Jō Nakajima is directing the anime at Anima (Cat Shit One: The Animated Series, Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV), alongside newly-revealed director Yoshiyuki Okada. Yasuo Ohtagaki (Moonlight Mile, Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt) is designing the characters (Netflix previously revealed a partnership with Ohtagaki and other creators in February). Ren Kikuchi (Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV) is the CG supervisor. MONACA is composing the music.
The series is based on Netflix's live-action science-fiction series of the same name. The work will "explore new elements of the story mythology." Dai Satō (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Eureka Seven, Cowboy Bebop, Ergo Proxy) and Tsukasa Kondō are credited as writers for the project.
Netflix announced its partnership with Anima in March 2019.
