project Scarlett

Akari Aya is not your average UA High student. Born with a reality-warping quirk that mirrors the powers of the Scarlet Witch, Akari has the ability to alter the fabric of reality itself-but only when her emotions spiral out of control. As the daughter of All For One, a legendary villain whose shadow looms over her, Akari's life has been shaped by a dangerous inheritance. She's determined to keep her past hidden and her powers in check, but it's a struggle she's losing.

When Akari enrolls at UA to become a hero, she's determined to prove herself-if only to escape her father's influence. But she didn't count on the fiery and explosive Katsuki Bakugo. What begins as a rivalry quickly evolves into a complex, fiery connection. As Akari and Bakugo grow closer, they must navigate the tension between their opposing personalities, their quirks, and the overwhelming feelings that start to bloom between them.

However, Akari's powers are a double-edged sword. As the year progresses, the weight of her father's legacy grows heavier, and the chaos she can create becomes harder to control. With every emotional outburst, the boundaries between what's real and what's warped blur. Her heart pulls her toward Bakugo, but her quirk could destroy everything she loves.

And it's not just her quirk that's dangerous-villains from her father's past begin to make their move, threatening the fragile life she's trying to build. As Akari and Bakugo face greater threats from all sides, the line between heroism and villainy becomes dangerously thin. Can Akari control the volatile power inside her, or will she become the very thing she's feared?

A story of love, power, and inner turmoil, this series delves into the struggle between embracing one's true self and the dark legacy that comes with it. In a world that expects her to choose between hero or villain, Akari must decide who she really wants to be-and if Bakugo's love can survive the storm brewing within her.
