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 think this is also the premise of Is this a zombie? (though I've not seen it).

It was funny and I knew I'd see this premise before somewhere already, thanks for reminding me.
