Based on the manga by Hotondoshindeiru, it is directed by Shigeki Kawai at Studio Atelier Pontdarc. Series composition is handled by Kenta Ihara, and character designs are by Kazuhiro Ota, who also serves as chief animation director.

Yen Press has licensed it and describes the story as follows:

Seventeen years ago, Takafumi's uncle fell into a coma, but now he's back like a man risen from the grave. Soon, Takafumi discovers two bizarre things: His uncle values video games above all else, and while he was in a coma, he was actually transported to another world as a heroic guardian! Now, Takafumi must not only live with a literally magical uncle but also catch him up on two decades of history—smartphones, high-speed internet, modern anime tropes... and the traumatic outcome of the '90s console wars!
