From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated!

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated! is a lighthearted isekai fantasy anime blending comedy, school life, and healing warmth into one charming package. Based on the manga by Ueyama Michio and produced by Ajiado, the series is helmed by director Takeuchi Tetsuya with series composition by Irie Shingo. Featuring Grace Auvergne and Anna Doll, this TV anime delivers a cozy and comedic fantasy experience for fans of feel-good isekai storytelling.

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated! follows the wildly comedic misadventures of Kenzaburou Tondabayashi, a 52-year-old government worker who wakes up after a traffic accident to discover he now inhabits the body of Grace Auvergne — a duke's daughter and the designated villainess of an otome game. Determined not to derail the happy endings meant for the younger characters around him, he resolves to embrace his new role as the story's antagonist. But playing a convincing villain turns out to be far more challenging than expected. His deeply ingrained instincts as a caring father keep bubbling to the surface at the worst moments, and to make things worse, he simply cannot keep track of all those unfamiliar foreign names. What unfolds is a charming and lighthearted story about a middle-aged man navigating the absurd gap between who he is on the inside and the villainess role the world expects him to play.
