Note: Crunchyroll decided to merge the 4th and 5th episode as episode 4. So episode 5 is 6, 6 is 7 and 7 is 8. That's why there is only 7 episodes on Crunchyroll

Top reasons
- Format continuity - Format (ONA) matches prior mainline entries
- Committee renewal track record - Lead committee members (LHL Culture, Heart & Soul Animation, Tencent Penguin Pictures) renew 14% of productions, above the catalogue average of 3%
- Cross-platform audience rating - Weighted audience rating 69.9
This is an anime original, not an adaptation, so there is no source material to run down - renewal turns on sales and popularity rather than runway.
