Shangri-La Frontier is directed by Toshiyuki Kubooka and features animation production by C2C. The series will broadcast in Japan beginning in October 2023, and will also stream on Crunchyroll.

 

The original Shangri-La Frontier web novel is written by Katarina, and an English language version of the manga adaptation with artwork by Ryosuke Fuji is also available from Kodansha USA. Crunchyroll describes the story of 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!
