Hiromitsu Kanazawa (K series director, Seitokai Yakuindomo director) is directing the anime at Gaina, and is also writing and supervising the scripts. Asami Sodeyama (A Good Librarian Like a Good Shepherd) is designing the characters, and is also the chief animation director.
Universal Entertainment, a maker of pachi-slo (pachinko parlor slot machine) and pachinko games, conceived the "pachi-slo anthropomorphization comedy" concept. The manga imagines if Universal Entertainment's Hanabi (Fireworks), Versus, and Thunder V pachi-slo machines were girls working in a pachinko hall.
Story creator Shirogane and artist Mamimu launched the manga on Hero's Inc.'s Comiplex manga site in November 2019, and Hero's Inc. published the fourth compiled book volume in October 2021.
