Emmanuel Gorinstein conceived the series in 2000, initially as an adult animation project.

By then, the series was repositioned to cater to a 9-14 demographic.

Two years later in May 2004, Canadian animation studio 9 Story Entertainment which was launched two years prior in September 2002 joined the upcoming hybrid animated series as a co-producer turning the series as a French/Canadian co-production as Method Films and the Canadian animation studio signed a deal with Nickelodeon's digital channel Nicktoons to broadcast the series in the US.

The first part of the animation was produced by Attitude Studios of Paris, France, with large amounts of facial animation work and rendering outsourced to DQ Entertainment in India.

Subsequently, the later part of the season has been completely animated and finalized in DQ Entertainment of Hyderabad, India, using a completed motion capture shot in Attitude Studios.
