Main character who is powerful but too lazy to use it

I had enough with those main characters(shounen) who is a weakling and can't do anything other than flirting with girls and accidentally grabbed her breast.
So I'm looking for a manga where the main character is strong, smart, powerful, or any of those three but lazy to use his talents or skills.
I would like it if he's not an a**hole.
Thanks
PS: Sorry about my english.

when I saw your topic I immediatly thought of en passant. The main character is pretty strong and has special powers but he is the most pessimistic person that you can imagine. So he does nothing but cooking or eating fish.
It's not your typical shounen and it's funny and no breast touching 🙂

First thing that comes to mind is Aiki
edit: OOPS but the main char is an a**hole, sorry didn't read your whole post 🙁
When I saw this, I immediately thought of Ryner from The Legend of the Legendary Heroes.
Unfortunately, the manga only has one chapter scanlated, but it does have an anime that recently finished if you're interested.

thats exactly what i was thinking till i read through the whole thing 😛
your description kind of reminds me of Gin from Gintama
he isn't lazy to use it..is he? hmm...I'm not sure if he's just lazy or it's his past that prevents him from using it as much. wait..I have to re-read it...

I hear you say "Why?" Always "Why?" You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"

Gintama is the epitome of this.

Like Kirixx said
I am not sure about the manga version but I know that the anime Chrome Shelled Regios is really good.

Psycho Staff, but it's pretty short at only 1 volume.

So very very true. I third Gintama in this!

I'm honestly shocked that no one has mentioned Nabari no Ou yet. It fits your request perfectly. Miharu qualifies for the extremely strong power - he has the ability to rewrite history or even the universe in any way he chooses, but he'd rather work in his grandmother's okonomiyaki shop.
