The Eminence in Shadow

陰の実力者になりたくて！

Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!

The Eminence in Shadow is a comedy about a boy who wants to be the secret mastermind behind everything. In his old life in Japan he trained hard in secret while acting like a dull and ordinary student. A traffic accident ends that life. He is reborn as Cid Kagenou into a minor noble family in a world full of magic. In public Cid plays the forgettable background character. In private he founds a secret order called Shadow Garden with girls he has rescued and trained. He makes up a sinister cult for them to fight as part of his act. The joke is that the cult is real. His followers believe every word. It suits isekai fans who enjoy parody and a hero who has no idea his act has come true.
