- The same English cast will voice the characters, as well as the Japanese cast.
- The animation production will be either equal or different from both FLCL, Ghost in the Shell and Gurren Lagann.
- The release dates are unlike any 2-part movie, but like the "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" movie kind.
- Atsushi Nishigori does the character design to look like Panty and Stocking and Gurren Lagann combined.
