You know the type of story I'm talking about. Things like Last Dungeon or Atelier Meister, or a recently animated (I think) series whose name escapes me, where the hero was raised by a woman who wanted to be sure he didn't get too proud and accidentally convinced him that even breaking a mountain in half was weak and pathetic. Regardless, I'm looking for stories where, for whatever reason, the hero is beyond OP, to the point of absolute absurdity, at most only weaker than others from his hometown, and yet he believes himself to be the weakest, most inept, most completely useless person he's ever met. Obviously comedy, as the items mentioned demonstrate, with the hero constantly saving the day without realizing there was even a crisis to begin with.
I do know one or two others that kind of count, like Ossan Newbie Adventurer, only they break out of this motif all too quickly (I think Ossan has the guy realize he's OP after just a handful of chapters). I'd definitely prefer the joke last at least for a long time if he ever gets over it.
