Production
Production of the film began in the winter of 2016 when Hat, Chaossy, and Bagel traveled to Japan to meet with creators of certain popular anime like JoJo's Bizarre Adventures, Dragon Ball Z, Highschool of the Dead, Pokemon, among others and negotiate contracts so that they could recreate the likeliness of the anime in the movie. Most of them approved, while others declined.

During the trip, Chaossy went to Madhouse for help on animating the project, and because Madhouse helped Chaossy on projects like The Syndicate Anime, Drift King: Next Generation Drifters, Deathblade, and more famously for the Xelphos saga, they accepted to help.

Chaossy also went to other studios, like Sunrise, Toei Animation, and OLM for help on some of the scenes that feature their anime. After the trip, Chaossy posted on Twitter that he was working on something that will be released in the next few years, leading speculation that it would be a new series. But a week after that, Bagel posted that he and Xelphos will direct a film that will be released in 2018, and later on it was announced that the film will be delayed until June 2019. Although, as the production process sped up, the film was going to be put forward a few months, to November of 2018.

Production officially started in November 2016 and ended in early September of 2018. After that, Typewriter Productions did the post-production of the film, along with Firebasket Studios.

In February of 2018, it was announced that the animation phase is ending.
