Arata Aki’s A Destructive God Sits Next to Me manga launched in the pages of Media Factory’s Monthly Comic Gene in January 2013. The series currently spans ten compiled volumes, with the latest hitting stores on October 25, 2018.
Manga resource Baka-Updates describes the title as:
Seri Koyuki is a high school student who tries to avoid strange people because he knows he will just end up being the the straight man to their antics. Enter Kabuto Hanadori, Koyuki’s classmate who has chūnibyō (second-year middle school syndrome) and claims his eyepatch seals his god of destruction alter ego. Everything about Hanadori exudes the need for a straight man to keep him in check, and sure enough Koyuki is drawn in.
