"From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman" New Key Visual, PV

Premieres April, 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the ANN article for additional information. Synopsis from AniList:

Beryl Gardinant, a self-proclaimed “humble old man,” is a sword instructor at his dojo in a rural, backwater village. In his younger years, he dreamed of glory as a master swordsman, but those days are long behind him. Out of the blue, he receives a visit from a famous former pupil who brings him world-shattering news—he's been appointed as special instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order! With his life now turned upside down, Beryl travels to the capital and reunites with some of his former students: elite knights, an ace wizard, and even an adventurer who's attained the highest guild rank possible. But why do they all want his tutelage?! As far as he's concerned, they clearly don't need him anymore.

Can Beryl live up to his new position? And will he ever get a moment's peace away from his adoring students?!

Giving me Ossan Newbie Adventurer vibes. Or my Daughter Left the Nest and returned an S rank adventurer. Will have to check it out.

I don't know what you're talking about. I'm still a super young and fresh 90s kid... cries in middle-aged

I thought of exactly the same anime. They were both fun, but not amazing. I'll give it a watch. I conceptually enjoy the "old guy" shows but I haven't seen one I felt like rewatching. Sasaki and Peeps is the closest with that theme I really enjoyed.

Oh yeah, Sasaki and Peeps was good. Definitely enjoyed that series.
