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.

Review: Shangri-La Frontier

Shangri-La Frontier is a fun and exciting show with a great main character. The MC is interesting and his journey through the game world is really engaging. The battles are cool and well-done, making them fun to watch. The animation is good, with smooth and detailed action scenes. The story keeps me interested and makes me look forward to each new episode. The world in the show is well-built and feels immersive. The quality of the animation is consistently high, which adds to the enjoyment. I'm excited to see what happens next in the story. Overall, Shangri-La Frontier is a great show for ...

Mixed Feelings
5.5/10

I am very confused how this got a 8.07/10, this show is extremely mid by todays standard, Okay graphics and animation, okay character design, sub par plot, not great pacing, and tropes up the butt. However the thing that kept me going was the use of early 2000/2010 gaming humor that I dont hear alot these days, as someone that played alot of Vanilla wow, RuneScape, Ultima Online and FFXI some of the plot devices were amusing enough. I would say the first 13 or so episodes were a solid 6/10... maybe even a 6.5/10... but around episode 15 I realized there was a drop ...

Do know why have positive reviews to be honest, its a pretty average and mediocre anime with anime above average animation, there is no real danger like solo leveling, there is no drama not complicated stuff, nor romance, not funny stuff it just a very ok anime virtual reality game with a vey forgettable plot and characters, anime fans need to be more demanding and ask for better stuff, this is not good, and they are giving good reviews only because of the pressure other otakus are putting in webs like mu animelist, and that's just sad af to be honest, that's not good and ...
