## Executive Summary & Cultural Positioning

Re:Creators is a Japanese anime television series produced by Troyca that aired from April to September 2017. The series follows a high school student named Sota Mizushino who becomes involved in a conflict between various characters from manga, anime, and video games. These fictional figures manifest in the real world, leading to a situation where they view their creators as god-like beings. Sota is initially transported into his favorite anime before returning to Tokyo with the series heroine.

The series was created by Rei Hiroe and features a voice cast including Daiki Yamashita, Inori Minase, Mikako Komatsu, and Katsuyuki Konishi.
