She decided to audition when seeing the original series and the anime, as she became a fan of it. Ogata describes him as an attractive character due to how stronger he becomes when interacting with others. Ogata herself said she would like to cherish the original image and create her own image of Yuta with all the hearts of the team in good faith. In casting Megumi Ogata, Gege Akutami, envisioned the character as a "neutral, soft, and kind, and there is also a big emotional swing and head." Ogata's name was mentioned as an example of an actor close to that, and in response to that, the director Sunghoo Park and the anime staff unanimously decided to cast her.
