Premieres April 7th. The new PV is here. Check out the ANN article for additional cast/staff information. Synopsis from AniList:
The story of Jii-san Baa-san Wakagaeru follows Shouzou and Ine, an elderly couple who are living a quiet life in a farming village in Aomori Prefecture. After eating a mysterious apple that they discover on their apple farm, Shozo and Ine spontaneously regain their youth, but even after being reinvigorated they continue to live life at a grandparent-ly pace.
Didn’t think this was every getting an anime. Its a nice cozy manga about an old couple, with the occasional melancholy that comes with aging, outliving your friends, and missing opportunities.
I wasn’t expecting it either. Now I’m mildly excited - I’m not a fan of SoL but the manga series stands out for me, it’s really good.
You guys have sold me on this!
Given Japan’s older demographics trends, anime and manga targeted to older audiences shouldn’t be a surprise.
They look so adorable, very excited for this to start
Having just watched the preview, I love how those voice actors did “old soul in young voice”
