Overview
My Hero Academia is a multimedia franchise represented in Volluble by 44 connected works across 7 media categories. This hub organizes the franchise by release chronology and gives newcomers a clear starting point.
Synopsis
In a society where nearly everyone is born with a superpower called a Quirk, Izuku Midoriya has none—yet he idolizes heroes and dreams of joining their ranks. After a chance encounter with the legendary All Might, Izuku inherits a Quirk and enters U.A. High School, where he trains alongside gifted classmates to become a professional hero.
The central conflict pits aspiring heroes against villains who exploit Quirks and challenge the fragile peace. Izuku and his friends face school competitions, internships, and escalating threats that force them to confront what heroism truly demands. The ensemble grows to include rivals like Katsuki Bakugo, mentors, and pro heroes whose choices shape a changing world. The series blends large-scale action with quieter character drama, following Izuku's growth from powerless dreamer to symbol of hope.
Across seasons, films, and spin-offs, the story widens beyond U.A. to explore vigilantes, international missions, and other corners of hero society. Each expansion adds new perspectives while keeping Izuku's journey—and the question of who can be a hero—at its heart.
