From Nintendo Life: “Few shonen anime series fit popular culture’s continued obsession with western superhero tropes quite as well as My Hero Academia. This long-running manga and anime follows the journey of Izuku Midoriya, a young boy born without powers (or Quirks, as they’re known in the series’ canon) in a world where extraordinary abilities are now the norm. Taken under the wing of super icon All Might, our boy Izuku must learn to be a hero at a school for exceptional talents while navigating the melodrama of education. While it might sound like a cross between the X-Men and Persona, the emotional core of its overarching story has always helped ground the silliness of its concept.”
