Each animated short will be two minutes long. The story will take place 100 years after the world was destroyed in the 21st century due to environmental destruction and depletion of resources.

The cast includes:
- Riko Kohara as Karin
- Miku Itō as Mei
- Ai Furihata as Cacao
- Rin Aira as Haruko
Masatsugu Arakawa (I'm glad I could keep running, Rose O'Neill Kewpie, Medarot Damashii) is directing the shorts, and MMDGP and Jūmonji are credited for production. Hiroko Fukuda (PriPara, Hayate the Combat Butler, Shōnen Ashibe GO! GO! Goma-chan) is writing the scripts. Mugi Tanaka (original character designs for Urahara) is designing the characters.
