Kaiho has had experience teaming up with Kazutaka Kodaka. While the original plot for the anime Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School was planned by Kodaka, Kaihō was in charge of revising the scripts to adapt them into the anime series. Kaihō was chosen by Lerche to write the anime based on his knowledge with the franchise.[2] For Akudama Drive, Kaihō and Kodaka had multiple talks in the making of the anime's script and left it to director Tomohisa Taguchi to decide how to handle it once finishing it.[3] In an Anime Trending poll, Kaihō won the "Best in Original Screenplay" award.[4]
