Synopsis of My Hero Academia:
The appearance of “quirks”, newly discovered superpowers, has been increasing over the years, and 80 percent of humanity possesses various abilities, from manipulating elements to shape-shifting. This leaves the rest of the world completely powerless, and Izuku Midoriya is one of those individuals.
Izuku’s unfair fate leaves him admiring heroes and taking notes on them whenever he can. But it seems that his persistence has paid off: Izuku meets the number one hero and his personal idol, All Might. All Might’s quirk is a unique ability that can be inherited, and he has chosen Izuku to be his successor!
After many months of exhausting training, Izuku enrolls in UA High, a prestigious high school famous for its excellent hero training program, and this year’s freshmen look especially promising. With his strange but talented classmates and the imminent threat of a villainous organization, Izuku will soon learn what it really means to be a hero.
