"My Hero Academia" takes place in a world where 80% of the population possesses a special ability known as a "quirk", unique to the individual person. This story follows Izuku Midoriya. He's a boy who spent his childhood looking up to his idol, All Might. All Might is one of the strongest heroes, also known as the "Symbol of Peace", who spends his time fighting evil. He dreams of becoming a great hero like All Might, but never developed a quirk. His only chance at becoming a hero is to make it into UA High School, the #1 hero training academy. He is constantly picked on for not having a quirk by his classmate Katsuki Bakugou, and calls Midoriya "Deku" as an insult. Midoriya meets All Might, and discovers All Might's quirk is known as "One For All", giving him high strength and making him almost impossible to beat. Unlike other quirks, this quirk can be passed down and gets stronger the more people it has been passed down to. All Might is revealed to have an injury that limits his time where he is able to use his quirk. Midoriya trains his endurance so his body can handle the quirk, and All Might passes the quirk onto him. Despite this, Midoriya can only use the quirk once and then breaks whatever part of his body he used the quirk with. The story progresses and both Bakugou and Midoriya make it into UA High School through a test where they must fight robots representing villians to earn points. Midoriya meets his classmates and teachers, who have mixed opinions on him. The rest of the show follows his journey on becoming a hero.
Probably gonna get bashed by the mha fandom but oh well.
