Verde, a powerful and secret organization that controls the world has a new leader. The only thing that stands in its way is an unlikely character, Kujou Shin, the king of pessimists. He has no attachments to anything or anyone and feels no hesitation to dying. He is unwillingly dragged into a fight for the most powerful position in the world, the leader of Verde. What will his fate be?
Note: In chess, pawns can normally move one square forward, and can only capture pieces that are in front and diagonal to them. On its very first move, however, a pawn can move forward either one space or two spaces. If, by moving forward two spaces instead of one, the pawn avoids capture by the opponent's pawn, the opponent has the option of capturing that pawn en passant (in passing). The opponent would "take" the space the skipped by the other pawn and capture it just as if it had only moved forward one space. You can only take en passant on the first opportunity provided.
To me, this is like a Kateikyoushi Hitman Reborn!, except the "Tsuna" of this series knows of his standpoint, has control over his abilities early on, is more out going, and if his "No good Tsuna," personality is way more extreme. The King of Pessimists fits our Protagonist perfectly in this series, knowing what he's good and bad at (mostly bad) and taking the utmost extremes to fix problems he endures on others (if you call him troublesome, he'll "fix" his troublesome nature by jumping out of the third story window of your classroom to make sure he'll never be troublesome to you [or anyone else for that matter] again).
Though it's one of the new Manga series out there (I think?) the first couple of chapters picked me up.
