Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Just like how everyone adores heroes in their childhood, a certain boy adored those who hid in the shadows. One day, after living the mediocre life of a side character while undergoing frenzied training by night, he reincarnates in a different world and gains ultimate power. The young man who is only playing at being a secretive powerhouse, his misunderstanding subordinates, and a struggling, giant, shadowy organization…
This is the story of a boy who adored shadowy manipulations who might possibly reign over the dark side of another world.

In 64 chapters there are quite a few events that prove that his so called "created" backstory of the world events is actually real and that the girls he saved see him like a deity instead of just using him. There is so much information given to him yet he acts time and time again like he doesn't understand anything.
The comedy is hilarious and don't feel like that it was writen by a shut-in author (that would write repetitive and forced pseudo-comedy). The action is more into swords/skills than magic by itself.
I've started reading 2 days ago, it was pleasant to read. About the translation, Tenshi's Translations was one of the best translations that I've read so far, he also had the trouble to explain some of the references, sadly he had to drop due to legal stuff and copyrights. This is just a way to show some appreciation, and it saddens me to read some toxic comments on the New Translator-san website (Xia Zixin Translations), people should be more grateful to other's work be have more humility.
He tries to Be flashy and to manipulate the stage forcing dramatic events or as the Manga anime like to call it, he has "3rd grader syndrome". Since he want's to keep his powers a secret he often makes a fool out of himself intentional, which can be quite the spectacle. I really enjoy that part of MC. Characters are decently fleshed out and there is not much to complain as long as you keep in mind it's a silly novel.
It employing that Disgaea style of humor. Which I personally love.
the part where the princess confesses to him and he just gives her the middle finger
