A man so thoroughly rejected by the world that he chooses to stay ugly in the next one. The show builds its entire heart on that choice, on someone deciding his worth isn't written on his face. Every conversation becomes about whether he can believe it, and whether the people around him actually do, no cheat stat can buy that answer.

Shigeru Yoshioka hits rock bottom after a false accusation costs him everything: his job, his reputation, his place in society. When he's transported to another world, he makes an unconventional choice. He gives up his looks in exchange for god-tier power and absurd stats, beginning his second life as an Absolute God. At first he travels with a party of companions, Seika, Seiji, and Leeds. But there's a catch to his overwhelming strength: touching girls causes him pain, a weakness that leads him to think about leaving the group. The result is a fantasy adventure about one very ugly but ridiculously strong man.
