I'm really looking forward to the supposed henshin sling bag. I even wonder if the strap will be an adjustable nylon strap and not that plastic belt strap thing, because ergonomics and so people of all sizes could wear it around. Because no way that plastic strap thing is comfortable around the torso. It could be done, I don't doubt that, but likely uncomfortable.

Yeah, Urobuchi hit it big mainstream-wise with Madoka and Fate/Zero before Gaim iirc, and after Gaim he was invested in the Thunderbolt Fantasy series, which he does in collaboration with a puppet theater production in Taiwan, real intricate stuff. Personally, it feels like what GARO is to Keita Amemiya.
Muto is probably busy as we speak writing the Samurai Troopers/Ronin Warriors sequel that's expected to start airing in Japan next January. And yes, Muto already had a hit show pre-Build with the Densha Otoko tv drama during the 2000s.
As for Takahashi, looks like he's done anime stuff as well, notably the recent Lupin the Third shows and movies.
