My Hero Academia, Vol. 3

Imagine a world where 80 percent of the population has manifested superpowers known as “Quirks.” In such a society, heroes and villains engage in constant battles, and mastering one’s unique abilities becomes essential. Aspiring heroes would naturally flock to the revered Hero Academy, a place where they would learn to hone their skills and embrace their destinies. But what about the remaining 20 percent, those born Quirkless? For young Izuku Midoriya, being Quirkless had always meant a life on the sidelines, dreaming of heroism from afar—until everything changed.

In My Hero Academia, Vol. 3, the U.A. High School first-year students find themselves in the crossfire of a sinister group of villains. These malevolent forces have infiltrated the U.A. students' training session at the USJ (Unforeseen Simulation Joint) facility, with a deadly agenda in mind. Though their ultimate target is the legendary hero All Might, Midoriya and his classmates bravely stand their ground, pushing themselves to their limits to stave off the threat. The scenario grows increasingly dire as they await reinforcement, and tensions mount as the battle rages on.

When All Might arrives, his heroic presence shifts the momentum. However, the greatest hero faces his own limitations as the usage of his powers drains his energy rapidly. In a desperate gamble to protect the students and maintain his heroic facade, All Might may have to resort to a risky bluff, a strategy fraught with danger.

Kohei Horikoshi masterfully weaves action, suspense, and character development, exploring the depths of heroism and courage even in the face of overwhelming adversity. My Hero Academia, Vol. 3 continues the thrilling journey of Midoriya and his friends, as they confront not just external villains, but their own fears and weaknesses. Experience the intensity and heart of a series that delves into what it truly means to be a hero.
