The director is also credited for the series composition. In the first season, Yasuhiro Kimura (CHAOS;CHILD, Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, New Game!) was responsible for storyboarding.
Character designers Takao Sano (The Honor Student at Magic High School) and Keiichi Sano (Absolute Duo, Strike The Blood Seasons 1-4) were replaced by new artist Yasukazu Shouji (animation director on multiple Pokemon movies).
Japanese music production group TOMISIRO (Macross Delta) created the music.

Restaurant To Another World manga/light novel series compared to the anime
Like many isekai adventures, the story began life in 2013 as a self-published web novel on the Let’s Become Novelists (Shousetsu-ka ni Narou) website.
Starting in February 2015, Shufunotomo’s Hero Bunko label began releasing the light novel adaptation by author Junpei Inuzuka and illustrator Katsumi Enami. As of March 2019, the light novel series was up to Volume 5.
North American publisher Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the official English translation of the book series. As of January 2021, the English version was caught up with Volume 5.
Starting in 2017, artist Takaaki Kugatsu began adapting the story in the Restaurant To Another World manga series. Serialized in Square Enix’s Young Gangan magazine, the manga ended in June 2019 with Volume 4.
North American publisher Yen Press licensed the official English translation of the Restaurant To Another World manga series. As of February 2021, the English version was caught up with Volume 4.
A new Restaurant to Another World: Western Cuisine Nekoya manga series (Isekai Shokudou: Youshoku no Nekoya) by artist Yamizawa Morozawa launched on April 26, 2021. An official English translation of the new manga hasn’t been announced yet.
The first season of the Restaurant To Another World anime matched up pretty closely to the manga series. Each episode adapted two chapters although some chapters were skipped and the order of events rearranged.
All in all, the finale, Isekai Shokudou Episode 12, found a stopping point corresponding to manga Chapters 27 through 29.
That means the Restaurant To Another World Season 2 anime will probably catch up with the manga and adapt all the currently available chapters. That also means the second season will likely only be a single cour again.
Unfortunately, anime fans will have to wait until the Restaurant To Another World Season 2 release date to watch what happens next. Stay tuned!
