... but ends up getting revealed later on anyway?

Preferably a male MC, and something with magic powers or school stuff would be nice. What triggered me here is Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei if that would help give you any idea. Oh, and Legend of Legendary Heroes kinda fits, too. Also a little bit of Hyouka.

Hopefully already completed, but ongoing is also fine.

I know this is cliche as heck, but hey, I like 'em. Huehue. Thanks! :)

Iris Zero seems to fit what your looking for except it is still publishing. The MC doesn't have an Iris and so lives by his motto of minimal exposure. He is however great at infering information from sources and is like a detective.

Ghost Hunt - genius badass male main character who manages to keep low-profile until the last couple of arcs. (Supernatural with psychic powers)

Nurarihyon no Mago - this one might be an option too. The main character is not exactly a genius, but he is quite powerful, and tries very hard to appear normal and fit in. (Includes magic powers and school)

Both are completed btw.

Thank you both! I'm checking out Iris Zero now and it really fits what I'm looking for.

Bump bump! Any other else?

To be honest I'm not quite fond of harem, unless the plot is really good.... sucker for romance, too....

But still checking them out. Thanks again!

Bump bump, last one? Lmao. Any other else ~ ;u;

Shindere Shoujo to Kodoku na Shinigami - this might fit what you are looking for, but unfortunately it is on indefinite hiatus due to author's illness, oddly enough just like Iris Zero (was).

Historie - could fit the mc too, but it is historical and is placed in the middle of wars in Greece and Macedonia.
