Season 1 of the series runs for 13 episodes and catalogs from the very beginning of the series in which the young Izuku Midoriya meets the number one hero All Might, and soon becomes his successor. Inheriting his quirk, One For All, Midoriya then enrolls in a special hero school and soon comes across all sorts of challenges against villains and various threats of the world.

Now is the perfect time to start the anime series as My Hero Academia will be returning for its fourth season later this October. It's one of the most anticipated returns of the year. Season 3 left the series on quite a few cliffhangers, so fans will be there day one to see what comes next. The series will be releasing its second big movie later this year as well.

My Hero Academia was created by Kohei Horikoshi and has been running in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump since July 2014. The story follows Izuku Midoriya, who lives in a world where everyone has powers, even though he was born without them. Dreaming to become a superhero anyway, he's eventually scouted by the world's best hero All Might and enrolls in a school for professional heroes. The series has been licensed by Viz Media for an English language release since 2015.
