The project is made with Village Studio, Murata published the first part of his anime in two different videos on his profile, without audio but with the text in Japanese with what the characters are saying.

He tries to redeem value from him as a kappa by going all-in on the lottery and winning the grand prize of a package tour to India. But he gets into trouble as soon as he arrives at the airport.
