This work, "Kaii to Otome to Spirited Away," has been decided to be made into an anime in 2024, but have you already looked into the staff and cast involved in the production of this work? The appearance of various attractive characters and mysterious depictions in the original work made this work popular, and it was decided to be made into an anime in the blink of an eye, but because of that, there are a lot of fans of the original work, and any fan of the original work will be wondering whether the story will be depicted in the same way as the original work. It would be a shock if your favorite work was made into an anime and turned out to be of low quality. However, considering that you don't know the quality of the work until it is broadcast, fans of the original work whose favorite work is being made into an anime will be worried about whether it is the work they expected. So, this time, I would like to introduce the staff and cast involved in the production of this work, "Kaii to Otome to Spirited Away," and delve deeper into whether the quality of this work as an anime work is guaranteed. By looking at the works that the staff and cast have been involved in in the past, you can roughly predict what kind of work it will be, so please check it out.
Original work by Nujima
The original author of this work is manga artist Nujima. This work has been serialized by Nujima since 2019 and is still ongoing. It has gained popularity due to mysterious incidents and attractive female characters that appear at key points, and it can be said that it is the attractive characters drawn by Nujima that make this work shine.
Debuted in 2016
Nujima is a manga artist who debuted in 2016 with "Singing Headphone Girl". It's surprising that this work, which debuted in 2016 and began serialization in 2019, was suddenly made into an anime. There's no doubt that he's a very precocious manga artist, so I think he'll continue to produce many hit works in the future. If you're a fan who read this work and liked it, be sure to take a look at Nujima's other works.

Director and Series Composition: Tomomitsu Mochizuki
The director and series composition of this work is Tomomitsu Mochizuki, an animator. The director is the person who brings together the various people in the anime work and completes it into a single work, and it can be said that he determines the overall quality of this work. In addition, the series composition is also a position that determines the overall composition of the work, so Mochizuki, who holds both positions, can be said to be the person most responsible for this work.
Veteran Animator
Mochizuki is a veteran animator who has been involved in many historical animation works such as "Doraemon" and "Ranma 1/2". The oldest work he directed was "Ninjaman Ippei" in 1982, so you can see that he has been active in the animation industry for over 40 years. As a very experienced animator, he will be very active as a director.

The character design for this work is handled by animator Takuya Tani. Character design is the role of solidifying the design of the characters in this work that will be drawn as an animated work, and the role is to design the attractive characters drawn in the original work so that they can be used effectively in the animated work. Since the characters in this work are very popular in the original work, it can be said that it is a very responsible position.
"Haikyu!!" " etc.
Tani has served as the animation director for works such as "Haikyu!!". "Haikyu!!" is a sports manga, so it is an animated work characterized by very smooth movements, and you can see the high level of skill of animation director Tani. "Haikyu!!" is also a work with popular characters, so I think that Tani, who was in charge of "Haikyu!!", will definitely be active as the character designer of this work.

Tani currently has his own X account, where he posts various information for his fans as an animator. Naturally, he will also post information about this work, so if you are a fan interested in information about this work, be sure to follow Tani's account.

Zero G is an animation production company that has been in charge of producing "Battery" and "Grand Blue" in the past. "Grand Blue" in particular has been highly popular, mainly among women, due to its high level of animation. This also shows that it is a very capable animation production company. I think there will be many works in this work that feature attractive characters like "Grand Blue", so I would like to pay attention to the expression in this area.
Many involved in Mochizuki's works
This is certainly the case with "Battery," but Zero G has been involved in many of Director Mochizuki's works to date. Mochizuki is the animation director for this film, so it's clear that they are a very compatible pair. I think Mochizuki is also quite used to working with Zero G, so I think it can be said that the director and the animation production company will communicate well with each other during production.
