If they do a good job, this show could be something really special. I'm hoping for the best. If it hits anywhere near as hard as the manga, people will love it.

The typical over-the-top anime style of art and voice acting would be quite out of place with this story. And a lot will be riding on the performance of the wife's role.

Its funny because the title sounds fairly normal in japanese.

That being said, no synopsis, I have no idea.

Also apparently its airing this year, and the manga is finished? Huh.

Even reading the synopsis I'm still confused.

Soo he has a daughter, and then he meets his reincarnated wife? Oh my.

I suppose I'll check again when july or october rolls around.

EDIT: While I do appreciate the title being shorter (kinda sad that I have to say that now) maybe it would be less confusing if it had "tensei" or something similar in the title

@Swagernator I don't know, but at the same time I've seen a number of comedies with such premise.

Does it have the big sad, or its just mostly a comedy ?

The romantic buildup following the imminent springtime aggravation!

Abe Noriyuki is a good director who has managed to please viewers recently with shows like My New Boss Is Goofy, a good show in the real life genre, now this is another cute romance.
