Technology has now allowed the full integration of virtual reality in massively multiplayer gaming. Gamers can now immerse themselves in a fantasy world, and fully experience a role-playing game. The first game to implement this system was called "Eden." Gamers around the world flocked to their first chance of being part of this system. Three years have passed since the discovery of the bug in "Eden." This bug prevented anyone from "logging out" of this game. Players were forever trapped in the fantasy world of Eden, and now had to fight to survive inside the game. Our main character, nicknamed "Teacher," continues to follow the road of the beginners course inside the game. Tirelessly training his skills, he fights alone against any enemy to become the strongest player in Eden. (Source: MangaHelpers)
After losing her older brother(a prodigious ice hockey player) in a traffic accident, Izumi Kazama resolves to turn her life around and transfers to the prestigious Seijo Daiichi High School in Tokyo. However, the ice hockey team is in shambles, having been suspended from competition for a year following a violent incident, and Izumi’s passion only serves to rub the upperclassmen (who have turned into delinquents) the wrong way. Izumi’s steely gaze as she endures a hazing-like entrance test moves the heart of the captain, Tokito. Next, all freshmen are required to take an entrance test to assess their ice hockey skills, and six students, including Izumi, pass. A practice match against the upperclassmen is scheduled for a month later, but the freshmen lack a wing player. Izumi is assigned the position, but they are still one player short, so he manages to recruit Sera, a classmate who was known as a “genius wing” in middle school. After a fierce battle against the upperclassmen, the prestigious Seijo Daiichi High School Ice Hockey Club is reborn.
