    Summary

    Izuku learned at a very young age that love is conditional. Love is a reward for following the rules, love is reserved for those who are worthy of it, for those who are loveable.
    Izuku was not loveable, well at least not according to anyone he'd ever met.
    All he ever wanted to do was help people, to be someone worthy of loving but at 12 years old he's left with nothing and no one. Living on the streets he has to make his own way in life and maybe help some of the people in this community he's found himself in.
    Follow his journey as Izuku skirts the line of the law saving people and maybe even finding someone who thinks he's worth loving.

    Summary

    Ethan Reed, once an ordinary young man from Earth, is mysteriously transported to the vibrant world of Pokémon. Stranded and bewildered, he spends over a year in an untamed forest, surviving and adapting to his new reality while waiting for rescue. During this time, he creates a small plot of land for himself and the surrounding Pokémon, cultivating a farm of berry trees, a secluded meadow, and a rough shelter.

    One fateful day, Ethan is rescued by an experienced Pokémon Ranger, who helps him reach Eterna City. There, Ethan is welcomed by the community of Pokémon trainers, nurses, and League officials after his harrowing experience. Despite their warm reception, Ethan feels out of place and uncertain about his future in this unfamiliar world.

    Summary

    Take Midoriya Izuku. Change things so that he idolises villains for how they inspire heroes. Give him an impetus to develop super science. Watch the exploits of a SUPER VILLAIN.

    Or:

    Izuku's personality remains the same but instead of heroes he is a villain otaku who believes in the narrative convention that a hero is defined by their villains.

    So he decides to provide the heroes with a better class of villain to help the heroes improve.

    Not very serious. Inspired by works like THE TECHNO QUEEN and Megamind.

    Summary

    After the encounter with All Might sucks the hope out of Izuku, he finds himself in another situation with a villain. This time, though, it’s at night and it isn’t All Might who saves the day, but a slippery guy who welcomes Izuku’s help. He fills the spot of admiration that All Might had had in Izuku’s heart. Izuku doesn’t let the fact that the guy doesn’t have a hero’s license bother him.

    OR

    Izuku befriends a vigilante and gets ingrained into a world that’s all ‘gray area’. At some point he even finds himself interacting with people who have stepped over the line into the ‘villains’ side. Izuku might spend a little time over the line too. Or a significant amount of time. Depends on who you ask.
    During the same time, Bakugou wonders who his teacher, Eraserhead, must be chasing to give him so much grief.
