{{Nihongo|'''''Netrun-mon'''''|ねとらん者||"Netrunner"}} is a single-episode [[Japan]]ese [[original video animation]] which was created to celebrate the fifth anniversary of ''[[NetRunner (magazine)|NetRunner]]'' magazine. ''NetRunner'' is a controversial publication since some articles promote [[hacker (computer security)|hacking]]. Characters that are used to promote the magazine and are sold as merchandise have been taken directly from Hiroyuki's [[2channel]] community. Hiroyuki himself is a character of ''Netrun-mon'', one of the many references to Internet fandom in Japan that the anime is based upon.
