About Heaven's Design Team: Idea 13

Heaven's Design Team: Idea 13 (天地創造デザイン部 特別編) blends comedy, fantasy and slice of life by Asahi Production (2021). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. The setup: Episode 13 that was streamed exclusively on Amazon. This time God's order is to "make five animals and combine all of them in the end".

Further in, the designers are stumped by this ultra unreasonable and difficult order. They each work their respective strengths and after some trial and error... What exactly is the animal they created...?!

With comedy at the core, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Junya Enoki as Shimoda and Junichi Suwabe as Mizushima. If you count yourself among viewers who want something light between heavier series, put it on your list. The run is 1 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
