The Engish dub for Season 2 of the VRMMO anime Shangri-La Frontier hits Crunchyroll this week. Ahead the premiere of Episode 1 on Sunday, October 27th, the streaming platform has revealed the English dub cast and crew.
Based on manga by Ryosuke Fuji, which in turn was an adaptation of the Japanese web novel series written by Katarina, Shangri-La Frontier follows a teenage gamer who mostly plays older, glitchy games, but decides to change things up and take on the acclaimed best-selling virtual reality game, armed with the experience and skills he's gained playing these trash games.
The official story synopsis reads:
"When was the last time I played a game that wasn't crap?" This is a world in the near future where games that use display screens are classified as retro. Anything that can't keep up with state-of-the-art VR technology is called a "crap game," and you see a large number of crap games coming out. Those who devote their lives to clearing these games are called "crap-game hunters," and Rakuro Hizutome is one of them. The game he's chosen to tackle next is Shangri-La Frontier, a "god-tier game" that has a total of thirty million players. Online friends... An expansive world... Encounters with rivals... These are changing Rakuro and all the other players' fates! The best game adventure tale by the strongest "crap game" player begins now
The first season of the anime television series adaptation, which was produced by C2C aired from October 2023 to March 2024. The second season debuted earlier this month with English subtitles available to stream on Crunchyroll. Fans will finally be able to watch the English dubbed episodes starting tomorrow.
