Life Lessons with Uramichi Oniisan (うらみちお兄さん, Uramichi oniisan) is an anime series based on Gaku Kuze's manga of the same name. The adaptation was first announced in a video promoting the fourth manga volume in October 2019. It was originally slated for 2020 but was delayed due to production issues. The anime eventually premiered on July 6, 2021.
Plot
Freedom, spirit, hopes and dreams… There's a lot that children have that adults don't. 31-year-old Uramichi Omota faces this depressing reality working on the children's show Together with Maman, and his similarly miserable colleagues don't make it any easier. Although Uramichi puts on a happy face to lead exercises, his true feelings often slip through the cracks when he teaches the kids important life lessons.
