An exciting new anime called Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again is on its way. It’s based on Kagiri Araido’s manga with the same title. The first episode of the anime is all set to hit the screens this month.
The anime is made by Gekko and directed by Masayoshi Nishida. Nagisa Takahashi is designing the characters, while Yuki Sugawara is handling the series composition.
Tomoki Hasegwa is in charge of the music. The opening theme song, Kimi ga Ojiichan Atashi ga Obaachan, is performed by Koresawa, and the ending theme, Soitoge Yo-Yo!!, is sung by Shin-Ichiro Miki and Mamiko Noto.
Recap
The story of Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again is pretty clear from its title. It follows Shozo and Ine, an older couple living a simple life with their family.
Even though they’re not rich, they find happiness in their modest lifestyle. But everything flips upside down when they unexpectedly become young again.
In the first episode of Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again, we’ll likely see Shozo and Ine transforming into their youthful selves and the reactions of their family and others.
Since the manga chapters are short, one episode of the anime will cover multiple chapters at once. The anime will mainly follow Shozo and Ine’s romantic and adventurous journey as they rediscover their youth.
