Synopsis

The series follows Sakimori Kagami, who has been playing the online video game ''Arch Earth Online'' for a long time as the character Dunblf, an old male sorcerer who is one of the game's nine great sages. One day after adjusting his character, he is sucked into the game world, and finds himself inhabiting his character's body, who after his adjustments looks like a young woman; he tries to convince the people of the game world that he is Dunblf's pupil while figuring out on how to turn himself back to normal and escape the game world.

Characters

:
:A 27-year-old male Japanese VRMMO player who, after using a strange cash item called Vanity Case from the game, finds himself translocated into the setting of his role-plays, Ark Earth Online, and transformed not into his favorite character, the powerful magician Dunblf Gandagore (ダンブルフ・ガンダロール; an obvious mingling of the names Gandalf and Dumbledore), but a cute, petite girl with silver hair and blue eyes, though he retains Danblf's sorcerous abilities. In order to explain her abilities, she passes herself off as a pupil of Danblf, who is considered an honored hero. As her new identity, she adopts the name Mira (after the English translation of her own name "Kagami", which means "mirror"). She later reveals her real identity to her companions.
