In another world, there are no pro-heroes to save the day because society is ruled by villains.

The emergence of Quirks nearly two centuries ago plunged Earth into another world war. Countless nations entered a superhuman arms race & all but the most powerful governments on Earth collapsed beneath the rise of powerful Quirk users, ushering in a brutal era later known as the Dark Age of Quirks.

Japan is one of many nations that barely survived after WWIII & is now stuck in a new, perpetual cold war between a more totalitarian Japanese government centered around Tokyo & the rising villains fighting to overthrow it.

The villains vastly outnumber the government, but they remain divided into rival gangs, syndicates, mercenary groups, cults, & factions constantly fighting each other for territory, resources, and manpower like the Sengoku warlords of old.

Some infamous villains are mirror counterparts to the pro-heros in canon, such as:

• Anguished = Ms. Joke
• Infamous = Majestic
• Jetstorm = Air Jet
• Laser-Sight = X-Less
• Mr. Bruce = Gang Orca
• Skin n. Bones = Fatgum
• Beachmaster = Selkie
• Catfished = Sirius
• The Wyld Wulf Pack = The Wild Wild Pussycats
• The Stalkers = The Lurkers
• Zero = Lemillion
• Lunatic = Suneater
• Armory = Yoroi Musha
• Oomukage = Centipeder
• Acid Angel = Bubble Girl

And at the top of Japan’s underworld stand the Ten Titanic Tyrants — the mirrorverse equivalent of the Top Ten Pro Heroes.

These kingpins rule massive territories like feudal warlords & consist of:

1. One Might — Symbol of Strife / Demon King of Japan = All Might
2. Inertia = Endeavor
3. Condor = Hawks
4. Lifethread = Best Jeanist
5. ????? = Edgeshot
6. Caerbannog = Mirko
7. ????? = Crust
8. Trevenant = Kamui Woods
9. Whirlpool = Wash
10. Dragon Lady = Ryukyu

Each tyrant commands their private armies of villains, but their alliances with each other are fragile and temporary. The government survives largely because the Tyrants spend as much time fighting each other as they do them, if not more.

Since common street thugs are expendable, the Tyrants rely on recruiting skilled, competent minions from underworld training facilities to train competent villains. These “crime colleges” are the mirrorverse equivalent of hero schools.

The most infamous of them all is Axis Underworld, the dark counterpart to U.A. High School.

There, specialists teach aspiring criminals subjects such as manipulation, blackmail, hostage protocol, criminal finance, intimidation, and underworld networking...for a price, of course.

Faculty includes:

• Pencil Neck = Eraserhead
• Chloroform = Midnight
• Shock Jock = Present Mic
• Bludwulf = Vlad King
• Parasyte Eve = Recovery Girl
• Trigger-Happy = Snipe
• Tankor = Power Loader
• Nebulous = Nezu
• Gourmet = Lunchrush
• Soyuz = Thirteen
• Brutalist Maximus = Cementoss
• Binary = Ectoplasm

Axis Underworld and other major crime colleges act as neutral powers balancing both the government and the Tyrants, profiting from the endless conflict while Japan suffers beneath it. And for decades, countless villains dreamed of becoming Tyrants themselves, but most either died or became subordinates to stronger rulers.

Very few succeeded in replacing one of the tyrants, but no one has ever dethrone One Might himself in over 50 years since he defeated the hero, One For All.

Now, however, intelligence agencies have discovered something unprecedented: A new generation of 39 rising villains secretly connected through a single mysterious mastermind.

Among them are:

• Paint it Black = Can't Stop Twinkling
• Predator = Alien Queen
• Toxica = Froppy
• Motormania = Ingenium
• Singularity = Uravity
• Daishipp-oh = Tail-Man
• Conduit = Chargebolt
• Rose Riot = Red Riot
• Beastial = Anima
• Dextrosity = Sugar Man
• Krakentoa = Tentacole
• Livestream = Earphone Jack
• Dispenser = Cellophane
• Amaterasu = Tsukuyomi
• Celsius = Shoto
• Spectra = Invisible Girl
• Nice Guy = King Explosion Murder Dynamight
• Wine Pressed = Grape Juice
• Destroya = Creati
• Deadbolt = Welder
• Drillago = Spiral
• Deathscythe = Jack Mantis
• White Shadow = Vantablack
• Bloody Knuckles = Battle Fist
• Kaijumo = Rule
• Mantagal = Shemage
• Jezebel = Maria/Vine
• Belial = Gevaudan
• Impactor = Mine
• ????? = Rocketti
• ????? = Tsuburaba
• Adamantitan = Real Steel
• Lizard Queen = Lizardy
• Page Master = Comic Man
• Mudslide = Mudman
• Sticky Fingers = Plamo
• Payoff = Phantom Thief
• Sadako = Emily
• Ryumajin = Long Weizi

Normally, these villains would never cooperate, yet every one of them speaks of the same individual. A mastermind whose ambition is not merely to become another Tyrant — but to overthrow One Might himself and unite Japan under a single rule for the first time since the Dawn of Quirks.

The only thing known about him is his name:

Muda = Deku

NOTE: This is a repost of my my old reddit post over a year ago & since the last MHA episode came out, I wished the series delved into more types of plot points that you often see in the American Comic Books that it is inspired by. In this case, the evil, mirror-verse counterparts to the heroes.

Are the words that Midoriya Izuku’s twin sister, Izumi, lives by.

Unlike her brother, Izumi has a weak & unfocus Light Manipulation Quirk that lets her create flashes, distortions, & hard-light projections similar to holograms It wasn’t especially powerful, but she made up for it with sheer intelligence and obsessive tinkering with tech that help focuses it better.

Izumi dedicated herself to getting into U.A. Highschool someday, specifically the support course rather than the hero course. Not because she dreamed of becoming a hero, but because U.A.’s resources, labs, connections, and databases would give her the best chance of finding her twin brother who went missing since she was little.

Everyone said Izuku ran away cause he is quirkless, always ignoring the fact her brother has been taken in by the same weird doctor who gave him the test results in the first place. The same doctor who conviently disappeared & took Izuku with him while both the police & pro-heroes were doing jack shit in trying to find her twin, citing it's a waste time & resources spend on finding a quirkless child.

"Well fuck all of them, I'll find him myself if I have to!"

Not that it's matters anymore. When the tv news explodes with reports of an unknown teenager using an unbelievably destructive gravity/energy-based Quirk to brutalize pro heroes and police officers alike. Multiple heroes fail to stop him before the situation escalates badly enough that All Might himself is forced to intervene.

The said villain turns out to be her brother, who escaped from whatever lab he had destroy & lashing out like a corner animal. The same person who was talked down into calming himself by All Might, her stepfather as of last year, ironically enough.

And best all, All Might got together with the principal of U.A. to start a rehabilitation program for Izuku to help him learn to better manage his quirk. Thank god he's not being sent to Tartarus like some her stupid classmates & teachers from Aldera wanted. And from what she had heard from stepfather during dinner, there are at least a couple of people her age with so-called "villanous " quirks that had applied for this Grissom Ascension Project. I think one of them has a cool quirk that involves blood...

It's too bad Izuku can't exactly leave U.A. at the moment, but she has plenty of time to catch up with her brother once the school year starts.

Basically, this is a continuation of my previous post. https://www.reddit.com/r/BokunoheroFanfiction/comments/1swvgao/touch_me_i_will_smear_the_ground_with_you_bitch/

While Izuku in my previous post based on the psychotic -Biotic, Jack, from the Mass Effect Trilogy & is basically a combination of the Vanguard & Adept player class in terms of biotic abilities, his sister is more inspired by Tali'Zorah, & can utilize all tech-base abilities from the Engineer, Inflinitrator & Sentinel player classes. So think of all the trouble Izumi will cause alongside Hatsume.

Also, yes, this entire concept is partially fueled by my spite toward “Izuku Yagi” fics. Instead of a neglectful family abandoning him, Izuku actually had people who loved him & and worked tiredness to find & rescue him when he went missing for years.

When Midoriya Izuku was little, he was declared quirkless & quietly taken by Kyudai Garaki under the excuse of “medical treatment” & “special care for quirkless children.” In reality, Garaki used him as a long-term human experiment.

Years of surgeries, forced awakenings, pain conditioning, & isolation eventually trigger Izuku’s hidden quirk into evolving far beyond his mother’s attraction ability. Garaki names him Subject Zero because he became the first successful prototype.

Izuku’s quirk is dubbed Mass Effect — the ability to generate energy fields that can increase or decrease the mass of anything inside them. He can make objects impossibly heavy, weightless, accelerate debris like artillery, pin people to the ground, crush structures, or launch himself through altered gravity zones.

After years in captivity, a teenage Izuku finally escapes.

Unfortunately, he has no understanding of society, severe trauma responses, no trust in authority, & only knows survival through violence. So when pro-heroes & police attempt to detain him for destructive public quirk use, Izuku interprets every approach as another capture attempt & reacts brutally.

Cue multiple failed hero encounters until he is finally cornered by All Might.

Instead of defeating him physically, All Might actually talks him down. Rather than sending him to Tartarus, All Might & Nezu create an experimental rehabilitation initiative at U.A. High School: help dangerous but salvageable individuals integrate into hero society.

Izuku admits he liked the idea of heroes as a kid… but after everything he’s seen, he despises most heroes in practice & has zero desire to become one. Still, All Might suggests he doesn’t need to be a hero yet—just come to U.A. to learn control his quirk.

Izuku scoffs, saying he will never step foot at U.A-

Fast forward to Entrance Exam day: Izuku shows up covered in tattoos (used to hide years of surgical scars), looking tough, rough, exhausted, intimidating, & very very angry.

It is no suprise Tenya Iida immediately judges him as a delinquent/villain when he first sees him at the exams, despite the fact he didn't actually do anything wrong & was minding his own business

When Iida grabs & confronts him again before the start of the practical portion of the exam, Izuku snaps:

“Touch me and I will smear the floor with you, bitch.”

Causing Iida to back off. But before hecould lecture Izuku again, the exam starts and Izuku proceeds to casually annihilate robots by crushing them into scrap, collapsing their own weight, turning debris into railgun rounds, and finally bringing down the Zero Pointer by charging straight into it.

Basically, what if Izuku has the biotic abilities, anger issues & tattoos of Jack, aka Subject Zero from the Mass Effect Series & applied for the general course at first, but decided to take the practical portion anyway.

And somehow, despite not being enrolled in the hero course, most of Class 1-A & even 1-B considers an angrier, temperamental Izuku who is far more crude & rude than Bakugo is far more easier to get along with as long with as long as you don't act antagonistic towards him...a memo that Bakugo, Iida, Monoma & especially Aizawa don't seem to understand.

Izuku: Fuck off & bite me!
