The hour-long special is set to serve as the finale for the original story. No details about the plot of the special have been revealed yet.

Viewers were surprised by the sudden recap episode towards the end of the show, as anime originals tend to lack those. That was probably because of stuff happening behind the scenes.

CloverWorks was not able to satisfyingly conclude the original story, probably due to overworking their employees, as the studio was also working on The Promised Neverland and Horimiya at the same time.
