The protagonist is essentially an evil god. He's relatively easygoing. However, his followers won't allow it, so they devise a plan to create a new god. Watch how the protagonist manages to achieve this. ③ Mild supernatural. No romance, male-oriented. (I actually grasped what it means to be a "self" (a person who revolves around themselves). The protagonist is a lunatic, but in the eyes of other characters, he's incredibly powerful. The protagonist himself thinks so too. Once he starts to doubt himself, he won't be like that anymore.
