone stand this

>>156197267
don't people know discussions usually happen when the anime is fresh and new? They are also concluded right after when it ends, god forbid they turn to those generals full of blogging and god knows what else.

Why do people start threads like this it's retarded.
