    The anime series was announced by Adult Swim on July 20, 2023, and will be directed by Shinichirō Watanabe, most notable for directing the Cowboy Bebop anime television series.[2] Chad Stahelski, who is notable for directing the John Wick film franchise, is designing the action sequences.[5] For music composition, the series will feature a score by jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington, and producers, DJs, and musicians Floating Points and Bonobo.[5] Animation for the series will be done by MAPPA while Sola Entertainment handles general production.[2][6]

    A teaser trailer for the series was shown at Adult Swim's "Toonami on the Green" panel at San Diego Comic-Con two days later on July 22.[7] During the presentation, the production staff stated that the project is planned to be completed by 2024, but did not promise that the series would release in that year.[8]
