- A-1 Pictures will animate the feature and the project is produced by Aniplex, Netmarble, D&C Media, Kakao Piccoma and Crunchyroll.
- Attendees at A-1 Pictures' Anime Expo panel saw a teaser key visual and a promotional concept video, but the companies did not announce a release date or plot details.
- Publishers and outlets report that the movie likely does not replace a future Season 3 and that a late-2026 season release is being speculated by some outlets, though producers have not confirmed any schedule.
