In a society where heroes and villains continuously battle in the name of peace and chaos, Deku, a U.A.

The manga started its serialization in “Weekly Shonen Jump” in July 2014 and concluded on August 5, 2024. The TV anime premiered its first season in April 2016, followed by multiple seasons and movies, with the seventh season presently airing.
Crunchyroll describes the story of the My Hero Academia anime:
Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.
