Shiro Usazaki was the artist for Act-Age until it was abruptly canceled following allegations of assault by writer Tatsuya Matsuki. Usazaki has illustrated several one-shots over the years, such as Engan no Cyclops (2020), Ryu no Eigakan (2022), and Kimi to Aoi Yoru no (2023), but this will be her first major feature-length work in four years.
Meanwhile, Osamu Nishi is best known for his work Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun. The manga has been serialized in Akita Shoten's Weekly Shonen Champion magazine since March 2017, and has been adapted into a TV anime for three seasons so far.
