"Starting Over" is a short story by Sugaru Miaki, originally posted on 2channel in 2012. A man is sent back in time ten years to relive his life. But before long, things get problematic.The story was novelized in 2013. Both versions have been translated into English by vgperson. The short story can be read here (or in the original Japanese here), and the novelization can be read here.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })(Because the protagonist is unnamed, he will be referred to as "the MC" below.) | |

Canon Foreigner: Usumizu and Hashibami. (The short story mentioned someone with the same role as Usumizu, but he was only mentioned once and never appeared in the story.) | |

Starting Over / int_11d671f6 | comment |
Stopped Caring: "To give a few examples, let's see. I was bullied by my best friend from my first life, I was severely rejected by my girlfriend from my first life, and I failed the exam for the high school I attended in my first life… and so on." Given how well his life had gone the first time around, and how much effort he put into making sure nothing changed, this is more than enough to turn the MC into a bitter loner who's completely stopped trying. | |

Starting Over / int_1de5c038 | comment |
Too Happy to Live: At age 20, the MC is living a life he is incredibly happy with. He's attending the university he wanted; he has a wonderful girlfriend, many friends, and a bright future in store; and he's having the time of his life, fully aware of how good he's got it and how fortunate he is. Most of us only dream of having such a perfect life. So of course, he gets reset back to age 10, all his efforts to recreate his first life fail hard, and he ends up a miserable shell of his former self. | |

Trapped in the Past: This is how the MC regards the reset, since he has no desire to change anything, and therefore must go through the slog of reliving the next ten years exactly the same way as last time. Of course, it doesn't quite work out that way… | |

Make It Look Like an Accident: The MC's plan for murdering his double is to push him off a bridge, cliff, or other high place, so that it'll look like he simply fell. There isn't much logistical difficulty to this, since Tokiwa has a habit of visiting such places simply to gaze at the landscape. But the MC always chickens out, and ultimately doesn't go through with it. | |

Amnesiac Hero | |
Starting Over / int_41ba335a | comment |
Amnesiac Hero: Played with. The MC can remember his first life, but only in the abstract. For example, he can remember "The starry sky on the day we camped at the lake during the summer when I was twelve", but he can't picture any of it in his head, nor remember the name of the lake or the campsite. He can remember that his girlfriend "always had sleepy eyes, but it only looked that way because of her long eyelashes", but he can't picture her face or remember her name. It's like he has aphantasia and anomic aphasia, but only for his first life memories. This ends up being the linchpin of the plot. The greatest divergence between his first life and his second life occurs because he misidentifies his girlfriend. Even aside from this, his memory is as imperfect as anyone else's, so his memories of his first life were never complete to begin with, and they continue to fade as the years go by. In the novelization, he mentions that if he isn't paying attention, he can even forget that this is his second time. | |

Doppelgänger Gets Same Sentiment: Eventually, the MC realizes that he's been directing his affections and efforts towards the wrong woman — his real girlfriend's double. In the novelization, this is made even more explicit when he realizes he did the same thing with his best friend, which led to worse outcomes for both of them. | |

It's a Wonderful Plot: In the short story, the MC notices that his little sister ends up a much gloomier person in his second life, and concludes that this must be due to his negative influence the second time around. In the novelization, it goes even further: His and his sister's more negative personalities end up affecting their parents, who start drifting apart, fighting, and contemplating divorce; and the person who was his best friend in his first life, without his friendship the second time around, ends up becoming a horrid bully in middle school, and a suicidal basket case by adulthood. | |

Christmas Songs: The final stages of the story take place during the Christmas season, so the MC starts hearing them everywhere. Of course, they just depress him because he's so lonely and cynical. Although the John Lennon song "Happy Christmas (War Is Over)" is never directly mentioned, the reference is implied when the story ends on Christmas day, with the song upcoming on the Lennon Legend album that the doubles are listening to (and which the story's title, "Starting Over", is derived from). | |

Meaningful Echo: In the first scene, when the rewind first happens, the MC tells his 7-year-old sister exactly what just happened and what his plan is, knowing full well that she'll neither understand nor remember. In the final scene, 10 years later, they have a very similar conversation, with many sentences echoed word-for-word; but this time the conversation is about how his plan turned out, and what he learned from it. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance: The MC's real girlfriend is introduced much earlier. This may have been done to make the later twist feel less like an Ass Pull, but given the character's prominence in a story with a very small cast, it's now quite likely that the reader will figure it out long before the reveal, if not immediately. | |

Evil Doppelgänger: If one views the MC and his double as true doppelgängers, then the MC is undoubtedly the evil one. He is a living example of how poorly his original self could turn out given a different environment, and he's so bitter and envious of his double that he intends to murder him so he can take his place. | |

Set Right What Once Went Wrong: It's not clear that this is what the reset was for (or if indeed it was "for" anything at all), but it's what the MC decides to use it for in the end. In the novelization, he wonders if perhaps this is why he was reset to begin with, and this interpretation is more strongly implied by a couple of new details. | |

Murder by Inaction | |
Starting Over / int_c2d6fc5e | comment |
Murder by Inaction: When the MC realizes that the doubles are going to die unless he intervenes, he means to let it happen, both because his bitterness towards them makes it hard to have any sympathy, and because he feels that he'll be happier if he can't pursue a forlorn hope. He ultimately changes his mind, though it takes a bit longer in the novelization. | |

Doppelgänger | |
Starting Over / int_c4b09e97 | comment |
Doppelgänger: The MC sees his first-life girlfriend dating a man who looks and acts just like his first-life self (even has the same birthday), and comes to believe that this man is his doppelgänger. After reading up on the phenomenon, however, he concludes that he himself must be the doppelgänger. He hopes that this includes the idea that meeting face-to-face will kill the "original", so that he can take over his life. Later, when they do end up meeting face-to-face (and in the novelization, they even have a full conversation), nothing happens; so either they aren't "really" doppelgängers, or that point about doppelgängers isn't true in that universe. In the end, it isn't really clear whether they're truly doppelgängers in any supernatural sense; though it should be noted that the novelization downplays the idea. Apparently they do objectively look similar, though, since the MC's double acknowledges it himself. | |

Shout-Out | |
Starting Over / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Chapter 3 references a video game about time travel. Though the title isn't given, it's clear that he's talking about Chrono Trigger. (Technically the short story makes the same allusion, but since it doesn't mention that the game is about time travel, it could be referring to any 90s SNES game with a New Game+ mechanic.) | |

Starting Over / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: The MC ends up living through a decade of misery and failure and loneliness, realizes seemingly too late where it all went wrong, but then finally manages to find some happiness and closure, and the determination to make the future better. This all applies to Hiiragi as well. | |
