Update: The project is planned as a television series, and the planning meetings began three years ago about the time Imaishi was working on Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt . Hiromi Wakabayashi ( Gurren Lagann production designer, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt conceptual planner) created the finishing special effects on the drawing that Imaishi himself drew.
