Report 214

Plot
Ryō is visiting Arata for the final evening of the ReLIFE experiment. After a couple of beers, Ryō gives Arata a list of companies and encourages him to take his time choosing which one he wants to be recommended to.

As Ryō asks Arata how he feels about his ReLIFE, Arata replies that it was amazing, and showed him many things about himself that he had lost and that he is grateful to everyone for it. Ryō tells Arata that everyone is also grateful to him, as even if they forget him, his influence will have changed their thinking and way of life and it will support them in the future. He then admits that he is one of the people who was affected by Arata in that way and encourages him to be more confident about himself.

Ryō then hands Arata the pill that will end the experiment and return him to his adult form, asking offers to wait until he is ready to take it. Arata notes that even if the friends he made forget him he will still remember them and glances at his phone with the strap Chizuru gave him attached to it. Arata adds that in order to meet them again he will just have to keep trying and asks Ryō to confirm, which he does, unable to reveal the truth that Arata is most likely not going to remember Chizuru.

Arata takes the pill and crawls to his bed, telling Ryō to lock the door when he leaves. As the last thing before he leaves Ryō says to the sleeping Arata that he is truly happy he made it through, and gives a bow in thanks for the amazing ReLIFE.
