The second season of the hit gaming anime "Shangri-La Frontier" takes a surprising turn with the new story arc "GGC" (Global Game Competition). A new visual and details about additional characters have been released, shifting the plot into the real world for the first time.

The key art shows the protagonists Sunraku, Arthur Pencilgon, and Oikatzo not in their virtual gaming personas but as real people:

- Hizutome Rakurou (Sunraku's true identity)

- Amane Towa (Arthur Pencilgon's real-world incarnation)

- Uomaru Kei (Oikatzo's human form)

The three unite outside the game to compete in the global e-sports tournament—a strategic move that redefines their dynamic.

New Characters: Battle for the World's Top Spot

- Natsume Megumi (Voiced by: Yumi Uchiyama): A professional fighting game player on the same team as Uomaru Kei. Known for her precise combos and cool analytical skills.

- Sylvia Goldberg (Voiced by: Minami Takahashi): The only female member of one of the strongest US fighting game teams. Her aggressive playstyle makes her a feared opponent.
