Synopsis:

Set within the virtual world of "The World R2," this CG movie follows Haseo, a former player-killer now struggling with the aftermath of a devastating encounter. After being defeated and severely weakened by the enigmatic Azure Kite – believed to be Tri-Edge – Haseo is left adrift, stripped of his abilities and haunted by the mysterious Data Drain. Driven by the desire to save his friend Shino, who remains in a coma after an attack by Tri-Edge, Haseo seeks answers and power within the game's complex ecosystem.

Embracing the abilities of the Skeith avatar, he embarks on a perilous journey to confront Tri-Edge and uncover the truth behind the Data Drain. The narrative explores themes of identity, loss, and the blurred lines between reality and the digital realm, as Haseo navigates a world where the consequences of virtual conflict have profound real-world implications. The film presents a character-driven story centered on a player’s desperate quest for redemption and understanding within a persistent online environment.
