Synopsis

High school student Rakurou Hizutome has a peculiar hobby of playing poorly made games—ones that are unbalanced or are filled with so many bugs that make them borderline unplayable. The few who share his hobby might recognize him by his in-game name, Sunraku. For his next game, Rakurou is recommended Shangri-La Frontier, a popular and well-received virtual reality game as a breather from the terrible games he has been playing recently.

Once he boots up the game, Rakurou decides to sell off most of his starting gear to gain extra money, leaving himself with only a pair of boxers, a bird mask, and some weapons. He is instantly hooked as he meticulously levels up his avatar. However, after encountering some intimidating monsters, he realizes that he may have underestimated the challenge that a mainstream game can offer. As Rakurou progresses, he must draw on all the skills he has perfected from his previous gaming experience. Before long, Sunraku's eccentric playstyle takes Shangri-La Frontier by storm.

Anime about gaming. This is a type of anime that at the first sight you won't expect anything great and gonna dropped it soon as you have a little taste of this, but unfortunately you'll then feel like, "Wow, this is interesting".

The story isn't about an overpowered main character that get strong as easy like you snap your fingers. It shows of how hard gaming actually is.

Watching a try hard gamer playing a hard game, that's ...

Mixed Feelings
it is good, kinda.
i like and i don't like this anime, sometimes it kinda boring. the jokes are not that funny and its kinda cringy for me.. its average.
i enjoy it because "Action" genre and the animation is not that bad, anyone could enjoy the animation even if the story is boring or sum.. the characters react to situations and events in a realistic way in game but💀💀 i mean that was kinda strange and cringe to watch. the main characters tryna be funny but he was not. he just a silly blue bird naked, that avatar looks sucks

Main Story: There are many instances in the anime which have additional plot points, however it never seems to follow up on them - you're constantly thinking "so what?". The game mechanics are ...
