Anime

The entire series got released on June 24 on the Comico app (source). It should be considered an original net anime now.--Sakretsu (talk) 10:42, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

I'm going to want more info before I can give an opinion. The google translation for that source is perhaps unsurprisingly unclear. Several sites are streaming the whole series already (Crunchyroll outside Japan, Amazon Japan) but the series is still being broadcast on a weekly basis. Also TMS have form for not even knowing what type of anime their own works are, they don't even know what some of their Lupin entries are, with several being shown in cinema's before their "OVA" release. So I'm inclined to want more information. At any rate, this is an unusual case so I'll mention it at WP:Anime. Oh and as people have been adding the end date as July 1st, that field is for TV broadcasts not streaming.SephyTheThird (talk) 11:38, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Do reliable sources refer to the anime series as an ONA? If they don't, then Wikipedia can't either. And since the anime is called a TV series by reliable sources, the |first= and |last= parameters should reflect the original air dates. Also, while Google Translate is not the best, the link you provided doesn't prove that all of the episodes were released at once, but that each episode will be made available on the app once a week after their initial television broadcast. In fact, the link even states that the second episode will not be delivered until July 8. —Farix (t | c) 12:40, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

All episodes were indeed released at once, you can see the entire series right now on (Crunchyroll) (See this (tweet) if crunchyroll isn't available in your region). CurlyWi (talk) 13:46, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

I agree with TheFarix. If the series is intended to be a TV broadcast, use those dates on the episode listings from the original broadcast, not the streamers or put on demand services that might have released episodes before then in other countries / time zones or to their subscribers. The alternative methods can be mentioned in the broadcast section. But this is like those other anime series where some volumes get released on video first before getting a proper television run. As another example, Attack on Titan was released on Crunchyroll with English subtitles and even had some DVDs dubbed in English. Then later, it gets a proper Toonami run. So the English broadcast dates are the Toonami ones, even though people have seen the episodes. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 13:52, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Indeed, English reliable sources mentioned the anime adaptation as a TV series. However, the source I've provided states in Japanese "you can enjoy the entire ReLife anime now! Finally, ReLife channel got opened!!" (アニメ「ReLIFE」のすべてが楽しめる！「ReLIFEチャンネル」がついにOPENしました!!). Just to be sure, I've downloaded the comico app, found the channel and checked if it was true. The information is written on the official anime website too (ReLife Channel, 2016.6.24, Friday, The whole story will be delivered before the TV broadcast), so it seems the series was truly intended to be an ONA like Momokuri.--Sakretsu (talk) 14:28, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Or they decided the release details partway through production. It could have been decided at pretty much any time of the process, therefore determining the intention without a source would seem to involve original research. Noting the release details in the article body is obviously necessary but it's not for us to decide if it's an ONA or not without clear indications. At the moment it's not really clear what the purpose was originally.SephyTheThird (talk) 15:24, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Unless you have a high-quality reliable source stating that the series is an ONA, we can't assuming that it was intended to be an ONA. If the anime series was intended to be broadcast on television from its inception, it is still a TV series regardless if it available via VoD a hour or so before the broadcast. —Farix (t | c) 18:13, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Closing Songs

The List of Closing Songs section for Episode 2 provides a link to Hot Limit (song), which is actually about a cover by another band and their "single" of the same name. The original by T.M. Revolution is what actually was used in the episode (as the entry states). While the HL article mentions it is a cover, it has nothing to do with the version used in ReLIFE. I believe either we should either remove the link here, or someone expand the HL article to include both versions of the song. I could do the former, but I am not qualified to do the latter. – 2*6 (talk) 05:10, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Not a "NEET"

The Wikipedia article has "The NEET category includes the unemployed (individuals without a job and seeking one), as well as individuals outside the labour force (without a job and not seeking one)" and "NEET is a distinct social policy category from that of freeter, the classification for those working low-wage part-time jobs". Given that the guy works a presumably "low-wage part time" job at the convenience store, meaning he's not "Not in Education, Employment or Training", it's inaccurate to call him a NEET. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.109.203.149 (talk) 22:57, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
