Strawberry Prince is being directed by Naoki Matsuura, known for his work on Liar Liar, and the script was written by Chika Suzumura, who previously worked on Burn The Witch. Yumi Nakamura, known for her work on Liar Liar and Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, is in charge of character design.

Strawberry Prince group was established in 2016 and quickly gained a following through its videos on various streaming platforms.
They have gone on to inspire a smartphone game, and they have been regularly touring across five arenas nationwide. In addition, they recently made their debut on Kōhaku Uta Gassen (“Red and White Song Contest”), Japan’s most-watched music television program, in December.
Strawberry Prince has graciously lent their talents to create theme songs for Yo-kai Gakuen Y: N to no Sōgū (Yo-Kai Academy Y: An Encounter With N) and Cardfight!! The Vanguard OverDress anime.
