This is fairly interesting. I enjoy the characters for the most part though there are a few things that super don't make a ton of sense that range between odd to frustrating.The most frustrating for me is the MC even after seemingly realizing he's been transported and would definitely not still be in his VR capsule still repeatedly commits to things being 100% a game and completely refuses to acknowledge things in it could affect him in reality.Second most frustrating is that he refuses to have any character growth so he can slowly drop some of the act or become closer to his companions. There are too many moments to count where it would make sense for him to open up more and more and he just blows past it. It is nice his companions start understanding how to work within those constraints but I just don't get it.On the side of odd, while they explain why the MC uses his class as his name, all the other companions also do that, so it's just awkward and makes you wonder if you'll ever have real characters.Anyway, the conceit of a self-aware roleplayer making an edgelord/chuunibyou character and then being coerced into maintaining his character once he cannot log out from the game and it might be real is fairly amusing. Lots of "it's what my character would do" moments that are usually more amusing than frustrating (though again, absolutely refuses to advance his character).The action tends to be fairly good and quite OP. Along the lines of what I tend to call superhero fantasy like you would see in RWBY or FF7 Advent Children or similar.The MC's refusal to believe there are any stakes does lessen the impact a little bit, but YMMV if that's just an eyeroll or a frustrating character choice.I'd really like if the MC's character grows and everyone's relationships develop.
