Plots(1)
Akio - a prototypical millennial - lives at home with his parents, works a menial desk job, but lives his best life by night in the virtual realm of Final Fantasy XIV. His online clan feels more like a family than his distant father, busy mother, and boyfriend-obsessed sister. But when Akira, his stoic, workaholic patriarch father, suddenly announces his retirement and spends all his time at home, Akio begins to wonder if he can find out who his father really is. So, Akio devises a modern solution: get his dad to play Final Fantasy XIV online and secretly befriend his avatar so they can talk like they can’t seem to do IRL. Akio’s kawaii, cat-eared online persona goes on adventures to slay villains alongside his father’s strapping muscular avatar, debriefing and sharing real-life advice in the virtual world, until a devastating secret comes to light and changes the dynamic of their family forever.
