If My Wife Becomes an Elementary School Student is an anime set to air in October 2024 in the Fall season and has been subject to a lot of controversy recently. As one can tell from its bold title as well as a recently released trailer, the Studio Signpost project has anime fans fearing for the worst and has resulted in a lot of outrage with many hoping for it to be canceled.
While the series definitely seems to have set itself up for failure, in reality, it is quite different from what many expect it to be.
