Notes
  1. Although Gambit is credited for the main Animation Production (アニメーション制作) responsibilities, Gambit itself is not an animation company, but rather a casting company. The creative studio Risemore and CG studios Studio Bokan and Type Zero, although each credited as Production Assistance (制作協力), must then be responsible for the series' animation.
