Hiragana Danshi is one of the projects that started from a monthly variety show on Nihon TV titled "Ichara," which gets ideas for 2D characters from the audience. The project eventually received a smartphone game titled Itsura no Koe, which launched in October of last year, but was recently announced to end service in April of this year. A promotional poster for the movie was teased during the Animate Girls Festival last November.

During the screening, the hosts of the show, Bakarhythm (also scriptwriter), Yuusuke Koide (Base Ball Bear), and Nemu Yumemi (Dempagumi.inc), as well as Seiji Mizushima (Director), Yuki Kaji (A), and Shougo Yano (No), will appear on the stage for a talk show.
