Synopsis

The moments Keisuke Niijima shared with his wife, Takae, were the happiest in his life. After their first meeting as coworkers, the bond between them gradually became stronger. They eventually married and were blessed with a daughter named Mai soon after. However, following Takae's death, time seems to have stopped for Keisuke, resulting in his inability to build a proper relationship with his daughter.

Ten years later, the gloomy Niijima household is bound for change when a little girl knocks at the door—claiming to be Takae's reincarnation. After confirming her identity, Keisuke's world brightens once more as he revels at the thought of making new memories with his beloved family. Unfortunately, this fortuitous miracle comes with its obvious drawbacks, and one mistake will spell more tragic consequences for Keisuke and everyone else involved.

Here's a premise you don't see every day: a middle-aged man and his 20-year-old daughter have been stuck in grief and isolation for ten years after losing the wife and mother in their family.

Preliminary (3/12 eps)
Part 1

My first impressions of Tsuma, Shougakusei ni Naru is that this anime will offer a story of reflection, forgiveness, criticism of family and couple interaction that will draw the attention of certain audiences since its dramatic scenes are light, the theme of the protagonist who revives is not another isekai is a great breath of fresh air and has a fluid and simple animation

I also see that like other animes they put fantastic or divine elements will not be exposed where that element comes from, who caused it and that the protagonist has a guardian, supervisor or a divine pet, which seems fine to ...

Preliminary (3/12 eps)
Spoiler
It’s starts off pretty interesting as this is not a format I’ve seen in the reincarnation genre, but that’s where it ends for me in episode 3. A little spoiler is nobody moves on and the wife instead of pushing them to move forward after a decade just keeps them standing in place.
