Mangaka Tatsuki Fujimoto commented about this movie:
This is a work that I created to force myself to digest things that I couldn’t digest inside of me. I don’t know if I was able to draw it or not, but I am grateful that so many people were involved in turning this work into a movie. Director Oshiyama is a monster animator that most anime otakus don’t know about, so as an otaku, I’m looking forward to seeing this work on screen.
