Staff Comment

Director: Yosuke Hatta Comment
Although the first part of the original story has been completed, even as I write this, I am looking back at the last episode and my eyes are burning with excitement.
The characters who are straight to their feelings, for better or worse, are so painful to watch that I found myself crying, laughing, and snickering at the exciting scenes like, "If only I could live like this! I was so excited to see the characters who were so honest about their feelings, both good and bad, that I found myself crying, laughing, and snorting, "If only I could live like them!
I hope to deliver such scenes and stories to you in the anime as well.
I hope that I can repay the "Powwah! and I hope that many people will enjoy the anime as much as I do.

Series Composition: Taku Kishimoto Comment
One week before writing this comment, we had the postrecording of the first episode. It was the first time I saw the images, and they were far beyond what I had imagined while writing the scenario.
It was a more than adequate representation of the original story, which has a heartwarming picture but an unforgiving story.
I felt happy to have been able to participate in this work.
