The New Gate Episode 1 aired on Sunday, April 14, 2024, at 1:30 a.m. JST. The episode, titled “The New Gate,” introduced Shin, the top player in the New Gate, as he saves everyone and is transported to the future.
The episode starts by introducing New Gate, the most popular MMORPG. The game gives all its players a chance to be whatever they want. However, the beloved game has turned into a death game. To make matters worse, they could not log out, a scene similar to that of sword art online.
Shin, the top-ranked player, continued to fight for a chance to save everyone and return home. He confronted the boss, and after some heavy blows, he was able to defeat it, giving everyone a chance to log out. To ensure everyone returned safely, he stayed behind until he was the last one. Finally, as he tried to log out, he was transported 500 years into the future.
Upon arriving in the future, he notices that his inventory is still safe, and his skills are even better than before he confronted the boss. He uses a talisman to find his way to his old hideout. However, he sees an elf girl being dragged out by some humans, asking for Schnee Raizar’s whereabouts. Shin rescues the girl, and she introduces herself as Tiera, a student of Shin’s former ally, Schnee Raizar.

Shin sees past Schnee’s glamour spell, which hid Tiera’s identity as a dark-haired elf. The reason for the dark hair was a curse that was laid on her when she was young. He analyzes the curse, telling her he can cure it. He is able to cure it with just a portion of her hair regaining its silver color. Tiera stepped out of the barrier for the first time, and the emotions overwhelmed her. She gives him a letter of introduction to the city as a thank you for saving her.
