What the official credits confirm
The official Shirotan anime site credits Arisa Okada as director, names Lesprit for animation production and assigns series composition and script to the credited staff role shown on the page. Creative Yoko is listed for the original work.
- Director: Arisa Okada
- Animation production: Lesprit
- Planning production: TV Asahi and Shin-Ei Animation
- Japanese television start: October 2026 on TV Asahi
Why the production labels matter
Animation production and planning production are separate credits. The official page names Lesprit for the animation work while TV Asahi and Shin-Ei Animation share the planning-production line, so collapsing all three organisations into one 'studio' label would misrepresent the source.
What this announcement does not establish
A staff page does not demonstrate production quality, working conditions or how closely the finished series will resemble earlier Shirotan media. It also does not confirm an India streaming service, local audio or subtitle languages, episode count or an India release time.
- No India service claim
- No language claim
- No episode-count claim
- No prediction about production quality
Verification record
Anime.org.in checked the official staff, cast and broadcast sections on 10 August 2026. The page states an October 2026 Japanese television start on Saturdays at 4:29 p.m.; viewers outside Japan should wait for an accountable regional distributor or service announcement.
