10	The series follows the misadventures of [[WeirdnessMagnet Seri Koyuki]], a [[CatBoy catlike]] high schooler who [[IJustWantToBeNormal just wants to be left to study in peace]] but keeps getting annoyed by his classmate, [[{{Chuunibyou}} Kabuto Hanadori]], who claims to be the reincarnation of a knight sworn to defend the world from some unspecified evil, and insists Koyuki is the reincarnation of his former partner.

13	-----
14	!!''A Destructive God Sits Next to Me'' provides examples of:
15
16	* AmusingInjuries: All over the place, but some real ones too. For a supposedly 'nerdy' student, Koyuki is pretty keen to dish them out.
17	%%* BullyMagnet: Hanadori.
18	* CannotTalkToWomen: Hanadori turns into a ShrinkingViolet whenever girls start talking to him.
19	* {{Chuunibyou}}: The central premise of the series is that Koyuki tends to [[WeirdnessMagnet attract these]]. Most notably the eponymous "Destructive God," Hanadori, but the first year [[TheKlutz Hibiki Kamiya]] and Koyuki's childhood friend, [[ExtremeDoormat Kimikage Mogami]], act like this as well.
20	* DeathbringerTheAdorable: Hanadori names his [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter incredibly tiny puppy]] {{Cerberus}}.
21	* EyepatchOfPower: Hanadori at least thinks his is this. He's shown to have worn a bandage on his eye in preschool, long before he started acting the way he does now, implying it [[WildMassGuessing might]] [[EyeScream not]] be just a fashion accessory, but the chances of it actually keeping an [[SuperpoweredEvilSide evil demon]] [[SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan under wraps]] are [[{{Understatement}} slim]].
22	%%* EyesAlwaysShut: Tsukimiya
23	%%* FaceOfAThug: Gorio.
24	* FluffyTheTerrible: Hanadori's Destructive God persona is called [[StockForeignName Miguel]].
25	* GenkiBoy: Koyuki. Or, he is when Hanadori et al aren't bothering him.
26	* HiddenDepths: One running gag involves Koyuki discovering that Hanadori has quite a few of these.
27	--> '''Koyuki''': Since when were you so woke?!
28	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While Handori and the others can bring out the worst in Koyuki, the latter does care about them and, even when it finally gives him the peace he wants, he can worry when they aren't bothering him and wonder if something's wrong.
29	* JerkassHasAPoint: While Koyuki can be something of a JerkAss toward Hanadori, sometimes to the point of [[AmusingInjuries physically assaulting him]], it's hard to blame him seeing as Hanadori, [[InnocentlyInsensitive albeit while not being aware of it]], is inducing a great deal stress in him that has a severe effect on his personal life, with [[ManipulativeBastard Tsukimiya]] and the fact that he's a WeirdnessMagnet not helping his temper.
30	* ManChild: When he's dropping the "Hero of another world possessed by a demon" act, Hanadori really emphasizes the "middle-school" part of "middle-schooler syndrome", acting like an [[{{Keet}} excitable child]] who gets easily upset when feeling personally attacked, with his attachment to Koyuki being akin to how a child would act towards their best friend.
31	* ManipulativeBastard: Tsukimiya, hands down. While Hanadori can annoy Koyuki just fine of his own, Tsukimiya is more than happy to orchestrate and escalate events so that they'll annoy him even more [[ItAmusedMe for his own amusement]]. [[spoiler: In fact, it's ''his'' fault that Hanadori pesters Koyuki so much to begin with, having manipulated him into becoming a {{Chuunibyou}} since grade school and then, upon entering high school, telling him that Koyuki was his friend in a past life named Gestober, essentially kickstarting the entire plot for the sake of entertaining himself.]]
32	* NiceGirl: Sumiso is probably the only bright part of Koyuki's life, being the only character shown to not go out of their way to push his buttons and being quick to forgive for a misunderstanding after he explains himself.
33	* NoNameGiven: The boys' teacher and Koyuki's friend from a neighboring class aren't named.
34	%%* ProneToTears: Hanadori.
35	* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: [[DeathbringerTheAdorable Cerberus]], Hanadori's incredibly tiny puppy to whom he gives matching accessories.
36	* SmarterThanYouLook: Being a {{Chuunibyou}} might make you think that Hanadori has terrible academic skill, but he actually scores higher than Koyuki[[note]] then again, this is partially because he prevents Koyuki from actually studying properly[[/note]].
37	* StalkerWithACrush: [[PuttingTheBandBackTogether Shikimi Tokimune]] to Hanadori and [[ElegantGothicLolita Suzuran Mogami]] to Tsukimiya.
38	* StraightMan: Koyuki. It's noted by multiple characters that whenever something stupid or ridiculous happens, he can't help but call out how stupid or ridiculous it is. This trait annoys him to the point that he thinks people try to rile him up for the sake of him snarking at it, and he tries to avoid responding to anything as a result. [[WeirdnessMagnet Easier said]] [[HairTriggerTemper than done.]]
39	* SwissArmyTears: Inverted. When Hanadori is crying over Koyuki possibly dying one of his tears falls on Koyuki’s face causing his finger to twitch. Tsukimiya sees this and explains to hanadori that his tears may wake him up, as it happens in anime and stories, then encouraged him to let more drop on his face. This obviously does not work much to the chagrin of Koyuki’s spirit.
40	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tuna for Koyuki. Specifically in the form of [[BizarreTasteInFood tuna flavored drinks and ice cream]].
41	* UnfazedEveryman: What Koyuki [[SubvertedTrope tries]] to be. And sometimes even succeeds, [[HairTriggerTemper for a minute]].
42	* VomitDiscretionShot: When Hanadori gets drunk on amazake during their New Year shrine visit he ends his drunken rampage by vomiting on Koyuki offscreen.
