<Full comments are listed below>

Director: Kabajima Yosuke
If “Fuuto PI” ever becomes a TV anime, I wanted to direct it no matter what. I had that feeling since “Kamen Rider W” was adapted into a manga as “Fuuto PI”, and I strongly hoped it would come true. “Kamen Rider Series”, including “Kamen Rider W”, helped me every time I was in trouble throughout my life. That is why I wanted to give something back to them. Luckly, I got the opportunity to do so. Together with my own love and thoughts, I will do my best producing it. I will recreate the atmosphere of “W”, so please do look forward to it!
