My Hero Academia is an original story based on the manga written and illustrated by Kohei Horikoshi. It is set in a world where about 80% of the population has a superpowered Quirk. Heroes protect people and society from accidents, disasters, and villains—criminals who use their Quirks for evil. The story of Izuku Midoriya and his classmates at U.A. High School, as well as their growth, battles, and friendships, unfolds as they strive to become heroes. The anime series will release its eighth and final season in Fall 2025.
In My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, Koichi Haimawari is a dull college student who aspires to be a hero but has given up on his dream. Although 80% of the world's population has superhuman powers called Quirks, few are chosen to become heroes and protect people. Everything changes for Koichi when he and Pop☆Step are saved by the vigilante Knuckleduster and get recruited to become vigilantes themselves!
Based on the manga of the same name created by Hideyuki Furuhashi, Betten Court, and Kohei Horikoshi, My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 2 is directed by Kenichi Suzuki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders; Cells at Work!). The series composition and script is written by Yosuke Kuroda (My Hero Academia; Trigun). The animation is produced by Bones Film (My Hero Academia; Gachiakuta).
