(異世界に転生したんだけど俺、天才って勘違いされてない? Isekai ni Tensei Shitandakedo Ore, Tensai tte Kanchigai Saretenai?, translating as "I've been reincarnated into another world, but am I being misunderstood as a genius?") is a 2014 web novel series written by Nyun, later adapted into a light novel series illustrated by Sakana. The series reached three volumes before going on indefinite hiatus. All the released volumes have been translated into English by J-Novel Club.After dying in a motorcycling accident, the deceased is reborn with past-life knowledge (but no past-life memories) as Kouki Arakawa, son of scientist Miki Arakawa, in an alternate version of Japan. His childhood sketches somehow inspire his mother to develop a revolutionary new scientific theory, which becomes the first of many scientific and technological advances Kouki coincidentally inspires in his mother, making those in the known think he is an unparalleled natural-born genius, while he himself is unaware of his role in his mother's achievements.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })When the "truth" behind Kouki is discovered by the world's governments, misunderstandings about events in his childhood make them think that while the fruits of his genius are indispensable to the world, he might be ethically challenged, so they make him attend Japan's International Science and Technology Academy in order to develop ethics, while also creating a secret global pact to not interfere in Kouki's life, lest it should lead to global conflict.Unaware of any of this, Kouki suddenly finds himself at the Academy rather than the low-achievement high school he had been looking forward to. There he meets medicine student Alice Alford, robotics engineer student Shingo Saitou, and expert on space exploration student Megumi Aikawa. Every time Kouki uses his knowledge from his past life, it causes a new misunderstanding, and his ordinary life is gradually turning into an extraordinary life. Kouki can't help but go from one misunderstanding to another in this insane sci-fi comedy!!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Empty Eyes: When Kouki was born, his mom thought that his eyes were like black, round holes, devoid of emotion, likely because he was born with an adult's intelligence and didn't know how a baby should act.

Black Eyes of Evil: Kind of subverted. When Kouki was born, his mom thought that his eyes were like black, round holes devoid of emotion, making her terrified for a moment. This was most likely caused in part by Kouki being born with a Face of a Thug, and, more importantly, in part because he was born possessing an adult's intelligence and didn't really know how a baby should act. Kouki isn't evil, though (maybe a bit thoughtless), so it is a subversion.

Alternate Universe: Aside from the fact that Kouki's new life is at a date about 90 years later than the date of his past life death (he died in 2010 and was five again in 2102), the Earth he was reborn on is not the same Earth his past life died in, having significant historical differences, some as far back as the Middle Ages. Kouki's knowledge from his former Earth sometimes lets him know things that were never discovered or made public on his new Earth.

Mama Bear: Miki Arakawa, in spades. After a brief moment of terror in Kouki's eyes when he was born that she instantly regretted, she vowed always to protect him, even if the entire world rejected him. This isn't hyperbole; when Kouki's "secret" was revealed to the world's governments and she was called to a United Nations meeting about him, she suspected that they were considering eliminating Kouki as a threat to the world. She was fully prepared to take on the top leaders of the world, including the President of the United States, the President of China, and the Russian Prime Minister of Russia. This isn't an empty threat either; scientists all over the world would join up with her if she asked, and her husband, Shuuichi Arakawa, is the leader of an international military unit doing top-secret operations who in the past has taken down a small nation-state with a single squad. Luckily (for the national leaders of the world), they do not seek conflict with the Arakawas but peaceful cooperation.
