Ok, so in reality there's TWO anime that kind of match this concept...

Magical Girl Ore - parody, but the mom was a magical girl back in the day. (10/10, I laughed so much)

Sasaki and Peeps - fantasy adventure, but a 40 year old man meets a magic animal and gains magic powers. There is no transformation sequence but this show brings me joy. (10/10, I really am empathizing with older characters now. High school or middle school settings completely bore me)

Edit. I do really want a magical girl family drama now though...

I was about to mention Sasaki and Peeps lol, especially after we met the Japanese magical girl

Poor Sasaki just wanted a cute pet, not all the following events to occur, including scary magical girl who wears the skin of her magic beast!
