What would the world be like if 80 percent of the population manifested extraordinary superpowers called “Quirks” at age four? Heroes and villains would be battling it out everywhere! Becoming a hero would mean learning to use your power, but where would you go to study? U.A. High's Hero Program of course! But what would you do if you were one of the 20 percent who were born Quirkless?
Middle school student Izuku Midoriya wants to be a hero more than anything, but he hasn't got an ounce of power in him. With no chance of ever getting into the prestigious U.A. High School for budding heroes, his life is looking more and more like a dead end. Then an encounter with All Might, the greatest hero of them all gives him a chance to change his destiny…

Where it came from
My Hero Academia began serialization in Shonen Jump in 2014, written and illustrated by Kohei Horikoshi, before being adapted into a television series by Studio Bones in 2016. The series was conceived as a fresh take on the superhero genre, blending traditional American comic book tropes with the sensibilities of Japanese shonen manga. Horikoshi sought to explore the complexities of a society where superpowers, known as Quirks, are the norm, focusing on the character growth of protagonist Izuku Midoriya as he strives to become a hero despite being born without powers.
The 2016 anime adaptation by Studio Bones is widely credited with cementing the franchise’s global success. Known for their high-quality animation and fluid action sequences, the studio aimed to translate Horikoshi’s dynamic character designs into a vibrant, cinematic experience. Upon its release, the series received significant critical acclaim for its earnest tone and character-driven narrative, helping to expand the popularity of shonen anime to a broader, international audience.
