Gainax veteran and Trigger co-founder Hiroyuki Imaishi (Gurren Lagann, Panty & Stocking, Kill La Kill, Space Patrol Luluco) is an established fan of American comics. With a group of other anime luminaries, he did a pair of Superhero doujinshi, where he contributed illustration tributes to Marvel's Nextwave Agents of H.A.T.E. and Dark Horse's The Umbrella Academy. The new X-Men Apocalypse movie opened in Japan this week, and after catching it, Imaishi was quite stricken by Psylocke.

Cast with notable anime resumes include Shinichiro Miki as Magneto, Noriko Kuwashima as Moira MAcTaggert, Hiroyuki Yoshino as Quicksilver, Mamiko Noto as Jean Grey, Ryohei Kimura as Cyclops, Satoshi Tsuruoka as Havok, Kouki Uchiyama as Nightcrawler, and Hiroki Takahashi was William Styker.
