Wish I enjoyed it more, but the single main joke wore thin by the end of the first episode, though there were some okay bits. Feels like a 4-coma adaptation with how many mini scenes play out. Also the first time in a long while I've been torn on whether a few jokes count as incest jokes or not? The main gag is that grandpa used to be a hottie, apparently, and gets more of that attention than grandma is comfortable with from the daughter and granddaughter (though she has her own fans). It's strange, but never exploitative, and the sparse animation helps keep it that way. Still has some wholesome moments, too. May be worth a look (the granddaughter and her boyfriend-to-be are really cute), but I couldn't see myself finishing the season.

Episode 07

--------------




This series is cute and fun.

The timing of the old-form is weird at times, and now that they've established that they can switch forms on demand as long as they sleep, I totally expected Gramps to change form whilst on the beach.

I thought Shouta's shark tooth design would get annoying, but it's an alright dude.

Episode 11

Fun, wholesome series. At the end of the New Years gathering I was thinking that gramps wouldn't actually make it to the next year and that this would be his last.

Mino is my favourite design of the lot.
