Frustrated, Hiraku (Sunraku) will log out of Shangri-La Frontier to take a break. However, instead of relaxing, he decides to blow off steam by revisiting the robot fighting game Nephilim Hollow, a title he hasn’t played in a while.

There, he is set to encounter a new challenge that could provide a refreshing change of pace from the ongoing struggles in SLF. In a completely different game environment, Hiraku may reach a breakthrough, unlocking insights that could help him overcome the limitations imposed by Lycaon’s curse in Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 6.

Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 5 recap

Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 5 is titled ‘The Impetus of Hunger; the Persistence of Thirst.’ Sunraku continues his battle against the Crystal Scorpions by leveraging their own momentum to send them over a cliff. However, he is surprised to find that he hasn’t gained any experience points.

Upon investigation, he discovers a hidden Golden Crystal Scorpion boss lurking below. This new enemy is far more formidable than its regular counterparts, rivaling Unique Monsters like Lycaon and Wezaemon. Sunraku engages the Golden Crystal Scorpion, quickly realizing its strengths and weaknesses.

Though it’s less physically durable, it is significantly more powerful. He narrowly avoids defeat by dodging its venomous attacks and escaping to Inventoria in Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 5. Determined to win, Sunraku implements strategies reminiscent of his battle with Wezaemon, even managing to sever the creature’s tail as a trophy.
