About the Series

Studio Echo describes I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World and Became Unrivaled in The Real World, Too:

Bullied mercilessly for his appearance and lack of talent, high school student Yuya Tenjou lives a miserable life—until he discovers a mysterious door in his grandfather's old home. Beyond it lies another world where Yuya gains incredible stats and overpowered abilities, transforming him into an unbeatable warrior. But the power doesn't stop there—when he returns to Earth, Yuya brings his newfound strength with him, becoming devastatingly handsome and impossibly capable in both worlds. From battling monsters in a fantasy realm to dominating school life and catching the attention of beautiful classmates, Yuya's dual-world adventures are just beginning. This is the story of an underdog who went from zero to hero—twice over.
