Toei Animation's original CG animation project.
Kojiro Shindo. Cabinet Office Director-General for Policy Planning, is at Haneda Airport for a business trip. While the plane is on the runway, a giant structure suddenly appears out of thin air. The plane carrying Shindo and 251 passengers is taken undamaged inside the giant structure. After everyone disembarks, a man who looks like an ordinary human being shows up. He assures those from the plane that they're not in any danger. Shindo asks him to identify himself and explain the situation. Then the outside of the structure is displayed on a large screen, and at the same time, every passenger's cell phone starts ringing all at once. On each cell phone screen is a message from this man, to every one of Japan's citizens: "I, Yaha-kui zaShunina, hereby notify you that I am going to intervene in Japan's internal affairs."
What is this young man's goal? And will Shindo manage to become an intermediary between Japan and the Anisotorons...?

Where it came from
KADO: The Right Answer, known in Japan as Seikai Suru Kado, was produced by Toei Animation and premiered in 2017. The series was conceptualized by novelist Mado Nozaki, who aimed to blend hard science fiction with philosophical inquiry, focusing on the arrival of a mysterious, monumental cube in Tokyo. The narrative explores the diplomatic and existential implications of an advanced extraterrestrial intelligence interacting with human society, marking an ambitious departure from traditional mecha or action-oriented animation typically associated with the studio.
The series is notable for its pioneering use of 3D computer-generated imagery as the primary medium for character animation, a stylistic choice intended to provide a unique visual texture to the human-alien dialogue. Directed by Kazuya Murata, who is known for his detailed character-driven stories, the show sought to prioritize intellectual tension and political maneuvering over combat. While it received significant attention for its innovative production techniques and high-concept premise, it remains a polarizing entry in the studio's catalog due to its shift in thematic focus during the final episodes.
