Shangri-La Frontier Returns For Season 2 in Fall 2024

The Series Is a Must-Watch for Fans of Video Games

Written by Katarina and illustrated by Ryosuke Fuji, Shangri-La Frontier is an award-winning manga with millions of copies in circulation and it is rather easy to see why the series is so popular. The story revolves around the titular VR game called Shangri-La Frontier and Rakuro Hizutome, better known as Sunraku who, after constantly playing trashy games full of bugs and glitches, acquires certain skills that surprisingly come in handy in his newest adventures in Shangri-La Frontier.
