Wow...when was the last time Okiura appeared on a TV anime?

Also, it's nice that this show finally got some character acting animation...

who would think with all the mess going on behind the production of this show they can invite Okiura of all people, great scene nonetheless.

The entire episode is handled by Hathaway's team. He prob wasn't handed an individual invite but was more like an (inhouse) outsourcing job while the team waits for the pre-production of the next movie to be done.

Cool to see Okiura on a TV anime

it's great to know he will appear on Hathaway movies again, though I'm a bit confused about Okiura's contract, is he inhouse Sunrise now?

So good, I wonder if they haven't started Hathaway 2 could the team appear on the second cour? It would be a pretty tight schedule tho...

All his latest credits have been on Sunrise/Gundam works. Hathaway, one of the last two G-Reco movies and now G-Witch.

didn't he help a bit for the Deer King movie?

Deer King's production was before Hathaway, as crazy as that sounds

Bahi JD suddenly tweeted "Okiura Hiroyuki" and of course deleted it after a while. I think he has the exact confirmation.

that's likely just bahi being bahi, though I don't think this needs a presume as there is only 1 hiroyuki okiura on this planet

Several people involved have publicly praised Keisuke Kasai's role in this episode. He was only credited as assistant PA, but he's a member of Hathaway's team and the one who pushed for the inclusion of all these super high-profile animators from that team and somehow made it work. Admissions that this was all made with no schedule whatso-fucking-ever too but well, that's G-Witch for you https://twitter.com/ta_akitsu/status/1606931843286458370

Really goes to show just how important the PA role is. I wish it wasn't so overlooked (I'm guilty of this myself to be honest...)

to be fair this many veterans working on a show is often the animation producers doing rather than a production assistant(an assistant one at that) but youre right it is often overlooked

Yeah, given that he wasn't even *the* PA (or rather wasn't one of them, they have multiple ones per episode which makes sense in a chaotic scenario) and how hard everyone is saying he worked to somehow make this possible with no time to speak of, this feels like a pretty extraordinary "someone really wanted this to happen even though it's not really their job nor a natural turn for the production". No disagreeing with the conclusion tho, management staff are unsung heroes.

My liege.
