hey guys so today i am looking for anime with intelligent mc who isn't actually fighting with a sword or a gun (atleast it isn't main focus) but rather he is the one pulling the strings and is in charge of some group or gang or something like that.

I have seen already : death note, code geass, overlord, durarara, arslan senki, kingdom

thanks for recommendations

No Game No Life

MC becomes king of nation in a world where games happen instead of wars and generally manipulates people around him into letting him and his sister have the most favorable outcome

Pandora Hearts. The manga. The anime got axed (so if you want to watch that, you can but it misses out on a ton of key points and only reaches to chapter 15 in the manga out of 104). I can tell you right now because it is a underrated masterpiece. You just have to get past the first nine chapters.

(Hint: Plot twists are everywhere... And specially after chapter 74... Gosh... )

Everything (And I mean everything) is a lie. And how can you trust characters who can’t even trust themselves? Oz Vesalius is amazing (The mc). So is Jack. Alright, bye. Read this. It’s a masterpiece.

https://www.pinterest.com/l_harvilla/oz-vessalius-hawwwttttt/ Look there for some pictures of Pandora Hearts (the manga) so you know what you’re getting into. Nothing is really much of a spoiler... But may be a little (the pictures). Either way, just scroll through really fast to see what you’re getting into. Alright, it’s a masterpiece. I’ll go now. Good luck!

(God and it’s art is BEAUTIFUL... It’s a very dark manga... Perhaps at first it may seem lighthearted but... As I said before... EVERYTHING is a lie... You have no idea how hard I cried on chapter 104...)

P.S The mc doesn’t really ‘fight’ and you find out much later-





Spoiler ahead!:















- that he’s the one pulling the strings behind everything and he’s the mastermind of the tragedy of Sablier and he’s the one that killed all those ppl.... But you really have to just read it to find out! I still skipped a lot of key points and even what I told you isn’t all of the plot twists!
