On the topic of casting, regarding Rina Arashi, who was selected through auditions, Taniguchi praised her attitude, saying, "She knows that she doesn't need to present herself as a cute girl." He also revealed that to ensure overseas audiences could watch without discomfort, they adopted "2-frame animation" instead of the uniquely Japanese "3-frame animation," and in the ballet scenes, they pursued realism through motion capture and supervision by ballet choreographers, using an approach of "doing ordinary things in an ordinary way." MC Yuki Iwai of Haraichi marveled, "This was made with incredible attention to detail."

The program also featured the currently screening Eiga Doraemon Shin: Nobita no Kaitei Kiganjō, broadcasting special messages from promotional ambassador Airi Taira and Aruko & Peace (Yuki Hirako, Kenta Sakai), who made their voice acting debuts as underwater soldiers in the film. The interview was filled with laughter, including stories about their surprise when offered the role, behind-the-scenes tales of their first dubbing session where Hirako committed so fully that he said he "had muscle pain two days later," and Hirako's quirky answer that his favorite character is "Sneyoshi-niisan," which made the studio erupt.
