An interview with ''Dragon Ball Super'' producer [[Sakoru Takami]] and director [[Ryōta Nakamura]] published near the end of the anime's broadcast run clarified some long-lingering questions about Jiren's development during the production process:<ref name="artisans"></ref>
{{
Quotation|'''Were Universe 11‘s Pride Troopers part of Toriyama-''sensei''‘s designs?'''

'''Nakamura''': They weren’t in his designs, but since Jiren and co. all wore the same red and black suits, he allowed us to flesh it out like that.

'''Takami''': In ''sensei''‘s initial rough draft, there was no information indicating Jiren’s personality. Since the tough opponents in ''Dragon Ball Super'' up until then had been nihilistic, cool characters like [[Hit]] or [[Zamasu]], we thought it might be best to make Jiren very talkative, so we came up with the background of him being a hero of justice. Jiren was central to this squadron of heroes.

'''Nakamura''': When we suggested that to Toriyama-''sensei'', he replied that “Jiren is a character who doesn’t speak.” It was then that Toriyama-''sensei'' sent us the backstory that his parents and martial arts master had been killed. He said that Jiren was this type of character, in contrast to Hit or Zamasu.

'''Takami''': And so the characterization of Jiren that we originally came up with was passed on to Toppo.

'''It was interesting how Toppo became a God of Destruction despite talking about justice all the time.'''

'''Nakamura''': Toriyama-''sensei''‘s background for Toppo included that he was a candidate for [[God of Destruction]], so we fleshed that out a bit. We wondered what to do with [[Dyspo]], but then once [[Bin Shimada]] was cast, he naturally took shape as a cocky character. With the concept for those three settled, we came up with the other members to match up with them.

[[Dragon Ball Super Episode 81|Episode 81]] had already aired, so it was quickly deduced that the summary should have instead named Toppo, who had been present at the Zen Exhibition Match since [[Dragon Ball Super Episode 78|Episode 78]].

Jiren is voiced by [[Eiji Hanawa]] in his first role for the ''Dragon Ball'' franchise.
