1 Reincarnation... I guess

In a dim expanse devoid of any surroundings, an 18-year-old young man found himself. He was greatly taken aback by the sudden change of scenery, recalling that he was in his car driving when a truck collided with him. After a few moments, the realization dawned on him that he had passed away. "I see, so this isn't heaven or hell. I wonder why I feel strangely okay. Shouldn't I be panicking? I mean, I just died. Or am I in a coma?"

"You have indeed died, young one," a figure emerged seemingly out of nowhere. It was an old man with a white beard and hair, exuding a gentle and reassuring aura. As an avid anime fan during his previous life, the young man immediately surmised, "You're a god, aren't you? You're here to judge me and decide whether I go to heaven or hell, right? But that doesn't seem fair. I've only lived for eighteen years; it's too short a time for such judgment. I never even had the chance to be wealthy and make charitable donations. And why should it be considered a sin to enjoy hentai? You created everything, including the world of doujinshi, so it shouldn't be deemed sinful!"

The old man smiled more and more as he listened to the young man's words, finding it intriguing that a human would debate such matters fearlessly. "HAHAHAHAHA," the old man burst into laughter, amused by the young man's defense of his love for something he didn't find immoral.

"Hold on, don't laugh! Hentai is art, damn it!"

"Indeed, I agree with you. It's just amusing to see you justify it so passionately. In fact, for making me laugh over something so absurd and trivial, I will grant you a privilege bestowed upon only a rare few: the chance to reincarnate in another world. Would you like to take it?"

"So, you really are God?"

"Yes, the Big G himself."

"Great, really great! About that offer, yes, I'll take it, but only if you promise not to send me to a world like Attack on Titan or Re:Zero, something traumatizing, you know?"

"Why would you think you'd reincarnate into an anime world?"

"Wait, this isn't a fan fiction?"

"Of course it is! Why would I create a completely original world with actual people when I can just use someone else's work? You'll be reincarnated into one of your world's most famous anime series, My Hero Academia. Do you know it?"

"Oh, shoot! I haven't finished that anime yet. I stopped at season 4 when that hot Bunny girl showed up."

"Well, experiencing it like this might be more fun. To compensate, I'll grant you the powers from your favorite series!" The young man's face lit up as he asked, "Will I get STANDS?"

"No, already taken. How about Fate servants? You'll have the power to transform into a random servant each time, kind of like that Loli Bait Show that I swear I never watched."

"It's not stands, but I'll take it! I love Fate, and its million variants."

"Excellent! You will be reincarnated as Izuku Midoriya, the main character of the show. Enjoy your new life, kid, and remember to have fun."

"Thanks, God!"

...

In a hospital room, a woman screamed in labor pain. This woman was soon to become the young man's mother, giving birth to him. He thought to himself, "God, this is gross." He was excited about being in another world, but it also reminded him of the My Hero Academia world, a peculiar place where powers stemmed from quirks—innate abilities one was born with. This meant that having a powerful quirk was akin to being born into wealth. Training could only do so much if one lacked a quirk, making it challenging to become a hero. It wasn't impossible, but it was exceedingly rare and underscored the world's inherent unfairness.

As the young man opened his eyes in this new world, he saw his mother, who had been screaming moments before, now saying joyfully, "Give me my baby! I want to hold my baby!" The nurse handed the newborn boy to the mother, asking, "What will you name him?" Filled with happiness, the woman replied, "Oh, thank God, my dear baby. I'll name you Izuku. May you bring joy into the world." The young man looked at his mother and thought, "Oh, I definitely will."

And so begins the young man's journey to becoming the mightiest hero.
