All Might, the number one hero, chooses an unlikely successor: Izuku Midoriya, a middle schooler born without a quirk. While 80 percent of humanity possesses these superhuman abilities, Izuku can only study the heroes he admires and keep notes on their exploits. Becoming a hero has been his dream since childhood, and meeting his idol gives him a way forward. All Might's unusual quirk can be passed on to someone else.
After months of demanding training, Izuku enrolls at UA High, a prestigious school known for its hero training program. He joins a particularly promising freshman class filled with eccentric, talented students. Alongside the challenges of his education, the threat of a villainous organization looms as Izuku begins learning what being a hero requires.
