BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense. Does what great comedies rarely manage β it's actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Kaede Honjou is invited by her friend Risa Shiramine to play a virtual reality MMO game with her. While Kaede doesn't dislike games, what she really, truly dislikes is being in pain. She creates a character named Maple, and decides to put all her points in VIT to minimize pain. Akiha Matsui and Miyuri Shimabukuro lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 2 seasons (2020β2023), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.
