Writer Nyalra announced on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Tuesday that he is overseeing, crafting the original concept, and scripting a 13-episode television anime. Alongside the announcement, he shared a photo showcasing his involvement in the project, along with character design sheets, although he kept the anime’s title concealed.

He acknowledged a particular desire to revise the first episode, noting that the story’s outline became clearer to him as he progressed, especially in contrast to the initial stages.
