Not everyone needs a licence to fight for justice!

In a superpowered society, there is nothing ordinary about evil anymore. Heroes, trained and licensed to protect and defend the public against supervillains, stand above all the rest. Not everyone can be a hero, however, and there are those who would use their powers to serve the people without legal sanction. But do they fight for justice in the shadows, or for reasons known only to themselves? Whatever they fight for, they are called…vigilantes.

Koichi Haimawari couldn’t make the cut to become an official hero, so he uses his modest Quirk to do good deeds in his spare time. Then one day a fateful encounter with some local thugs leads him to team up with two other unlikely heroes. None of them really know what they’re doing, but they’ve got the courageβ€”or foolishnessβ€”to try. But they soon discover fighting evil takes more than just being brave…

My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, Vol. 1 by Hideyuki Furuhashi explores the story of those who fight for justice from the shadows, braving the unforeseen challenges in a world filled with superpowers.
