Director Hiroyuki Nakao and producer P.I.C.S. are handling the original creation and planning of the mecha series. Eisaku Kubonouchi (Carole & Tuesday) is responsible for the original character design.

The Bullbuster project began as a concept book distributed at the COMITIA convention in 2017. Nakao began penning a novel on the Kakuyomu website in October 2018. Kadokawa published the first volume in December 2018 and the second and latest volume in September 2019, featuring illustrations by Kubonouchi.

Synopsis
A young engineer, Tetsurou Okino, is transferred to a vermin extermination company called Hato Industries with the new robot Bullbuster that he developed himself. There, Hato Industries, a small company with little money, and its president Tajima are against a mysterious creature. There are fuel costs for robots, labor costs for pilots, and of course, wasting even a single bullet is unacceptable. Between their ideals of extermination and the reality of budgets, what does the future hold for Hato? (Source: Translated, edited from official website)

cool looking original mecha anime project by studio nut. The key visual looks good, promising looking project. Isn't this just patlabor, but with the emphasis being on the "labor" part. With the presence of a mysterious creature, I suppose this might as well be a patlabor plot.

More mecha is always welcome, and this seems like a tongue in cheek series I might actually enjoy. Sounds Dai-Guard-ish.
