This series is the answer.

Starting to worry here.

More like "What would happen if Batman grew up as a chunnibyou fighting ludicrous imaginary villains spoiler[and later everything he imagined turned out to be real]?"

Lol the PV and poster make it seem like it is some edgy badass series when it is anything but that

It's so perfect.
I do worry that people will go into it expecting one thing then be like "oh this is just an isekai comedy" but I really do love the long game they're playing with the posters and trailers.

Big fan of this series so excited for it.

Then again, maybe were seeing it from Cid's POV, because he thinks he's this edgy badass

I couldn't get into this. The story only really has one joke and it stops being funny before the end of volume 1.

I might actually watch this, partially because it has style, but I remember the description sounding funny, but also think it could get old quickly, so an anime would be a cheaper alternative to try the series. Loved the PV too, it had style

disagree, the mozart ( or was it beethoven) joke killed the genre for me.

If reading some of the manga is anything to go by I thought it had some really good jokes and ideas, but actually hope the anime makes some tweaks to tighten up the plot and fill some apparent holes. If the original author happened to be involved in any way I wouldn't be surprised if there were things he’d improve himself in hindsight.
