Like its predecessor anime, the spin-off is directed by Yōsuke Hatta and Makoto Fuchigami with Taku Kishimoto returning as the writer. Atsuko Nozaki will be handling the character designs and MAYUKO is returning to compose the music for the series.
Ousama Ranking Fan Wiki explains that the “special is described as a collection of shorts, showing past instances of courage and personal growth by the cast of Ousama Ranking. Several of these shorts appear to be based on bonus chapters of the Ousama Ranking manga, which are often used to give background information, lore, and updates to various storylines in the manga.”
The anime is based on a coming-of-age adventure comedy manga created by Sōsuke Tōka and published by Enterbrain in their ‘Manga Hack’ magazine since 2017. BookLive publishes an English version in North America.
At the 2022 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, Bojii won the coveted title of “Best Boy.”
