Premise
In the year 2043, the virtual reality MMORPG Infinite Dendrogram is released, featuring the ability to perfectly simulate players' five senses. Nearly two years later, Reiji Mukudori enters the world of Infinite Dendrogram and assumes the name "Ray Starling", and upon his arrival, he is joined by his more experienced brother Shuu and his Embryo companion Nemesis. As Ray explores the world of Infinite Dendrogram, he learns to make a life for himself there and meets different kinds of friends and foes.

He is member of the Triangle of Wisdom and goes along with Franklin's plan to invade Gideon, thinking it will keep casualties to a minimum and bring the Altar-Dryfe war to a quicker end. As the invasion starts, however, Rook makes him realize Franklin never had any intention of sparing the citizen and he actually wants to destroy the city and kill as many as possible, causing Hugo to betray him and instead assist the city's defenders.

Marie also confirms that the player killer stalking the north, the one responsible for killing Ray, escaped and is still at large, giving Ray and Nemesis the opportunity to get even. Later, as Ray and Nemesis survey a destroyed forest, they come across Cheshire, who was running maintenance in the area and informs Ray that Maiden-type Embryos like Nemesis share the same functionality as administration AIs.

While Hugo and Cyco attack the fortress' defenders head-on, Ray and Nemesis infiltrate the fortress and discover that several of the kidnapped children have been murdered and turned into undead monsters, forcing Ray to kill them in an act of mercy.

Ray thinks Xunyu is about to harm the girl and attempts to fight Xunyu, who proves to be too fast for him. Fortunately, Shu steps in and defuses the situation and the unconscious girl is actually an ambassador from the Huang He Empire and Xunyu was her bodyguard. Ray and Shu reunite with the rest of the party as the match begins, with Figaro and Xunyu set to fight each other. Xunyu is able to land several hits on Figaro, even cutting out one of his lungs, but as Shu explains, Figaro possesses a special Embryo that makes him more powerful the longer he remains in a fight. Just when it looks like Xunyu has directed a killing blow towards Figaro's heart, Shu reveals that Figaro's Embryo is inside his body and is shaped like a heart, protecting him from the attack.

Marie, having known Elizabeth right before the tournament at Gideon started, becomes determined to save her from Franklin, who reveals that he surrounded the arena with a barrier and if players attempt to break through, the monsters under Franklin's control will destroy Gideon. While Marie goes on to save Elizabeth on her own, Ray discovers that under-leveled players like himself can walk through the barrier safely, as the barrier was only meant to hold high-ranking players that could partake in the tournament's matches. Ray, Rook and other under-leveled players fight players affiliated with Dryfe. Franklin tells Elizabeth that his plan is to eliminate any players affiliated with Altar, an action that will leave Altar vulnerable in an upcoming war against Dryfe. Marie briefly saves Elizabeth and inflicts lethal damage from Franklin, but Franklin transfers all the damage he sustained to his monsters and survives. As he recaptures Elizabeth, he deduces Marie managed to kill a high-rankling player using only an under-leveled Embryo and orders his henchman Veldorbell to eliminate Marie.

As Franklin steps outside the city, he is attacked by the Royal Guard, commanded by Liliana, but he summons a monster to decimate them. Ray and Rook reach Hugo, who agrees to let Ray confront Franklin, but not before Ray and Hugo attack each other only once. As Rook remains behind and fights Hugo, Ray reaches the city's outskirts and prepares to fight Franklin. | |||
11 | "The Right Arm of the Victor" Transliteration: "Shōrisha no Uwan" (Japanese: 勝利者の右腕) | March 26, 2020 (2020-03-26) | |
As the fight between Rook and Hugo continues, Hugo uses a skill that freezes parts of Rook's body over time. Thanks to his deduction skills, however, Rook is able to understand how Hugo's skill works and merges with Babylon to fight with Hugo's Magingear evenly. The power boost allows Rook to pierce through Hugo's cockpit and incapacitate him with his charm magic. Meanwhile, Franklin tells Ray that the potion he gave him earlier actually feed Franklin information about his status, level and weapons and he used that information to create a monster with the express purpose of killing Ray. He also reveals he is the one that sent Liliana's sister, Milliane, to the monster-infested orchard, which was yet another attempt to weaken Altar. Ray tells Liliana and Sir Lindos of the Royal Guard to save their injured companions while he attacks the monster directly. Using his newest weapons, Ray is able to expose the monster's entrails and unleashes a magical attack that completely disintegrates it. | |||

Liliana casts a healing spell that keeps Ray from dying, but she is unable to heal his left arm. Franklin reveals the monster Ray destroyed was actually the weakest monster he created for the invasion and he uses a detonator to activate a series of bombs he planted all over Altar, but the bombs fail to activate and Franklin realizes Marie has disarmed them. Rook has captured Hugo and makes him realize that Franklin never intended to end the Altar-Dryfe war with minimal casualties. Franklin summons his Embryo, Pandemonium, and sends an army of suicidal monsters to attack Gideon, but Ray awakens and takes on Franklin's monster in order to buy enough time for his allies to prepare a counterattack. With the help of Rook, Marie and a group of players, Ray is able to hold the line. Franklin realizes that, with so many players assisting Ray, Hugo must have betrayed him. Shu enters the battlefield and reveals himself to be the King of Destruction, the player with the highest kill count in all of Altar. He summons his Embryo, a battleship that decimates a significant portion of Franklin's army. Franklin realizes he has lost the battle, so he activates his final weapon. | |||

Ray manages to reach Pandemonium and attempts to confront Franklin, but Hugo steps in to protect Franklin, revealing that Franklin is Hugo's elder sister. Ray sacrifices both arms to defeat both Hugo and Franklin, while Shu destroys Pandemonium and Marie rescues Elizabeth. With the battle over, Liliana heals Ray but is unable to save his left arm, leaving Ray with his right arm to continue playing the game.

Ray also has a rematch with Marie, having already discovered she was the one who killed him in the second episode. Later, Ray disconnects himself from the game and continues his college studies in the real world. |
