Overview

Spoiler-free synopsis

Born into a prestigious family of master swordsmen, Elymas Edvaughn’s future shatters when he awakens the so-called “defective” Heavy Knight class. Disowned and cast out, he regains memories of another life—and realizes this world mirrors a VR game he once mastered. Armed with knowledge no one else possesses, he sets out to rewrite his fate and prove the strength of the “weakest” class.

      That animation is really something different. But I dont complain, I actually like it. Same as with Hand Shakers years ago. Its refreshing.

      Recaping every freaking episode & mid-break is disapointing. This isn't 26 episodes, more like 22ish episodes if this keeps up.
