If you are not caught up with the My Hero Academia manga, no sweat! You can read the series easily enough on the Shonen Jump app as new chapters drop weekly. So for more info on the series, you can read the official synopsis of My Hero Academia below:
“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.”
