I noticed how much hate Mineta got, and in a way I understand why. Him perving on the girls is in no way okay. But, he's also just a teen who the staff is not disciplining - right, correctly or enough if at all. Like, seriously, you'd think he would get in trouble for his actions, or get detentions, counseling, and/or expelling him if he doesn't shape up - and that's not counting Bakugou's actions too. Seriously, Bakugou tried to kill/seriously hurt Izuku during their practice. Maybe he did get in trouble and I didn't see it though. What I am getting at though, is that it is not only Mineta's fault, the staff should have stepped up and taken action about it all.

In any case, with all the hate going around for Mineta, I wondered how would someone who has never watched the anime or read the manga feel about being reborn in his place? Most likely they would not feel all that great. I mean, not only have they died, but they are reincarnated as a person they have only heard bad things about. Everything from how bad he is, to how he should just die or never exist. That screams for disaster, mentally at least. And this is not counting to how the person is with being in another world and everything else. So, I decided to make a story out of it!

Mineta (Last Name) Mitsu (First Name) takes the place of Minoru, only there are a few difference between them - physically that is. Gender for example. But, they do have the same quirk - but I might play around with it, so if I get anything wrong with it, sorry not sorry. Personality wise and mentally, they are very different. This shows in the story, and shows the butterfly effect of it.

"Mitsu" means "Shine, Reflect, Light".

{The first five chapters of this story are mostly the same from "Reincarnated As A Cockroach" from the book "Luck Of The Draw". LotD has many different stories in it, all centering around reincarnation/rebirth/being reborn. I have decided that once a story, unless it is a special of some kind and even then I might decide differently, reaches five parts, then it will get a book of it's own. This is the case for this story - it is the first one to get five parts. From now on, this story will only be updated in this book, not "Luck Of The Draw". I'll be sure to put a note of that in the other book. In any case, I hope everyone enjoys the story!}

Now, this OC has never seen, read or watched BNHA, although she has seen some of the characters from her friends, but she has heard about it from her friends. I want you all to think about this, as the person she is reincarnated as gets a lot of hate for many reasons. So, say you heard all this hate for so long, never having watched the anime, die, and then find out that you are reincarnated as one of the most hated characters ever - or, at least, that's what you think because of your friends saying how said character should just die or worse. If this happened to anyone, that would mess them up. Mess them up BIG TIME.

And this isn't even counting her emotional and mental state before she found this out - which is pretty fragile already.

I am going to be making up the Mineta family and such, because I have no idea about them and they haven't shown up yet in the anime - or, at least, I haven't caught up to it if it has. She is also going to look slightly different from Minoru for reasons, but not so different that she might as well be a different character by looks alone. I'm also making up the year, as there is a lot of debate on when BNHA is set in and the creator said nothing about the year/century the manga/anime is set in.

Also, it should be safe to say that some characters are going to be OOC and a lot going nothing like canon, as with Mitsu being in Minoru's place there is going to be a butterfly effect. There is also the case of others reacting differently to her, as I can safety say she is not a pervert.

Now, with all that out of the way, let's start the story!

-Chapter Start-

Big, round black eyes stared back at her. Curiosity slowly fading into horror as realization at who the owner is looking at.

["He's such a worthless character."]

["A good for nothing pervert!"]

["I wish he'd just die already."]

["I'm making a fanfic, one where he doesn't exist, want to read it?"]

["Rat faced bastard is a good name for him!"]

Countless things her friends had told her about Mineta Minoru, a character from an anime and manga that she never watched or read, did not paint a good picture about him. They said he was worthless, a pervert, good for nothing, not worth the space he takes up, and so much more.

So, what does that mean when someone is reincarnated as that very character, only with a different gender?

Reincarnation is usually said to be on a karma system, from what she can recall. If you die with enough good karma, the better the chance of what you are reborn as. If you have bad karma, then you are more than likely to be reborn into a rat or something. Usually, you are not supposed to remember your past life at all, but for some reason, at seven months old, she did. And, finally, at one years old, she was able to see just who she was. It also helped seeing people on the news channel do incredible things she once thought was impossible. Proof to show her just where she was reborn. The world itself wasn't too bad, and she didn't think she had too much bad karma....

So, why is it that she was reborn in a, what her friend's called, cockroach's place?!

Didn't she have enough good karma to make up for the bad? Was...was she truly that bad? Is this a punishment for something she forgot or thought to be not that sinful? Does she deserve taking his place because she should be getting all that hate?

Wasn't....wasn't dying for a stranger enough to at least give her some peace after being murdered?

"Mitsu~!"

Blinking, she jolted away from the mirror. Or, jolted away as much as a one year old can that is.

Turning her head, Mitsu was met with her 'father'. A tall, about 6'0'', young pale skinned man with very curly purple hair that was in the shape of balls and sharp black eyes. He wore a simple white shirt and black slacks, with a pair of yellow house slippers on.

The man that was crouching down was her new father, Mineta Moji.

It was easy to see that she got most of her looks from him, as she had very curly dark purple hair and black eyes. Yet, looking closer saw that the curls in his hair were actually little spheres. Moji loved to pop the spheres off and bounce them around for her, showing her that yes, super-powers were real. Maybe she'll get the same thing as him?

But, then again, she didn't know who her other parent is, so for all she knows she could be a copy of them and get their super-power instead. It wasn't that much of a leap of logic to think that she was an accident of a one night stand, because Moji looked like he was only in his early twenties, had no ring of any kind on him and she has not once seen him with someone else romantically. Just one more thing to add to the list of things that show her that she is next to worthless, if not worthless already.

"Mitsu-Chan, why are you crying?" Moji frowned before smirking joyfully. "Ah, did you miss Otousan? Don't worry my little princess, for I am here!"

Mitsu didn't even notice that she had been crying. Sniffing, she ignored her now dramatically posing parent. Instead, she thought about her name. Mitsu. While she had no idea what that meant, it still felt weird to be called that. Her old name....it was gone. She couldn't remember it.

It hurt.

Everything is gone.

It hurts.

-----------------------------------

"Where's the girl!?"

"Give her up and no one else has to die."

"I'm her! P-Please, j-just st-stop!"

"NO!"

"She lied to us!"

"No one's going to pay ransom-"

"Think your a hero, huh kid?"

*BANG*

--------------------------------------

"Mitsu!" Large hands grab her, lifting her up

"Ah!?" Giving a gasp, Mitsu blinked away the tears. Soon, she was able to make out Moji's concerned face.

Moji's concerned face faded quickly, plastering on a grin. "A pretty girl like you shouldn't be crying! A smile suits you better!"

Forcing a smile on her face, the same became a little bit more real when Moji gave a cheer at seeing her smile. Mitsu sniffed once more. She knew that everything wasn't going to be okay right off the bat, she knew that the world was most likely going to spit on her than love her, but in this moment, she felt that maybe it wouldn't be too bad. Not as bad as she thinks it will be, at the very least.

'It hurts....but with time, maybe the pain will go go away?' Mitsu's smile grew tight. 'Or maybe the pain will grow...'

And here she thought that going to a rich private school on a scholarship only to later give herself up in place of someone else leading to her death was going to be the most scariest thing she has ever done.

Instead it's what happened after death that has got her the most scared she has ever been, in either life.

But, for now, all she can focus on is being everything that Mineta Minoru was not.

Easier said than done.

-----------------------------------------------

Mineta Moji was a simple man that loved simple pleasures that make up life.

In other words; He was a pervert and proud of it.

Moji expected many things because of this, being an out and open pervert. Getting slapped was a given, even kicked where the sun doesn't shine. Getting women or men was hard, or expensive, but worth it. He didn't want a lasting relationship, and he made sure that was known. It was a simple life filled with pleasure, something he loved, wanted and expected.

So, when his last one night stand came up to him, dropped a newborn in his arms along with some official looking papers, said it was his and wanted nothing to do with It, and then left him while he sputtered at her calling a baby 'It', it was the last thing he expected. Sure, he knew there was a chance of children if he wasn't careful, but he didn't expect a child so soon, especially when he was careful.

He absolutely did not expect a daughter either.

At twenty, he was a father, and had no idea what the fuck to do.

His own parents had told him to give her up for adoption when he came to them for advice. Mostly because, in their own words, the girl was a bastard. Something in him gagged in disgust at that very thought and he snarled at them like an animal at them calling the newborn in his arms something like that. So, even with his own low-paying job as a simple office worker, he decided to not take their advice - and cut off most communication between them.

He always wanted the simple life, even when he was young that was all he wanted, and having a daughter wasn't really a simple matter. A son would be easier, simpler, to raise. He knew how most boys worked, knew the phases and what to expect for the most part. Females, on the other hand, were complicated. He didn't understand them past that they were pretty to look at - and that they had a hell of a slap and kick when it came down to it. Raising a girl, no matter how he looked at it, would be difficult.

But, looking into the eyes of his daughter one year later, seeing them shine from her tears and the light, and squiggly smile, Moji couldn't find it in himself to regret keeping her.

'I might not be the best father ever... or even a good one.' Moji grinned, pulling his daughter close to hold her to his chest. 'I might make mistakes and mess this whole thing up. But, I think I need a little complication in my life instead of just the simple things.'

It'd be hard, and he'd have to either work up the ranks in his job, find another job, or work more than one job, but he knew in the depths of his soul that it would be worth it.

He's young. He's foolish. He has every chance to mess this up.

Yet, for the life of him, Moji for the first time even in his life, wanted to do something right and worthwhile for once in his life. He could see the light brighter than ever with his daughter in his life.

Naming her Mitsu was a simple thing, even if the reasons for it weren't.

She was his light, someone that shines in his eyes, and in those eyes, he can see his own reflection in them; making him see his own heart and self in those dark eyes. Everything about her made him reflect on his own life, down to his very core.

Mitsu, his shinning light. The person who made him reflect on his own life.

'Mitsu-Chan...' Glancing to the baby tucked into his chest, he smiled gently. 'I can tell that you are going to do great things, becoming a light to many others, not just me.'

Then, something hit him. Like a woman slapping him on the cheek after he tries to get her number again after multiple rejections. Or a man hitting him because he decided to flirt with him.

"Wait....I DON'T WANT TO SHARE YOU OR GIVE YOU UP TO SOME BOY OR GIRL!"

"WAH?!"

-End Chapter-

Like I said in the top notes, I am making up the Mineta family. And I though a young, single father that is perverted or a huge flirt would make sense. Like, if Mitsu was male, I can see Moji teaching him some perverted things and making it look okay, or at the least encouraging it. Even if it is accidental on Moji's part. But, having a daughter changed him slightly, curving his more extreme behavior, and this will show in the story, even if he is still perverted, or at the very least a huge flirt like you wouldn't believe. A flirt who doesn't discriminate either, meaning he'll flirt with just about anyone and anything, as I wanted to make him different and not a copy of Canon!Mineta.

There are going to be other OC's in this story, just mentioning that now.

Mitsu, while not shown a lot here as it is only the prologue/first part, is shy and has a lot of problems - obviously. Really, she's a nervous wreak riddled with so much anxiety and self-doubt it's not funny. This will show more as she gets older, meets new people and is in more settings.

She is also very smart, as she did study a lot in her past life and will continue to do so in her new life.

Please, keep in mind she has never watched the anime or read the manga of BNHA, even if she does know what some characters look like - sort of - and a few little facts/opinions that her friends shared with her. Most of what she knows is from her friends who watched or read it, so what she knows is biased information and twisted facts. And with all the hate Mineta got from them, she doesn't have a good view of herself at all.

In any case, I hope you all enjoyed the chapter/story! There's more to come.
