Synopsis
​

The previously bedridden Keina Kagami finds herself in the world of her favorite VRMMORPG—titled Leadale—after the life support keeping her alive fails. Reincarnated in the body of her high-level character, "Cayna," she notices that the world of Leadale is different from what she remembers playing.

As she comes to learn, two hundred years have passed since she last interacted with the world. However, this does not sadden Cayna—as it means that a new journey awaits her, filled with exciting prospects and unfamiliar faces all waiting to be discovered.

Episode 1 was good, seems like a chill kind of anime. Cayna died while hospitalized due to a power outage and somehow was reborn into her game, although it seems like it's about 200 years from when she played, so a few things have changed. Namely there only being 3 kingdoms now. She still seems to have infamy as the "Silver Ring Witch" But, she has met a good group of town people. Teleporting back to her tower, it's revealed she apparently has three kids she created.

 

Episode 2 was good. Poor Cayna had a hangover from the celebration. A group of caravaners came through the town and one had been badly injured by a monster, but Cayna was able to heal them. She used a double spell which seems very unique. She decided to accompany them to the Royal Capital of Felskeilo to meet up with her daughter and two sons. The people were shocked to find that out. Before leaving, she made a promise to Lytt that she'd return, and told her that she was the "bad" witch as part of their promise.

When Cayna made it there, she couldn't meet her son Skargo who had become a high priest without making an appointment. She was able to meet her other son Kartatz who is a dwarf. He was flustered about it. She requested that he pass on that she was in the capital to his siblings.

Cayna then signed up at the guild to become an adventurer, and completed a quest for a potion while she was there. She then got roped into a quest to find the young boy who is likely the prince, and she walked on water through it. When the siblings met up later, Mai-Mai was able to tell that her mother likely made the potion as it was "outdated".

 

Episode 3 was good. Poor Cayna, the towns people are a bit carried away about her running on water. She got a summons to the Royal Academy, this was by Mai-Mai. It was firstly to meet up with her again, and Mai-Mai got a bit carried away. Cayna was quickly introduced to Mai-Mai's husband Harvery and he called her Missy before being acquianted. They seemed to get along, but Cayna was quick to leave after giving a quick potion explanation to the students.

Cayna took her next question, something to do with ghosts in the coliseum. She started out summoning a sword with a salamander inside and a Cerberus wolf (Ceberwoof) to prepare. Looks like the prince kid tagged a long to spy. Cayna was able to happen upon another tower, although it seems to have been long abandoned, as no other player has logged in, so she concludes that it isn't the Leadale from the game. She was able to take over the tower, but expended a lot of mana to do so.

Cayna was drained from both giving MP to the tower and also from realizing no other players are around. This had Skargo worried so he ran to her only for her to be creeped out and punch him through the ceiling and then putting a barrier around herself. Mai-Mai came to look and had Skargo carried off in a coffin.

 

Episode 4 was good, after some panic from the siblings, turns out Cayna was fine after she got hungry, good thing Kartatz ran into her. He passed it on to Mai-Mai and Skargo, and they were relieved after Cayna broke up their fight. She then apologised to them.

Cayna then got invited to join the caravaner group asking for her protection while they travelled due to bandits taking over one of the routes. She summoned a centaur and Ceberwoof to help out. After walking them over the water, they were attacked by the bandits, but they were taken out without issue. Cayna feels bad about it though due to them now being real.

 

Episode 5 was good. The group arrived in the Royal Capital of Helshper without further issue. This allowed Cayna to meet her grandchildren Caerick and Caerina. Caerick made her angry by trying to put her up in a nice room, before she ran into Caerina who is a knight. She apologised on his behalf. Seems like Cayna was more mad at Mai-Mai for not telling her sooner. She also has a great grandson there although didn't really interact with him.

In the end, Cayna apologised for her reaction to Caerick and then asked him for details about the tower in the area. He gave her a mission to deliver supplies to Caerina and her troop, then she could pass through the area and get to the tower. She arrived super quick which surprised Caerina. Some rock golems attack, and she told Cayna to stay put who was undecided if she'd help due to not wanting to be the centre of attention. When Caerina and her group failed to deal with the rock golems, Cayna decided to now step in.

 

Episode 6 was good. Cayna made short work of things with the stone golems. She then travelled to the tower and took out the bandits before confronting their leader who was actually a player and seemingly some kid, but Cayna still wanted to "deliver justice" despite him having no idea it wasn't a game apparently. The knights stepped in and took him under their custody for a trial. The master of the tower had left a book and ring for Cayna, and a fairy came out. She made it back to the city without issue.
