BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense.

At her friend’s urging, Kaede Honjou gives the wildly popular VRMMO New World Online a try. Creating her avatar Maple, she jumps in as a total beginner and pours every stat point into vitality so she won’t get hurt. The result is a character with absurdly high defense—so sturdy that she can barely move fast or hit hard.

Instead of backfiring, Maple’s unusual build leads to a string of powerful abilities, including Total Defense, Poison Immunity, and Devour, along with rare items that let her overwhelm most foes with ease. Within days, she places third in a server-wide event and quickly becomes known as an unkillable, strangely overpowered player. As Kaede continues exploring, she picks up new skills and meets allies who help her tackle fresh areas and challenges across the game.
