Here is the translation: Ling is a high school student who one day discovers that one of her classmates has committed suicide. The next day, an email from the deceased student arrives, including the text: "I am alive. I am in the afterlife with God." In anime, "Wired" refers to a virtual world where people live with their created characters. We have something like Second Life, which has a similar story. Ling, who had no interest in computers or, as they say in anime, "nawi," becomes curious about the true story and makes rapid progress in computer science, becoming the greatest hacker. Her small, childish computer has transformed into a supercomputer. Ling's research leads to new discoveries, and she realizes that everything is not as she thought it was. She finds out that her parents and the organization behind the scene are involved. The first thing that catches her attention in this anime is the predictions that have now come true. Like Wired, a virtual fantasy world that can be played online without a physical body. Internet theft and privacy breaches, advanced search engines, and... In this anime, there are two types of worlds: the real world and Wired. Ling, who is the bridge between these two worlds, has access to all individuals' information and can therefore disrupt the real world. The boundary between these two worlds is getting smaller day by day. The real world is gradually declining, and humans are becoming more addicted to the virtual world. But can the virtual world replace the real world?
