Though categorized as a spin-off, the Rick and Morty anime still features Morty (Keisuke Chiba, Gabriel Regojo) and Rick (Yohei Tadano, Joe Daniels) as the two main characters, and many familiar support characters will be returning as well. The story is even reported as canon to the franchise.
This is because the franchise is set up to be a multiverse story. And, with it being the chaotic multiverse, pretty much anything can be canon.
So it’s not really a spin-off at all. In fact, when Jason DeMarco, who is in charge of action and anime for Adult Swim, was asked about the series by Inverse at the San Diego Comic-Con, he said that it wasn’t really a spin-off at all, stating, “This isn’t a spinoff, this is [Sano’s] reinterpretation of the characters and themes from the original. He had the freedom to interpret them how he wanted within the framework that was already laid down by the show.”
