Synopsis:

The narrative follows Takuma Sakamoto, a reclusive gamer whose life revolves around the fantasy MMORPG, Cross Reverie. His unparalleled power within the game as the Demon King Diablo is shattered when a sudden summoning transports him to a world mirroring the virtual realm. He emerges with the imposing appearance of his in-game avatar and is immediately confronted by Rem Galeu and Shera L. Greenwood, the individuals responsible for his arrival. An attempt to control him through a ritual ironically binds them to his service.

The story explores Takuma's struggle to navigate this unfamiliar reality while grappling with the expectations associated with the Diablo persona. He embarks on a journey alongside Rem and Shera to reverse the binding, forcing him to confront not only the challenges of a new world but also his own deeply ingrained social anxieties. The series examines themes of identity, responsibility, and the unexpected consequences of immersion in virtual worlds.
