BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense.
On AT-X
A lighthearted, whimsical VRMMO adventure built on the comedic premise of an unconventional character build that accidentally becomes overpowered, sustained by warmth between friends and the joy of discovery.
Kaede Honjou is invited by her friend Risa Shiramine to play a virtual reality MMO game with her. While Kaede doesn't dislike games, what she really, truly dislikes is being in pain. She creates a character named Maple, and decides to put all her points in VIT to minimize pain. As a result, she moves slowly, can't use magic, and even a rabbit can get the best of her. But as it turns out, she acquires a skill known as "Absolute Defense" as a result of her pumping points into VIT, as well as a "Counter Skill" that works against special moves. Now, with her ability to nullify all damage, she goes on adventures.
