Synopsis
Rakurou Hizutome is a high school student who has a strange fondness for badly made video games. Known online as Sunraku, he enjoys titles that are full of bugs and unbalanced mechanics. On someone's advice, he decides to try Shangri-La Frontier, a highly popular virtual reality game, to get a break from his usual choices. Once he enters the game, Rakurou sells off most of his starting equipment for extra money, keeping only a pair of boxers, a bird mask, and a few weapons. He quickly gets absorbed in the game, carefully raising his character's level. But after fighting some tough enemies, he starts to understand the real challenge that comes with a mainstream title. Using his wide experience with games, Rakurou makes his way through the game. His unusual way of playing soon catches people's attention in Shangri-La Frontier.
