The first topic of the talk was "What I feel and think about the production since Season 1.

I felt like I was trying to fulfill the wish of Yufumi Imai (who was in charge of the action drawing director)," said Araki. The scene that was introduced in the talk show at the selection screening held in Tsukuba in January was the one that was the talk of the town because of its "well-done animation," and Araki said, "I asked Imai-kun to create an important scene first, and then we worked on it. We worked in the same way," he said. This episode showed how strongly he felt about his staff.

The episode was low in calories as a drawing, but it made me cry. I thought again, 'This is the kind of work I wanted to do,'" he said sincerely.

Lastly, looking ahead to the latest work ("Season 3" in the latter half of the season) scheduled to start airing in April 2019, Director Araki said, "To emphasize the sense of comeback to 'Season 1,' there are arranged songs used in 'Season 1,' so that you can feel like you are going back in time, and also that it will be a total I believe that this work is a kind of a compilation of all the songs.
