I wonder if there even is a rights holder to this besides Shaft. There's an old interview in this thread where Shaft's president talks about how they are handling all the marketing and website maintainance for Prism Nana themselves instead of leaving it to a production company like Aniplex. Shaft also seemingly made every single creative decision by themselves with no input from the "certain firm" whose contact was the original genesis for the whole project.

Reading between the lines, I get the sense that Daxel only paid for rights to use the seven MVs in a pachislot machine, leaving the IP in Shaft's hands, as opposed to something like Madoka where Aniplex has a major controlling share in the whole property. It would help explain some of the oddities in Prism Nana's marketing, like the complete disconnect between's Shaft website for the MVs/overall project and Daxel's website for the pachislot machine.
