Anime studio 8-Bit's founder and former representative director Tsutomu Kasai assisted in the studio's establishment.
Igarashi has recently been in the spotlight for directing the "Lop & Ocho" short in the Star Wars: Visions anthology anime last year, and also solo key animated the first ending credits sequence for the Jujutsu Kaisen anime. He is also directing a music video for Twin Engine, Good Smile Company, and Max Factory's Plantopia project, which will debut at Good Smile Company's Smile Fest 2022 event on August 6-7.
