It was serialized in Shueisha's manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from July 2014 to August 2024, with its chapters collected in 42 volumes. Set in a world where superpowers (called "Quirks") have become commonplace, the story follows Izuku Midoriya, a boy who was born without a Quirk but still dreams of becoming a superhero himself. He is scouted by the world's greatest hero, All Might, who bestows his Quirk to Midoriya after recognizing his potential, and helps to enroll him in a prestigious high school for superheroes in training.
The manga spawned a media franchise, leading to numerous spin-off manga, such as My Hero Academia: Smash!!, My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, and My Hero Academia: Team-Up Missions. The series has also been expanded into light novels, stage plays, and various types of merchandise and media, including numerous video games. It has been adapted into an anime television series produced by Bones, which aired for eight seasons from April 2016 to December 2025. It has also spawned four animated films, subtitled Two Heroes, Heroes Rising, World Heroes' Mission, and You're Next, as well as ten original video animations (OVAs) and an upcoming television special that adapts a bonus chapter from the final volume of the manga. A live-action film by Legendary Entertainment is in development.
My Hero Academia became a commercial success and has appeared on The New York Times best-seller list several times. By April 2024, the manga had over 100 million copies in circulation, including sales of spin-offs, making it one of the best-selling manga series of all time. The series received praise for its art, characters, storytelling, action scenes, and its pop culture references to Western superhero comics. It has won several awards, including the Sugoi Japan Award and Harvey Award for Best Manga, and is considered one of the best of the 2010s.
Synopsis
Setting
My Hero Academia is set in a world where about 80% of the human population has gained superpowers called as a result of recent human evolution. Quirks vary widely and have the possibility of being genetically inherited, with the series' focal Quirk "One for All" being the only one that can be passed on without heritage. Most Quirks are generally small in scale, but some exhibit near god-like ability. Almost every Quirk has some sort of physical drawback, whether it be a usage limit or self-injury. Some Quirks also cause physical mutations to a person's body. Known as , people with these Quirks face discrimination and are given the pejorative "heteromorphs". The 20% of the population without Quirks, known as "Quirkless", also tend to get this treatment, albeit less severely. Quirks will generally manifest in an individual just after their toddler years.
As Quirks became dominant among the population, society melded around their existence and largely commodified around them. Although the first case of a Quirk was in China, in the following years Japan emerged as the country with by far the highest percentage of Quirk population and strength, using this influence to become a superpower country. Despite this, other countries such as the United States also have heavy Quirk populations and influence.
Among the Quirk-enhanced individuals, a few of them earn the title of Heroes, who cooperate with authorities in rescue operations and apprehending criminals who abuse their Quirks, commonly known as Villains. Heroes work out of Hero Agencies, which serves as their base of operations and a means for them to operate a business from their heroics. There are two different kinds of Hero Agency structures: one in which there is a single Hero owning the agency who also employs lower-level heroes called Sidekicks, and another in which a group of heroes will own an agency together as a team. In addition, Heroes who excel in their duties gain celebrity status and are recognized as . Heroes are ranked in popularity via the Hero Billboard Charts, with higher ranking heroes receiving public appeal, although it is not uncommon for novice heroes to gain popularity as well.
Pro Heroes begin their initial training in high school, of which U.A. High School in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan is considered by far the most prestigious. In addition to regular schooling, students are taught different forms of hero training such as combat and rescue operations, as well as how to meld their individual skills and overcome their drawbacks. Companies will also sponsor the students, mainly by constructing, repairing, and remodeling superhero suits for them. They also take part in events to show their skills to the public, such as sports festivals and cultural festivals. These events also serve as a way for Pro Heroes to scout students to intern for them. While initially forbidden from heroic work, students will eventually partake in the Provisional Hero License Exam, which gives them a temporary amateur Hero License before they become fully registered.
There are two types of internships that offer the opportunity to become a Pro Hero. The first type is the Hero Agency Internship in which the Pro Heroes can send a request to students that wish to work under them, such as in the aftermath of the Sports Festival. It involves a student shadowing a Pro Hero, listening to their advice, and watching them in action for a week. The second type is the Hero Work-Study, where, after a student acquires a Hero License, they can apply to function as real sidekicks. This also allows them to gain experience and can help them get noticed by other Pro Heroes who might hire them as full-time sidekicks once they graduate.
Initially the people who volunteered to do their heroic duties without permission were recognized as . Students who have acted as vigilantes are not allowed to work as heroes due to Quirk restriction laws managed by the . While the act of vigilantism is inherently illegal, the vigilantes themselves represent a moral gray area. The Hero Public Safety Commission originally enlisted vigilantes to do their dirty work until they became too organized for the vigilantes to properly deal with, so they abandoned the idea and instead focused on recruiting Pro Heroes. Some vigilantes wear costumes, but since they do not have access to support companies like heroes do, they are made out of regular clothes and everyday items.
Plot
List of My Hero Academia charactersList of My Hero Academia characters
Izuku "Deku" Midoriya is a Quirkless boy who, despite his lack of powers, dreams of becoming a Hero and attending U.A. High School, idolizing Japan's No. 1 Hero, All Might who also attended U.A. He is frequently picked on by others for this, particularly his childhood friend Katsuki Bakugo. One day, All Might witnesses Deku attempt to save Bakugo from a villain, making him choose Deku to inherit his Quirk "One For All"—which gives him the ability to stockpile his raw power and pass it on to others—and become his successor. All Might was severely injured by his arch-nemesis All For One, whose Quirk allows him to steal other Quirks for his use and pass them over to others at his will. After nearly a year of physical training, Deku inherits One For All and passes the entrance exam to U.A. by saving Ochaco Uraraka. Deku, Ochaco, and Bakugo are among the twenty students placed in Class 1-A, where Deku's tenacity earns him several friends. During one of their classes, Class 1-A encounters the League of Villains, led by All For One's apprentice Tomura Shigaraki. Shigaraki attempts to use an artificial being called a Nomu to kill All Might, but All Might overpowers it.
Class 1-A takes part in a sports festival with the rest of their grade. During this, Deku helps his classmate Shoto Todoroki move on from his resentment of his father–the No. 2 Hero Endeavor–for mistreating him and his family. As the sports festival ends, 1-A's Class Representative Tenya Ida's older brother is crippled by Stain, a villain who believes most heroes only desire fame. As the U.A. students go on their Hero Agency internships, Ida finds Stain and attempts to get revenge, though Stain is ultimately defeated by Deku and Todoroki. Stain's ideology spreads, and many of his believers join the League of Villains, including Dabi, Himiko Toga, and Twice. After the class finishes final exams, the League of Villains' recruits ambush Classes 1-A and 1-B while they are training at a summer camp, and kidnap Bakugo in the hopes of recruiting him. All Might leads several heroes in locating the League of Villains' hideout, where All For One reveals himself. Deku and some of his friends rescue Bakugo as All Might battles All For One. All For One is defeated and imprisoned, but All Might exhausts the last of One For All's power and retires. Endeavor, now the No. 1 Hero, is humbled by his added responsibility and begins trying to make amends with his family.
The class partakes in their Provisional Hero License Exam, which Todoroki and Bakugo fail and take remedial courses handling children with powerful Quirks. Afterwards, Class 1-A meets with the "Big Three", U.A. High School's top-ranked seniors who select a few Class 1-A students to join them as interns; one of the Big Three, Mirio Togata selects Deku to join his internship with All Might's former sidekick Sir Nighteye. Nighteye's team comes into conflict with the Shie Hassaikai, a yakuza group formerly allied with the League of Villains who are experimenting on their boss's granddaughter Eri to produce Quirk-Destroying Drugs. Nighteye leads his agency, alongside those of the other Big Three, in a raid to save Eri, during which Nighteye is killed and Mirio is de-powered. Eri is taken in by the U.A. staff, and Class 1-A performs a rock concert for her during the school culture festival. During a battle exercise with Class 1-B, Deku begins to awaken all of the Quirks used by the previous users of One For All. He eventually continues his internship under Endeavor, alongside Bakugo and Todoroki.
The League of Villains defeats and merges with another villain group, the Meta Liberation Army, forming the Paranormal Liberation Front. A war ensues between the Paranormal Liberation Front and the pro and training heroes; Twice is killed by the new No. 2 hero Hawks, but most of the remaining top members escape, including Shigaraki, who now inherits All For One's Quirk and is possessed by him. Mirio is re-powered by Eri, and joins the heroes partway through the war. Ochaco develops sympathy for Toga after the latter interrogates her about Twice's death. Dabi reveals himself as the presumed-dead son of Endeavor, whose abuse led him to villainy, which in combination with the collateral damage of the war, shatters the public's trust in heroes. Thousands of imprisoned Villains break out, including the original All For One, causing Japan to descend into chaos. Believing his classmates are no longer be safe, Deku reveals One for All and leaves U.A. to hunt for All For One with Japan's top heroes. However, this leads Deku to physical ruin, and his classmates intervene to bring him back to U.A., which is now a refugee camp. Civilians protest Deku's return until Ochaco pleads to them that heroes need protection too.
After Deku recovers, Class 1-A student Yuga Aoyama is discovered to be a double agent for All For One and the one responsible for the first two League of Villains attacks. After reconciling with his class, the Heroes uses Aoyama's connection to lure the Paranormal Liberation Front into a trap that scatters them across the country for the remaining members to be defeated by the heroes. Toga transforms into Twice using her Quirk with Twice's blood and she nearly kills Ochaco, but the two girls come to an understanding and Toga dies saving Ochaco's life through a fatal blood transfusion. The Todoroki family subdues Dabi after preventing his suicidal final attack. All For One attempts to reach Shigaraki's location but is stalled by many heroes, including All Might using a powered exoskeleton, as well as a handful of reformed Villains. All for One's original body is destroyed by Bakugo, causing Shigaraki to briefly regain control of his body as he battles Deku, before being repossessed. Unable to defeat Shigaraki physically, Deku forcefully transfers One For All during Shigaraki's brief moment of control to damage him from within. Deku, aided by hero reinforcements, strikes the killing blow on both All For One and Shigaraki.
Eight years later, Deku's One For All has completely faded, rendering him Quirkless once again. He is now a hero course teacher at U.A, while his former classmates work as pro heroes or sidekicks. All Might gifts Deku a powered suit that replicates his old quirks, funded by both his former classmates and All Might's old colleagues, which he uses to return to hero work while continuing to teach at U.A. In the following months, Deku enters a relationship with Ochaco and becomes the No. 4 Hero.
Production
Development
Writer Kōhei Horikoshi stated that after his previous series Barrage was canceled after just two volumes, he was depressed and out of ideas. To formulate more ideas, he revisited a one-shot he previously published in Akamaru Jump, titled . This would end up being the basis for My Hero Academia. Horikoshi was also an avid fan of American films and comics, such as Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, Star Wars, and X-Men, which he used for inspiration. Horikoshi cites Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto manga series as being the main influence for his art, specifically stating it gave him a love for drawing hands. Horikoshi has also cited Dragon Ball, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider as sources of inspiration. Additionally, Horikoshi noted that he is a fan of the kaiju franchises Gamera and Godzilla and has mentioned and made reference to them in several comments.
Hitoshi Koike, the editor of My Hero Academia, said that Horikoshi already had a general story in mind for the manga. However, he also noted there were many rejected story ideas, and that Horikoshi dismissed some ideas himself. Koike also stated that Horikoshi liked to use his inspirations. Koike additionally noted My Hero Academias first three chapters took longer to complete than many other new serialized works. Koike and Horikoshi worked on character design concepts while finishing the storyboards; Koike felt excited about the characters' designs despite not knowing their role in the plot.
Kengo Monji, the second editor of the manga, said Horikoshi had a difficult time writing chapters at first. Monji felt that the manga was mixing the flair of Japan's manga with "heroes", a concept that he thought was understandable to a wide audience. Monji also complimented Horikoshi's artwork, noting its cartoon-style.
Conclusion
Horikoshi originally stated that My Hero Academia would not be as long as One Piece since he felt he did not have enough stamina; he instead preferred to keep it concise in comparison to other manga series. In April 2021, Horikoshi stated that the series had continued for longer than expected, but that it was still leading toward the ending that he had decided upon before the series began. In December 2021, he stated during an interview at Jump Festa '22 that "if things go smoothly, the manga will meet its goal to end in one year. If it doesn't go smoothly, I think voice actor Yamashita will be reading out the exact same letter from me at next year's Jump Festa." He also teased that Katsuki Bakugo would soon get a "big scene". Horikoshi wrote in the 34th volume of the manga that "I feel like I can finally see the goal in sight. It's a rather strange feeling getting to this point. In the past, I would just be drawing without a single care the future, but now I wonder just how many more times can I draw these characters? Change is scary as you grow older. Well, I really shouldn't dwell on that! Until next volume then!". In October 2022, the author rescinded the statement he made during Jump Festa '22, opting to take longer to complete the manga's final arc than initially expected.
In December 2022, although Horikoshi stated that his estimations were wrong, he said that the ending of the manga is "very close". In December 2023, he reiterated on what he said in the previous year's event. However, he added that there were still many things he wanted to draw beyond the battle that was currently ongoing in the manga. The author also jokingly said that "if the series continues until next year's Jump Festa, we will hold a Dogeza Festival on the stage." In June 2024, Shueisha announced in the year's 27th issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump that the manga had entered its "epilogue" with the 424th chapter. Horikoshi stated in his comment that although the conclusion of a story is usually short, it is not the kind of manga to end immediately after defeating the villain, and so it will go on "a little longer," and he added that the manga would "return to its title." Later in the same month, it was announced that the series would end in five chapters after a ten-year run on August 5, 2024. The author expressed gratitude to his fans that made it possible for him to draw Deku and the others for the past ten years.
Themes and analysis
Horikoshi has stated that the main theme he focuses on is "what makes a hero". He also stated that he likes stories with bad endings, as well as horror stories. However, he finds these difficult to draw since the mood in his stories is based on his own current mood. To combat this, he adds in more silly-looking characters such as Fat Gum, in order to keep the mood up.
The series explores themes such as the nature of heroism, the importance of perseverance and determination, and the power of friendship and teamwork. Horikoshi said that he was inspired by the idea of creating a world where anyone, regardless of their background or abilities, could become a hero. He wanted to show that even those without powers could still make a difference and achieve their dreams through hard work and determination. That vision results in heroes in the series not being egotistical, but passionate and dedicated individuals with clear goals to work towards. The series also explores Izuku's idolization of heroes from a young age and his enthusiasm. In a world where superheroes are not just regulated, but commercialized brands, he still sees something inspiring in their actions.
My Hero Academia has been noted for its positive view of heroes. Cramer wrote that "in the modern world, we often challenge heroic ideals, and the motivations of the people who pursue them", noting how in American media, the optimism of the Silver Age of Comic Books lead to post-Watchmen ambiguity. He also noted that, even in Japan, unquestioned heroism is often challenged in modern revisions of older series, such as in Yatterman and Gatchaman.

People who know it will get it! Internationally, even... in any case, it's a great feeling. It's the same feeling I had when my work was first animated – no, series is more than that! And they aren't making me say this, it's the truth." Kishimoto also believed that it would be a success overseas. One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda also praised the series.

Critical reception
Nick Creamer of Anime News Network gave the first volume a B rating. Creamer praised Horikoshi's artwork, describing it as "absolutely professional" and "consistent and highly polished", but also stated that it was fast-paced and very sharply drawn. He praised the plot and characters, saying that despite it feeling like a typical shōnen plot, it did well enough to still feel fresh and entertaining. He also stated that the characters had great energy and personality. Isaac Akers from The Fandom Post gave the second volume a B+ rating. He praised the art, saying that Horikoshi's character designs and art bolster the volume's ability to feel as if it does everything it does just because the volume likes doing it. He concluded that My Hero Academia was a difficult series to dislike, making it as the "real joy to read" by executing the author's ideas and having enough nerve and twist. Sean Gaffney from A Case Suitable for Treatment referred to the art as "smooth" and complemented how it flows with the action. Gaffney also praised the story, characters, and fight scenes, stating that the story flows nicely with each of their individual personalities, while the fight scenes look smooth and non-confusing.
In a review of the second volume, Leroy Douresseaux from Comic Book Bin also praised the story, specifically the way it executed comedy and drama. He also compared the series to the other superhero works such as Tiger & Bunny and One-Punch Man, stating that My Hero Academia proved that "manga can do superhero comic books that are every bit as imaginative as American superhero comics". Manga Bookshelf praised the first volume for its art, saying that it demonstrated Horikoshi's skill very well, though criticizing it for having too much narration at some points. Reviewing volumes 1 to 19, Michelle Smith from Soliloquy in Blue called the plot "very good", but also stated that the main reason she liked the series was the characters, specifically praising most of the main cast. However, she criticized the series for not giving some of the female characters enough spotlight despite praising their varied character designs and personalities.
The series was chosen as one of the Best Manga at the Comic-Con International Best & Worst Manga in 2018 and 2019. Barnes & Noble named it on their list of "Our Favorite Manga of 2018", saying that "it combines the earnestness of superhero comics with the core elements of shonen manga", but also stated that the reason the story was a delight was due to Horikoshi's "endlessly inventive imagination", praising most of the characters' abilities that are more "quirks" than superpowers. Cold Cobra of Anime UK News picked the series for his list of "best manga of 2010s", praising its mix between the Japanese shonen action genre and American superhero comics. He stated that its cast of characters is what makes it stand out more than anything. He described the artwork as "wonderfully expressive and occasionally impressively shaded for those big full-page moments", which made it a joy to read.

Unit 731 controversy
In early 2020, the series caused a controversy in South Korea and China for a character's name allegedly referencing Unit 731, an infamous Imperial Japanese army unit known its immensely brutal and inhumane experiments on prisoners of war (POWs), including the vivisecting of captured Chinese, Korean, and Russian soldiers and civilians. In response, the series has been removed from digital platforms in China, and the character's name was changed to no longer reference Unit 731. A day prior, both Weekly Shōnen Jump manga magazine publisher Shueisha and the manga's author Kōhei Horikoshi issued individual apology statements on Twitter.
In the aftermath of the manga's removal from its services in China, the English-language news service Abacus reached out to bilibili and Tencent for its request. The former stated that the removal was "in accordance with China's policies" but declined to comment further, while the latter did not respond to Abacus' request for comment. The character's name was changed again in the digital version of Weekly Shōnen Jump following the backlash. Shueisha promised that "going forward, we intend to devote our energies toward deepening our understanding of a variety of historical and cultural matters." Both the publisher and manga's creator reiterated that the reference to war crimes within the character's name was wholly unintentional.
Following the controversy, the work has often been regarded as anti-China. In June 2025, there were multiple reports of cosplayers portraying characters from the work being attacked in China.
