To accompany the announcement, Aniplex released a teaser trailer and key artwork showcasing the protagonist.
The announcement was also accompanied by a comment by Gnosia’s Lead Designer Toru “Mezukare” Kawakatsu, who mentions that he was deeply involved in the project as a producer from the start, including supervision of the formation of the animation team formation and final word on the content.
