Series Synopsis
Ichirou Suzuki (voiced by Shun Horie) is a video game programmer, and he has entered the death march for his latest project. Overworked and stressed, Ichirou breathes a sigh of relief upon finishing his job. Now, at long last, he can finally break away for a short nap.
When he wakes up, Ichirou finds himself in the world of what appears to be the very video game he had been working on. This dream of his includes fantasy monsters, old world settlements, and beings from many different races; as well as access to, of all things, an in-game menu screen. It is here where Ichirou notices three crucial details.
One: His character’s name is Satou. Two: He is only a Level 1 adventurer. Three: This dream of his is, in fact, not a dream.
Ichirou, now Satou, is indeed in a land of magic and danger, and his first challenge is an oncoming hoard of high-level enemies. In a panic, Satou unleashes his most powerful spell and successfully eliminates everything. This causes Satou’s level to skyrocket, and in an instant, he becomes the most powerful fighter in existence.
