Frequent Godzilla designer Shinji Nishikawa will design Godzilla for the series, and Hiroshi Maruyama will design the space monsters. Ishiguchi is also credited with the mecha design.
Ishiguchi provided design work for Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online and its sequel, The Marginal Service, and Fairy gone, among other titles.
