SYNOPSIS: Cid doesn’t want to be a flashy hero or a dastardly villain. He wants to operate in the shadows and pull the strings of society through wit and cleverness. So, when he’s isekai’d to another world armed with magic powers (and an overactive imagination), he forms Shadow Garden, an underground organization that fights an evil cult he totally made up. But while Cid happily roleplays his favorite antihero tropes, little does he know Shadow Garden’s recruits treat his every lie as gospel, and worse yet? That “fake” cult is actually real, and they’re not happy his power fantasy just impeded their plan to gain ultimate power in THE EMINENCE IN SHADOW!

But he’s done with that now and would be looking forward to his first year in high school… Except the girl who lives above him is still a chuni and believes that Yuta’s her soul mate! And when Yuta’s previous “one true soul mate” comes back into his life with her own chuni version of reality, Yuta may just have to surrender to the inevitable in the complete mind-twisting, multi-series collection of LOVE, CHUNIBYO, AND OTHER DELUSIONS!

Sure, the fact that she was a girl and he’s not does make things a bit strange, and no one knows what to make of Yuya’s “spirited” new performing style.
