Tsuma, Shogakusei ni Naru Blu-ray Box

Starring Shinichi Tsutsumi, a reincarnated wife returns as an elementary school student in this unusual, heartwarming story of a family's renewal. Even in a world without me, I want you to keep smiling.

The story begins when a husband who lost his beloved wife ten years ago, and with her his reason for living, unexpectedly reunites with her alongside their daughter. Incredibly, his wife and the daughter's mother has been reborn as a ten-year-old elementary school girl. Although husband and daughter are bewildered by her new appearance, she gives them the encouragement and firm push they have been missing for a decade.
