A lifelong incel works on his great exhortation against the modern world, posting great volumes on Internet forums about how sensitive, nice guys are doomed to isolation. Through a chance meeting, he meets a blue haired woman playing Pokémon go, and through her he is introduced to the enriching world of anime fandom.
And about 90% of the way through the story he realises that the blue haired woman was just an avatar he made inside his oculus rift all along
