The series was directed by Akiyuki Simbo based on the series composition by Kenichi Kanemaki based on the manga by Koji Kumeta.
Nozomi Entertainment previously picked up a new property for release as they announced the acquisition of the Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei series back in the summer of 2019.
The series was at one time licensed by Media Blasters but that contract was terminated.
