He ended up working part-time at a convenience store where he was scouted by Ryo Yoake who chose him for the ReLIFE Project. As a junior at high school who only appears to be a 17-year-old boy, Arata is predictably seen as mature by his classmates and has no problem easily making friends. He has forgotten most of his high school lessons, so he needs to take many remedial tests. He prevents himself from falling in love due to his biological age and the after-effect of the pill he must take after the experiment ends, even though Ryō encourages him to "live the ReLIFE to its finest".
