What is Shangri-La Frontier about?
Shangri-La Frontier anime is based on the fantasy adventure web novel series written by Katarina. The manga adaptation was illustrated by Ryosuke Fuji, and it has been serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine since July 2020. Kodansha USA licensed the series in English, and Crunchyroll streamed the first season as it aired in Japan. The streamer shared a story description for Shangri-La Frontier:
When was the last time I played a game that wasn't crap?" This is a world in the near future where games that use display screens are classified as retro. Anything that can't keep up with state-of-the-art VR technology is called a "crap game," and you see a large number of crap games coming out. Those who devote their lives to clearing these games are called "crap-game hunters," and Rakuro Hizutome is one of them. The game he's chosen to tackle next is Shangri-La Frontier, a "god-tier game" that has a total of thirty million players. Online friends... An expansive world... Encounters with rivals... These are changing Rakuro and all the other players' fates! The best game adventure tale by the strongest "crap game" player begins now!
Crunchyroll is streaming Shangri-La Frontier. For the latest information about Shangri-La Frontier, check out the official website of the anime.
