She enters the world of Gun Gale Online with her avatar, Ren, who is less than 150 centimeters (5 feet) tall and wears all pink. She meets a beautiful, brown-skinned female player who goes by Pitohui. They hit it off, but one day Pitohui pressures her to participate in “Squad Jam,” a team battle royale variation of the Bullet of Bullets tournament.
Mr. Sigsawa is also the author of the light novel series Kino’s Journey. The TV anime series for Kino’s Journey is scheduled to premiere this Fall 2017 anime season.
