Episode Title:
The Super Virtual Planet.
Episode Description:
The Edens Zero crew learn that Hermit is in a catatonic state caused by psychological trauma. Witch determines that Hermit's mind is secluded within Digitalis, a virtual planet and server for the massively multiplayer online role-playing game Rogue Fantasia. Shiki and his team enter the game by uploading their consciousness into digital avatars, warned by Witch that any injuries and death they sustain in the virtual world will affect their physical bodies. After interrogating the game's sentient non-player characters (NPCs), the team travels to the city near Hermit's location and encounters Jamilov, a player and affiliate of Drakken Joe who is notorious for killing NPCs and other players without being banned from the game. Meanwhile, Hermit mulls over her feelings towards humans, whom she is convinced lack "hearts".
