Sorry to interject; according to Chuunibyou User Manual by Saegami Hyouga (it's a real book, trust me), chuunibyouism is split into three styles of conduct:


 * DQN (Delinquent): Pretends to be a delinquent when in fact they aren't or can't become one. Makes up stories about gang fights and crimes and/or boasts and pretends to know about that subculture.


 * Subcultural: Latches on to minority or "alternative" cultural groups seen as "cool" to try to make themselves appear interesting or special.


 * Evil Eye: Interested in Magic and Powers and often believes they have special or supernatural abilities themselves (stereotypically an Evil Eye and/or Evil Hand). Generally creates a special magical persona namenote for themselves in accordance with those believed abilities. Also known as the Delusional Type, due to high incidence of becoming a Cloudcuckoolander. Likely the most iconic form of chuunibyou, and rare outside of Japanese Media.
