Looks good~
The manga is still continuing though so I'm curious to see if they will go with an anime original route.

Keigo Sasaki's designs look great as usual.
Hope this is good.

Sounds like an interesting premise. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for this one!

Maybe they will do a Lie in April adaption in which both the manga and the anime will end at the same time.

The manga does seem to be heading to an ending, so this could definitely happen. Leaving the mystery halfway done or making up a different 'solution' in the anime would be weird, so I'm hoping it's that.

Do not end at the same time, the anime ends one month later.

Yeah, I hope that the manga is one that is going to end around the time that the anime adaption would. As, the premise for this series, lends itself to being the type of thing I'd like to see have its anime ending be the same as the manga's.
I'm an easy mark for time/space travel and anything related to it (alternate dimensions, future visions etc), so I'll be checking this one out regardless.
Though, the most recent series that have dealt with time travel (in one way or another) have kind of let me down. Charlotte (in spoilers as the synopsis of the show doesn't mention time travel) is a series I liked overall, but it does have flaws. Still, it ended satisfyingly enough for me.
Glasslip was one that I was expecting more of...and that one turned out to be a train wreck in my eyes. There's also the ending for Magical Warfare...ugh...
Another poor one was In Search of a Lost Future (in spoiler, again due to synopsis). That was one where I wasn't even expecting time travel, and had no expectations of the show itself. But it was a let down.
Fingers crossed I won't get burnt!
I do have a few questions though, due to seeing the manga synopsis for the series on MAL. It says this - he sends himself back in time only to find himself as a grade-schooler.
One, has it been established that he can only travel to a period during his own lifespan? Two, does that mean it's more like his consciousness travels, and is placed in the body he would've had in that period of time? Three, is there something different about this trip, leading to him being in his younger self's body?
I'm unsure if answering those questions leads to a bigger spoiler within the series, but spoilers don't really ruin series for me. The only time that happens, is when it comes to the ending of a series that involves romance...and I find out that the romance is left open ended (like many harem series). And, I don't see how that'd be the case here, seeing as the ending is yet to be published.

The answer is "Yes" to your 3 questions.
When those "replays" happen, his mind travels about one minute in the past. The replay happens again and again until he spots what's wrong and fixes it.
But at some point, something really big happens and the replay sends his mind 15 years in the past, inside his 10/11 yo body.

Oh snap. You had me at time travel. I'm expecting this to be good.

I've heard of this one before, and I'm intrigued by the premise, so I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

Thanks for answering my questions.
I'm looking forward to this even more now. Really hope that the manga does wrap up close to the end of the anime, as I would like the anime to have the same ending as the manga.
Sure, they could go with an anime original ending, but it really is a series that needs to have an ending...it'd kill me if the anime ends with a cliff hanger. And, my preference is that it has the same ending as its source material.
Of course, if by some chance the manga gets licensed, then it wouldn't matter as much.

I've never heard of this. I'm usually not a fan of time travel, but this looks interesting.
