After reading the English title of the series, fans got a wrong impression of what it’s going to be like. And let’s be honest, when we hear “If My Wife Became an Elementary School Student,” it’s easy to let your mind go to a problematic place.

However, manga readers beg you not to trust this instinct. This is not just a story of a grown man with a ten-year-old wife, this is a manga that explores themes such as grief and denial, and it will make its characters and you contemplate the idea of mortality and even the meaning of life.

That’s why fans are so upset with the series’ title, they think it doesn’t do it justice and makes a lot of readers stay clear of it, when in fact they shouldn’t, as this is a great series, capable of making you feel all sorts of things.

If My Wife Becomes an Elementary School Student is a wonderful drama that explores the trauma caused by loss, and manages to provide endearing and even sometimes hilarious moments at the same time.

Manga readers admit to shedding a couple of tears while reading it, and can’t wait to see the series animated to do it all over again.
