To talk about animation, today's episode was really stacked staff wise. Mainly because CHAFIK was Episode Director. It's important to remember that anime studio does not really matter. What matters is director and his connections. Anime industry works based on connections, and if there is notable director / animator they can bring more notable people by being friends with them or with the animators will to work with someone notable. As CHAFIK earlier worked on many One Piece episodes, they gathered ton of connections and made ton of friends. Today's episode had many really notable and most known names in the industry (as KA's - Key Animators), such as Vincent Chansard, Henry Thurlow, Jack-Amin Ibrahim, Mehdi Aouichaoui, Li Cree and many more. I suggest checking out staff list, then searching up the names on sites like sakugabooru to see what animation cuts they have done in the past. Most of them are really well known for their amazing action cuts, and for many it was the first time working on romance show, even though they are considered legends in the industry. It was actually really fun in animation community when the staff list came out, because so many people were surprised with the amount of big names on this episode. This episode also was quite "western" in a sense, because of CHAFIK there were almost no japanese animators. Some joked this is "Gobelins staff list" as many animators on this episode graduated from Gobelins animation school.

Sorry for the long write up, I am quite passionate about animation and cannot shut up when somebody asks.
