I just watched the studio tour with Rena Motomura (Coco’s VA). You can really tell the staff feels the "pressure" of living up to Kamome Shirahama’s god-tier art.

They actually created real-life versions of the pointed hats and costumes to use as physical references for how the fabric should fold and move. They even have a staff member with a similar build to Qifrey wear the mantle.

They showed a stack of storyboards, and Episode 5 was absolutely massive, it was a literal brick.
