Looking for fanfics where the main character is over estimated. Like the character is doing mundane things/attacks and to his enemies it seems like high level attacks. I think I've read a few Naruto fics and Ranma fics like that but I can't think of any specific ones. Like this one:

They always make for a funny read.

One the other end of the spectrum, fics where people underestimate the main character... like Slay Hard by MMcGregor.

Make a Wish- Harry Potter
Harry decides he is going to live a little before he dies facing Voldermont so he goes on a vacation through europe. During it, various events (such as death eaters appirating onto a train track and being run over) are attributed to him being a super powerful wizard spy. He pretty much does nothing strange, but everyone keeps assuming he is a super spy and extremly powerful. For example, he decides to not go back to his hotel room and calls an artist who did a painting an amutuer, and the law enforment that were spying on him assumed he knew what they were doing and that they had bugged his room.

Not really the best written fic ever, and it does get boring after a while, but is kinda funny.

Only fic I can think of that meets your requirments.

Thanks for that, I had read some of it before, but lost interest.

I did remember another Naruto fic though, was called the Book of Naruto... or something like that.

Actually that's not really good example as yes in the start it seems that way but in the later part of the story and ts sequels Harry more or less IS that good... which is bizare-_-

Wouldn't the fic where Harry is known as Mr. Black qualify? Can't remember the name though.
