Yu-Gi-Oh GX: Ryuto's Path! (Paused)

Kanazaki Ryuto, a depressed young man burdened by the circumstances life has dealt him, suddenly and without apparent explanation, finds himself in a strange reality where everything around him seems to exist in two dimensions, like in a cartoon. To make matters even stranger, the boy now attends some kind of remote academy in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, an institution where it's the norm to teach its students how to play a peculiar card game, a card game that Ryuto quickly recognizes as the one called "Duel Monsters" from the animated series: Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. In this rather anticlimactic manner, Ryuto, mostly a taciturn and negative being, discovers a new purpose in life apart from the pessimistic trope, 'everything is a disaster waiting to happen,' a spark to give it his all, to find his way back home, because if there's one thing Ryuto is convinced of, it's that escaping from reality is never the answer to anything, even if the fantasy he's experiencing may seem so grand.
