- | ==== Development/ | ||
- | The second film of Professor Yuko proved to be an even bigger success than the first, making almost 350 million in gross. Director Kayo therefore asked if Marcus Elester, the spiritual creator of Professor Yuko, had any more adventures that we wanted told on the big screen. Elester began work on a third series of stories, but also urged Kayo to use unused footage from the other films, to keep the original story in. Karathi Migotha and Ronald Frankton, both screenwriters of the previous movies, worked with Elester to directly translate the story to a screenplay. | ||

- | Many aspects were introduced to the story, beginning with the idea of it being a prequel. This allowed Yuko to be paired with other companions and new villains. Most of the story of Elester was kept intact, a departure from uch of the work on the previous film, but Elester also introduced some darker motives and 'grey areas' for his characters, which went into the screenplay. Kayo also urged for some characters to return in a supporting fashion, such as Yuko's father Mio and his mentor Gennai, who were the stars of the first movies. | ||

- | Producer Higaro Mate returned to produce the film after he left for the second instalment to produce two other films. Vibrant Cloud Filmworks remained attached due to their expertise in construction and set design, while Firefly retained the role of main producer. Many other crew, such as the camera operator Högmann, production designer Maro, and costume designer Cagnasteriff, | ||
