History YMMV / ReLIFE

* [[HilariousinHindsight Hilarious in Hindsight]]:

** Hishiro's [[spoiler:birthday is on 25th of December.]] [[spoiler:She's also a "ChristmasCake".]]

** In Report 111 and 112, [[spoiler:the revelation that Hishiro knows about [=ReLIFE=], and being a subject, removed some of the tension her romance sub-plot had for some readers. In addition, a majority of these people are also disappointed that the revelations with Hishiro was too obvious and safe to make for a true plot-twist]]. For others, people are just happy that the mysteries are starting to unfold or that an [[spoiler:adult Hishiro in the same situation]] is a better fit for Kaizaki self-development in the experiment.

** There were also some folk who got sick of the Hishiro revelation chapters due to keeping the main character, Kaizaki, OutOfFocus for several chapters.

** Some weren't too happy about the volleyball chapters due to the [[SpotlightStealingSquad continued focus]] on [[TheScrappy Kariu]] after already having an arc dedicated to her revolving around Hishiro trying to befriend her. [[spoiler: However it's later revealed that this arc had a lot of subtle, important setup and foreshadowing regarding the ReLife experiment itself as a whole.]]

** [[spoiler:Onoya turning out to be an employee of [=ReLife=]]] is either a great plot-twist that caught a bunch of people off-guard or it was a pointless twist that added nothing to the story.

* TaintedByThePreview: The premise of the series, the idea that a 27-year-old man could possibly end up in a relationship with a 17-year-old, has had some people looking elsewhere.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Played with. One lesson Kaizaki learns is that it's sometimes more important to let a bad situation between people – bullying, discrimination, or a spat between friends – run its course, because intervening might only make it worse and screw ''you'' over, too. Kaizaki can attest to [[DrivenToSuicide how badly this can go]]. That said, neither protagonist is entirely satisfied with this way of thinking, and some other characters eventually come to praise Kaizaki for having had the balls to do the right thing despite the consequences.

* AdaptationDisplacement: Sort of. The series started as a Korean-style, vertically-read webcomic, but most people are familiar with the manga port or the anime adaptation.

* AdaptationDisplacement: Sort of. Many people who are familiar with the manga and anime aren't aware that the series started as a vertically-read webtoon.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Tamarai's love life that is implied to be related Aki and Nobu, since by that time [[spoiler: Hishiro is too occupied with her future with Kaizaki and Tamarai wanting to preserve the relationship that the subplot never got explored]].

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Kairu is the most divisive character in the series, largely due to being [[{{Tsundere}} the source]] of a lot of the [[DysfunctionJunction conflict]] for the first half of the series and Arata being relegated to playing SupportingProtagonist as a result. On the one hand, you have those who find this to be realistic both due to her age and the fact that the [=ReLIFE=] program almost ''calls'' for Arata taking on a supporting role in his classmates life. There's also those who found it refreshing that a "Tsundere character" wasn't attracted to the main character for once. On the otherhand, there are detractors who found Kairu far too abrasive and a [[SpotlightStealingSquad spotlight stealer]] who got two lengthy arcs that both dealt with her issues with being honest about her feelings.

** [[spoiler:Onoya turning out to be an employee of [=ReLife=]]] is either a great plot-twist that caught a bunch of people off-guard, or it was a pointless twist that added nothing to the story.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: What Hishiro was early in the series, before she had much prominence. Her fans were quite pleased when she turned out to be the main heroine.

** In chapter 100, Onoya accompanied of Hishiro, Kaizaki and Yoake said to Ohga that a young girl advice in love is good for him. [[spoiler: There isn't any "young girl" in their group at all!]]

** In Report 111 and 112, [[spoiler:the revelation that Hishiro knows about [=ReLIFE=], and the revelation moments after that she's a subject, removed some of the tension her romance sub-plot had for some readers. In addition, a majority of these people are also disappointed that the revelations with Hishiro was too obvious and safe to make for a true plot-twist]]. For others, people are just happy that the mysteries are starting to unfold or that an [[spoiler:adult Hishiro in the same situation]] is a better fit for Kaizaki self-development in the experiment.

** [[spoiler:Hishiro tried to help a bullied girl, only for the bullying to become worse similar to Kaizaki's attempt. She ended up closing her heart entirely that year, leading to her failing.]]
