The original Shangri-La Frontier manga by Ryosuke Fuji (art) and Katarina (story) adapts the web novel by the latter, which has been serialized on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website since May 2017. The manga adaptation is published in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine, and it was also licensed in English by Kodansha USA.
The story follows Rakuro Hizutome, a player going by the name of Sunraku, who loves playing ‘shitty games’ and beating them despite all their bugs and flaws. He then finds a ‘god-tier’ game, Shangri-La Frontier, which he then learns to enjoy, meeting some old gamer friends and looking forward to discovering the most interesting features in the huge world and beating the strongest opponents.
