Volume 1
In a world where 80% of the population has a superpower called alter, heroes are part of everyday life. And the super-villains too! Facing them stands the invincible All Might, the most powerful hero! Young Izuku Midoriya is an absolute fan of it. He has only one dream: to enter the Hero Academia to follow in the footsteps of his idol. The problem is that he is one of the 20% who have no power... His destiny is changed the day his road crosses that of All Might in person! The latter gives him an unhoped chance to see his dream come true. For Izuku, the journey of the fighter is only beginning!
Volume 2
Izuku, who was targeted by a super-villain, was rescued by his master's hand by his idol in person! He discovered then that All Might, who was greatly reduced by an old wound, could no longer use his alter only three hours a day... Also, when his comrade Katsuki was attacked a few moments later, his blood was only one turn: despite his terror, he rushed to the rescue of the young boy! Witness to this act of bravery, All Might decided to make Izuku his successor. After a drastic training, our apprentice hero managed to integrate the prestigious Yuei high school, but there was a hit: he could not control the One for All, the power inherited from All Might...
Volume 3
Confronted with the Eraserhead aptitude test, Deku barely escapes the referral by succeeding in concentrating the One for All in one finger at the crucial moment! Last of the rankings with a single superhuman performance to his credit, he intends to give everything to climb the slope. And precisely, he will have the opportunity to prove himself, since his training in the superhero profession finally begins... But the rescue training runs short when a horde of villains enters the SCA in order to kill the symbol of peace! Disseminated throughout the area, the second A manages to stand up to the enemy until the arrival of All Might... Alas, he has only a few minutes left to defeat Brainless before losing his heroic form!
Volume 4
A new challenge awaits Class 2-A: the Yuei Championship, one of the most anticipated sporting events in Japan! For our aspiring heroes, it is a golden opportunity to be noticed by professionals... Needless to say, the competition is fierce! Thanks to his talent for improvisation, Deku climbs to the top of the rankings at the end of the first event, a Yuei-style obstacle course. But will he be able to maintain his title in the rider battle? Further and further! The Shonen Jump nation of superheroes finally arrives!
Volume 5
And the third round of the championship begins! The 16 remaining students will face off in a no-holds-barred tournament... Confronted with a mind control alter, Deku manages to win his first duel by activating One for All in two of his fingers before sending his opponent out of the ring! But the next match promises to be arduous, as his opponent is none other than Shoto, and the young boy is determined to win. Meanwhile, Ochaco is about to face Katsuki... The fight promises to be explosive!
Volume 6
Deeply frustrated by the fact that Shoto refuses to fight fully, Izuku cannot help pushing him to use his flames... His determination and his words manage to touch his opponent, who, for a moment, forgets his grudge against his father to give himself 100%! But the young boy still doubts, and the tournament ends with an overwhelming victory for Katsuki. Now, it's a completely different challenge that awaits the second A: finding their future name as hero!

For Izuku, there is no hesitation: his codename will be Deku! It is under this identity that he goes to Gran Torino for his very first training session.
