The wraparound band on the sixth volume of Michirou Ueyama's Akuyaku Reijou Tensei Ojisan (The Old Man Reincarnated as a Villainess) manga announced a television anime adaptation on Thursday.

Ueyama began serializing the comedy fantasy manga in Young King OURs GH magazine in March 2020. Shounen Gahousha shipped the sixth volume on January 4 (pictured).

Synopsis
In his previous life in modern-day Japan, he was Kenzaburou Tondabayashi, a 52-year-old civil servant—and now he's the villainess! Reborn as Grace Auvergne, the drill-haired villainess of an otome game his daughter used to play, Kenzaburou is quite confused.

From the little information he possesses, Kenzaburou knows he should be a haughty noble girl, but the disciplined older man is simply unable to act in such a manner. His calm and kind aura leads him to befriend the heroine and further endear him to the student body as the pinnacle of elegance. As he tries to keep the story on track, Kenzaburou will have to draw on his years of experience in the workforce, his perfect Japanese manners, and his family-oriented morals to fit in with the fellow kids.

I like how those calling Villainess and reverse harems garbage and BS are male. Lmao like yall aint even the target audience. Let the target audience decide whether its garbage or not. Y'all have had your dumb harem and ecchi for years now, and we didnt complain. Now women are getting what they want and you guys are having an aneurysm about it. Suck it up.

Despite the strange idea this manga has a pretty good rating. I guess it will be a fun show along the lines of Jidou Hanbaiki ni Umarekawatta Ore wa Meikyuu wo Samayou

Why are people acting as if a guy reincarnated as a girl in another world is something that was new? There's literally been multiple isekai with tthat exact premise already like Youjo Senki

Another isekai, if you told me these plots were A.I generated, I would believe it whole-heartedly.

A vending machine, a pig and now this.

Why are the most random stories getting anime adaptations, but not Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter? Both the light novels and the manga are sold out in every book store I've checked. I had to buy my copy in digital form. You're telling me that a manga with less than 800 user rates gets an anime adaptation while the (also villainess) manga that has over 5k doesn't? What a shame. At this rate, I've lost all hope of Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter ever getting an anime adaptation. It's clearly never happening.

@Rimuru0001
the good thing about being unapologetic and relatively self-isolated.

Someone reincarnated as a pig and another one as a vending machine and now an old man as a lady .. Japan madness has no limit and studios know well what to pick , damn .

Is this just another parody of the genre or some kind of satire on Japanese boomers? At first glance, it looks like “the isekai villainess trend meets the ojisans comedy trend.”
