Nagi Travers, a 20-year-old recluse and former gaming champion, leads a bleak and isolated life, haunted by years of bullying. After losing his job and still mourning the death of his parents, Nagi finds solace only in video games and rarely leaves his home. His despair deepens when he encounters Jake and Mary, his old high school tormentors, who humiliate him and steal his money.
Overwhelmed by the return of his bullies and the burden of his past, Nagi considers suicide as his sole escape. On the verge of ending his life, he notices a young girl's ball rolling into the street, with a truck speeding towards her. In an act of selflessness, Nagi rushes out to save the girl, sacrificing himself in the process. Fatally injured, he reflects that it is better to die doing good than bad.
Nagi awakens in a surreal, white world, greeted by an angelic figure who presents him with two choices: remain in eternal peace, free from suffering, or be reborn in a different world for redemption and a second chance at life. Nagi must decide whether to rest forever or seek meaning and fulfillment in another world.
