Synopsis – Tsuma Shougakusei ni Naru

Keisuke Niijima is an office worker in his forties who has been unhappy since the death of his wife Takae ten years ago.

His monotonous life takes an unexpected turn when a young girl from elementary school shows up at his door, claiming to be the reincarnation of Takae. This revelation turns Keisuke's life upside down, and he finds himself confronted with the opportunity to relive the lost moments with the one he loved.

However, the situation is far from simple. Takae, now in the body of an elementary school student but with the mind and memories of a 40-year-old woman, finds herself juggling her new life as a child with her desires as an adult woman. She desperately tries to recreate moments of complicity with Keisuke, while navigating the complex world of childhood.
