Behind the scenes of Edens Zero season 2

The chief director of the anime at J.C. Staff, Shinji Ishihara (Fairy Tail, Log Horizon), oversaw the first season, while Yūshi Suzuki (episode director for Fairy Tail season 3) directed the anime. However, Suzuki passed away on September 9, 2021, leaving a void in the production team. The series scripts of the anime were overseen and written by Mitsutaka Hirota (known for Zoids Wild and Rent-A-Girlfriend), while the animation characters were designed by Yurika Sako (known for her key animation work on Food Wars! The Third Plate).

Exploring the storyline of the anime and manga adaptation of Edens Zero

The anime is based on the manga of the same name by Hiro Mashima (Fairy Tail, Rave Master), which debuted in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in June 2018. The manga is published in English by Kodansha USA Publishing, available in both digital and print formats. The storyline revolves around a boy named Shiki, who lives his entire life among machines in an abandoned amusement park called Granbell Kingdom. When a girl named Rebecca and her cat companion Happy visit the park, Shiki's life changes forever. Together with his new friends, Shiki must embark on a space adventure to escape his dangerous homeland and explore the cosmos.
