My Hero Academia Synopsis
The emergence of “Quirks”—newly discovered
superpowers—has been steadily increasing over the years, with 80 percent of
humanity possessing various abilities, from elemental manipulation to
shapeshifting. This leaves the rest of the world completely powerless, and
Izuku Midoriya is one such individual. Ever since he was a child, the ambitious
high school student has wanted nothing more than to be a hero. Izuku’s unfair
fate leaves him admiring heroes and taking notes on them whenever he can. But
it seems 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 as his successor!
After enduring many months of grueling training, Izuku
enrolls at UA Academy, a prestigious prep school renowned for its excellent
hero training program, and this year’s freshmen look especially promising. With
his strange but talented classmates and the looming threat of an evil
organization, Izuku will soon learn what it truly means to be a hero.
