IS SHE THE GAME’S LAST BOSS?! Though she doesn’t play many MMOs, Maple has either a natural talent or impossibly good luck, because by pouring every last stat point she has into Vitality, she’s created a character who can’t be hurt! Whether it’s physical attacks or magic or status effects, nothing poses a real threat. In no time at all, news spreads across the server about the adorable terror who can’t be defeated. While Maple may just be having fun, her broken build is sure to attract lot...

Kaede Honjou has never been much of a gamer. So when her best friend, Risa, ropes her into trying out the hit new VRMMO NewWorld Online, her biggest concern is…whether it will hurt! Her solution? To dump all her stat points into defense! She may not have anything in the way of magic, agility, or strength, but her extreme build transforms her from a total noob into a nigh-invulnerable walking fortress the game’s admins never accounted for!

The eighth event ended spectacularly, with Maple Tree and the game’s two best guilds teaming up in an epic boss battle. Now that things are quieting down, Maple and Sally head out to explore a hidden dungeon together—a flying castle where one false move spells death...for anyone else, at least. They take selfies, act like tourists, and enjoy the simple pleasures of just hanging out. However, that laid-back vibe may not last long with the appearance of new rivals: a girl wreathed in lightni...

A NEW STRATUM MEANS NEW MONSTERS ON THE MENU!The exciting large-scale PvP battle was full of challenges, forging bonds and deepening friendships between Maple Tree and the other top players. Now that it has come to a spectacular close, the game admins announce the opening of the tenth stratum. The map is the largest yet, and a super-boss is hiding somewhere in that vast area. Everyone is hyped to start exploring and pitch in to track down the boss, so Sally and Maple kick things off by…pre...

IF IT’S MAPLE TREE, EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED, UNLIKELY, AND UNTHINKABLE!Finally, the long-awaited tenth event begins! Maple Tree and the Order of the Holy Sword form an alliance, but they are up against Flame Empire, Thunder Storm, and Rapid Fire. With some of the strongest—and craziest—guilds teaming up, an epic battle is inevitable. However, with first-rate players on both sides, the combat comes to a standstill. To break the stalemate, Pain spearheads an all-out assault, and Sally hatches ...

THIS IS WHERE IT ALL BEGINS!Following their incredible performance in the treasure hunt event, Maple and Sally are interested in one thing and one thing only-buying a house! After all, every guild needs a home. Though their guild is still small, the girls and their friends are excited to have a place to meet, train, and grow-especially now that the newly minted guilds are all going to be facing off in the next big event! This is the birth of the legendary Maple Tree, the guild whose name s...

ONWARD, TO THE TENTH STRATUM!Maple Tree is getting closer to the ultimate boss, the Demon Lord. After learning of an item known as the Demon Lord’s Mana, which will lead the guild to the notorious villain, they head for the tenth stratum—an amalgamation of every zone that has come before. While the other members focus on separate areas, Sally and Maple visit the third-stratum section to upgrade their flying apparatuses. That’s not all they need to prepare for the fight, though. The girls t...

Maple Tree has just reached the seventh stratum, and there’s only one thing on everyone’s minds— get every member of the guild their very own pet monster! There isn’t a moment to lose because the next event is about to begin, and pets are supposed to be critical! Since Maple already has Syrup and Sally has Oboro, they’re helping everyone else find their partners while exploring the massive new map. Of course, Maple still somehow finds a way to stumble into even more insanity!

Maxed out defense meets an unyielding secret boss!The newly opened ninth stratum presents players with a choice between two kingdoms that will be the backdrop for a large-scale PvP battle. Right away, guilds form alliances and start scheming against their foes. Maple has her fair share of friends and adversaries, so she’ll have to make tough calls on who to ally with and which kingdom to choose. To get an edge on the competition, Maple is doing what she does best—wandering around until she...

The large-scale PvP event has reached unprecedented heights, with top players being eliminated even on the first day! Maple Tree and the Order’s next strat includes a plan to rain down insta-death poison over the enemy lines! With a lightning-fast strike by just three players—Maple, Sally, and Frederica—the enemy camp is thrown into chaos. Determined to take Maple out, they launch a counterattack, but...!?

Word is the next event will focus on large-scale guild PVP, and that’s bad news for Maple Tree. With only six members, they’re sure to be at a disadvantage— and the other top guilds are even putting together anti- Maple strategies! Fortunately, the gang picks up two new recruits: Mai and Yui, twin sisters bearing all-strength builds who’ll pack quite a punch after a little power leveling. But with Maple evolving into even more of a literal monster, will she be a bad influence on the newbie...

HUNT SEA MONSTERS? THEY’VE GOT OTHER PLANS!The ninth event is here, and the entire player base must work together to defeat enough aquatic monsters before time is up. Maple Tree is so powerful they sweep the battlefield with little trouble. Other than Iz, who’s after limited-edition crafting materials, the guild members aren’t really invested in an event that’s not challenging or competitive. Instead, they spend their time searching for rare monsters and bosses or scouting out other guilds...
