After the death of their parents, Ataru Kashiwagi and his younger sister, Yuri, depend on each other. Ataru works hard at high school and his job, and spends his leisure time on a social media site: Real Account. Eventually, he hits 1,500 followers, but he sometimes wonders how much they really care about him. One night, the screen ominously begins to glitch, only displaying: The Game Will Now Begin. In the blink of an eye, Ataru finds himself transported into Real Account's loading screen - except now it's a 3-D lobby! Before them stands Marble, the smiley-faced announcer. With a sinister cheerfulness, Marble says, If you die in here, you die out there...and so do all your followers!
Series Overview: Ataru is one of millions of members on the social networking site Real Account. But one day, he and thousands of others wake up inside a video game world. Here, if you lose the game, you die for real - taking all your followers with you! And if you run out of followers...it's also game over! When likes and retweets mean life or death, how will Ataru survive? And how will he convince his online friends to share his posts - when it might mean giving up their lives?
