Shotaro: journey of a hero that kept moving forward
In the mystical land of Drakastradorn, where magic thrives, countless races coexist—some friendly, some neutral, and others hostile. Among them is a powerful faction known as The Above Order, ruled by the tyrannical Queen Marafyre the Absolute and governed by the elite Order of the Crimsons. Standing in defiance against their oppressive rule is the Rebel Alliance of Drakastradorn.
Amid this turmoil, a man named Shotaro—Mugiwara Shotaro—awakens in a dense jungle, completely naked and with no memory of how he arrived. He knows he is from Earth, yet his past is a blur. Was he transported by a truck? A train? A summoning ritual? He has no answers.
As he struggles to understand his fate, Shotaro encounters and befriends an elf ranger. However, his troubles only deepen when he becomes cursed by a sinister black katana that relentlessly follows him. The blade burdens him with a fate worse than death, bringing relentless misfortune and eerie whispers that echo in his mind. These voices speak of salvation, urging him to keep moving forward… but to what end?
Shotaro: Journey of a Hero is a dark, action-packed, R-rated tale of resilience and survival. While embracing the familiar essence of the isekai genre, it takes a grittier, more intense approach, redefining what it means to be a hero in an unforgiving world.
