In My Hero Academia, some people have superpowers called quirks. Izuku Midoriya aka Deku is not one of them. Deku has always idolized heroes such as the number one hero All Might, and since childhood he has always wanted to be a hero. However, his lack of quirks has always held him back, but a chance encounter with All Might after discovering a classmate in danger sets Deku on the path to becoming a true hero. My hero academy is centered around Deku and the class of heroes trained at UA. This school trains young quirk users into future heroes through mock rescue missions, combat training, and other hero-hardening tasks. With young Deku inheriting the One for All trait, he learns what it means to be a true hero as he faces off against dastardly supervillains.
