[Anime] Haibara's Teenage New Game+ {review}

Have you ever regretted thinking about the past even if you are living a successful life at the present time? Have you ever thought life would be more beautiful if you enjoyed it in different ways? Why am I saying it? It's because I watched the anime "Haibara's Teenage New Game+" recently and there are 12 episodes of the anime, and the duration of each episode is approximately 23 minutes.

"Haibara's Teenage New Game+" is the type of anime where Natsuki Haibara (the hero) was enjoying an ordinary good life, but when he thinks about his adolescence time he has nothing significant to remember. His school life was kind of a colorless rainbow. One day, he was thinking it would be better if he enjoyed his school life differently, and surprisingly, he's found himself at the time of school life in the next morning while woke up from sleep. Getting the chance to relive his high school life, he decided to enjoy life in that way how he pictured for what he regretted.

In the past he was fat, introvert type person who couldn't open up his mind in front of others and he was always alone in school without having any friends. He was talented and hardworking, but we couldn't show it to others and couldn't express himself. but this time he did not repeat the same role as he played in the past. He was not happy with his current achievement, and he maintained his fitness which gave him a better and smart look. He entered the group of the people what he wanted from the first day, which was impossible for him in the past.

Natsuki Haibara didn't want to change anything except changing his colorless rainbow school life. He opened up his mind and expressed himself how he wanted. And he started to enjoy life according to his expectations. He didn't have any superpower, but he had the experience which helped him to perform better. He also faced trouble and at some point, he felt the dream of his colorful rainbow adolescence wasn’t possible unless his childhood friend (Motomiya Miori) gave him a push.

This time he worked harder and became better so that the people who inspired him also became jealous of him. It was impressive how the relationships with his friends unfolded and I really liked the thing that he was not the reason to solve every issue like other anime. As hero he wasn't overpowered and all the supporting role-played important part of the anime. The ending scene was unexpected and left little mystery.

This anime showed how changing perspective can make like better, colorful and enjoyable. I feel this anime showed a realistic approach, and I can deeply connect my life with the several situations of the anime. I rate the anime 75 out of 100. I think rating is not something that can justify the depth of this anime. I recommend you to watch it.
