Re-Animated: That One Time I Died and Got to Choose Which Universe I Wanted to be Reincarnated Into

Riley is a regular teenager who’s feeling down on his luck—until an unfortunate accident leaves him...well, dead. In the afterlife, Riley meets Thanatos, the personification of Death, who offers him a tempting deal: the power to reincarnate into any universe of his choice, so he can finally live a life that ends with a satisfying, fulfilling death.

But hopping through the multiverse isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. No matter where Riley goes, he can’t find a place that feels like home.

Frustrated and determined, Riley decides he’s had enough—and challenges Death himself for the chance to return to his original universe and reunite with his family.
