Why did it change from Drive to Fugaku all of a sudden? Is there any news that I missed?

Episode 1 did not credit Drive under the animation Production section. It was Fugaku Inc.

Most likely there are multiple studios working on this anime! Drive probably animated one of the later episodes!

It's strange the clips chosen from both the trailer and these promos that involve the next episodes, it seems that we will have a drop quality, which is very sad because the first episode is very consistent...

We don't know since nobody related to the show has commented on this but we can assume that the original studio, Drive, withdrew from the production at some point during the 5 year production hell.

Safest assumption is simply that Drive gave up on the production because of how demanding it was. Would be a good explanation for the long wait.

In other words, you? Because Drive was credited for production before when the project was announced, yet not only does episode 1 not feature any Drive-related staff, but it credits Fugaku for production, and one of the animation producers is their own representative director, showing the overall management is in different hands. At least go check your info before trying to play the smartass.

2nd episode has credited Studio Akatsuki. Originally It was confirmed to be a collaboration between Drive and Akatsuki. Its likely a collaboration between Drive, Akatsuki, Fugaku and maybe one more studio.
