My Hero Academia began in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump on July 7, 2014, and ran for over a decade, ending on August 5, 2024. The series has spawned seven complete TV anime seasons – with the eighth and final on the way – three spin-off manga series, four anime original films, four video games and sparked the imagination of people worldwide. A live-action Hollywood film has also been announced with Shinsuke Sato directing for Legendary Entertainment. All of the currently released My Hero Academia TV anime episodes are streaming on Crunchyroll, as well as the My Hero Academia: Two Heroes anime film and a collection of specials, with the streamer describing the series as such:
Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.
