Synopsis

Rakurou Hizutome, a second year high school student, is only interested in one thing: finding “shitty games” and beating them. His playing skills are unparalleled, and no game is that bad for him. So when he's introduced to the new VR game Shangri-La Frontier, he does what he does best: max out and skip the prologue to jump straight into the action. But will even a skilled player like Rakurou be able to discover all the secrets that Shangri-La Frontier hides?
