 An official website opened for a television anime adaptation of Kagiri Araido's Jiisan Baasan Wakagaeru manga on Wednesday and revealed a teaser visual (pictured).Araido began drawing the romantic comedy manga on their official Twitter and pixiv accounts in October 2019 and then serialization on Comic Aruna in August last year. Kadokawa published the sixth volume on October 21 and will release the seventh volume on August 16. Jiisan Baasan Wakagaeru has a cumulative of over one million copies in print and digital. Synopsis Shouzou and Ine Saitou have been happily married for as long as they can remember. Even in their old age with wrinkles and cracking limbs, the strength of this love is evident by their precious bond. And then, randomly one day, they wake up to find they are young again! Despite their newfound youthful and attractive bodies, Shouzou and Ine remain the same as ever. Jiisan Baasan Wakagaeru follows the young old couple as they go about their daily lives, spend time with family, and defy the expectations of the youngsters.

| Haven't seen an anime with elderly protagonist(s) since 2017. Nice. Definitely gonna watch. |
 |
| It is a manga with episodic story. Anyway, good that they will adapt it! |

Phlaryx said: Its the only one i think that was aired in that year that the main character was an elderly protagonist ,so yesPiromysl said: Haven't seen an anime with elderly protagonist(s) since 2017. Nice. Definitely gonna watch. Are you talking about Inuyashiki? |
| This just goes to show that anything really goes in this medium, lol. Sounds interesting though, I’ll definitely keep an eye on this. |

| So happy that this romcom is getting an anime adaptation! I've never read the Manga yet since I'm waiting for it to finish so I can binge it to completion, but I enjoyed Kagiri Araido's first manga 'I Want to Get Along With My Childhood Friend' and expect this Manga to be potentially great if not at least enjoyable for what it is. |
| This a weird one to get an adaptation tbh. it's more or less pixiv shorts in length so idk how much they'll fit into each episode then again, small senpai is currently airing so i guess it'll be similar to that. still a cute series tho |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Really happy that this got an adaptation . Those who feel that their tastes are too elite for them to watch this anime can do us a favor and freely avoid both the manga and anime..... |
| So, is it basically a couple SoL version of the "daddy's 17 again" type of storyline? |
 |
| Happy to hear! We definitely need more romance anime! |
| Old couples huh !? Okay interesting |
| This is one of those wholesome series, glad to see it getting anime hopefully it makes it just more better! |
 |
| Oo, looks interesting |
