Hideaki Nakano on Directing Wistoria Season Two: Consistency and Mood
Hideaki Nakano, who storyboarded and directed episodes in Wistoria: Wand and Sword season one, was promoted to director for season two after chief director Tatsuya Yoshihara became too busy. Nakano focused on maintaining consistent quality across the season, personally reworking layouts on episode 21 and using art boards to control mood and coloring. He cited Takahiro Ōmori's precise layouts as an influence.
