My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered plot

While the title gives a lot away about the plot, it doesn’t tell us everything. The story follows a seemingly normal high-school student called Yogiri Takatou and begins when his school bus is transported to another world by an malevolent sage. Why? Because she wants to find gifted students that are capable of fighting against demons.

Yogiri’s apathy to the strange situation unnerves his fellow students. But things are not as they seem. Yogiri is not a normal kid. He can kill anyone and anything he wants, just by thinking about it. (Essentially, this universe’s one thought man).
