Chapter 2: And life shall start...for the second time!

Okay, I'll admit, I really wasn't expecting to fall prey to the famous anime genre, the much-acclaimed isekai!

It must be practically every weeb's dream, even I had several occasions when I wished that something would just take me out of my monotonous and dull world so that I could live amazing and unforgettable adventures.

It almost makes it worth all the time I spent in that void of endless darkness, kind of weird to think I'm a baby now. That doesn't even make sense! Babies' brains are too underdeveloped for them to be able to store any memories, so how is it possible that I have memories of my past life?

Oh well, I'll leave it as an unsolved mystery and put it on my growing list of questions for the being who left me here, I hope one day I'll be able to get the answers, I hate feeling powerless over anything, whether it's something human or beyond my understanding.

From what I could tell so far, I was in the world of famous anime/manga called My Hero Academia, a world where powers are the norm for 80% of the population, but the protagonist is one of the unlucky ones who was born without a power.

How did I know that? Well, I myself never got to see the anime or read the manga, there were just a lot of other things I had to focus on and my common hobby was watching funny videos on the internet, the good old shitposts and memes. Exquisite!

However, in my crusade through the countless types of videos that were running wild in the internet, at times I came across videos that talked about My Hero Academia, especially about certain characters in the plot.

And one of them was what I now call my twin sister, Himiko Toga.

I admit, I have no idea what goes into the plot, so I don't really want to try to make changes to something I don't even know about, I'll just let things go with the flow. Although, I know my sister will become a villain in the future, this is something I want to avoid, it's well known that villains don't usually have the best endings in stories and I don't want that for my little sister.

Is it weird to already feel so attached to someone? This has always been common in my other life, there were times when I paid the price for being so naive and it was something I did my best to change.

From what I knew of the plot, the powers could be hereditary, or be a mixture of the so-called..."quirks" of a child's parents, I think that's the name given to them. Oh, or it could also be something completely different caused by a mutation, very fascinating the way these powers work, I hope to have the chance to learn more about the emergence of so-called "quirks".

I really don't want to be one of those unlucky ones who a born without one, my luck was never amazingly good but it wasn't too bad either.

I find it quite unlikely that whatever took me out of my world put me here just so I wouldn't have powers, it would be pretty anticlimactic, but you never know with these beings that go way beyond human understanding.

I pray it's something useful, something that at least allows me to use my imagination, which I admit is pretty chaotic most of the time, after all, there has to be a reason why I've been thrown here, in a world of villains and heroes, where ideologies clash all the time and danger is everywhere.

If I'm here now, it's for some purpose, I refuse to be just one person in the crowd again.

"Eeeeeh, Haruka-chan! You're making such an intense face! Are you hungry? Do you need to go to the bathroom?"

Oh yeah, all this new world talk even made me forget about my current situation. I think you noticed that I don't usually pay attention to things for a long time.

So I'm a baby now.

Cool huh?

WRONG!

Being a baby sucks! Gaining consciousness only at the age of 4 is a blessing that unfortunately I won't have the opportunity to have this time.

All I can do at the moment is eat, sleep and shit! I can't even move properly, I can't control my arms well enough, and don't even talk to me about my head, I just can't keep it steady, my neck isn't developed to support its weight yet.

I've been stuck in this body for at least a few months now, at first it was much worse, I didn't even have the energy to stay awake most of the time, I had to depend on my new parents for everything, and for a person who always did most of things alone? That was horrible, will my punishment ever end!?

Jokes aside, I have to say that things have been pretty quiet, our family's financial situation was not bad at all, on the contrary, we lived comfortably in a two-story house, much bigger than the house I used to live in my old life.

Speaking of new life, I recently got to see what I look like in this new form.

And I must say, I was not disappointed! Being an anime character comes with some really cool bonuses in terms of appearance, huh?

My hair is now blonde, which I'm really excited about, after all, after having the same boring black hair for two decades, something new like this makes me excited about the future.

My skin is quite pale, which makes me realize that I got most of my mother's traits.

But what really impressed me were my eyes.

They are yellow. Yellows! Can you believe it!?

I confess that I was staring at myself in the mirror for a while admiring these new characteristics of mine.

Don't worry, I'm not a narcissist.

My sister looks a lot like me, kind of obvious considering we're twins, but we're not quite identical, something that relieved me a lot, I really didn't want to be thrown into a new world with a different gender, I think that would drive me even more crazy.

My dad in this life is a doctor, he seems to be a surgeon, I still can't figure out what his quirk is, I think my parents don't use them much or they're just not flashy. Or maybe they are part of the 20% of the population dubbed "quirkless".

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, his name is Haruno Toga.

I was wondering if everyone in my family would have the same initials, but I found out one day that my mother's name is Akame Toga, it has a very pleasant sound, not gonna lie.

She spends most of her day taking care of us, I don't know if she had a job before conceiving us or if she is a housewife.

In short, I've been enjoying this new life, I hope it stays that way.
