As My Hero Academia streaks toward its fourth season this fall, a spin-off series has been released to placate the excitement of UA Academy fans worldwide. Following the female students of UA Academy, My Heroine Academia decides to shine a light on the character of Momo Yaoyorozu, aka Creati. There are many unique aspects of Creati that separate her from her classmates but one of the biggest is her insane amount of wealth, which is what the latest manga entry examines.
Twitter User Aitaikimochi broke down the events that take place in the manga which will be made readily available to readers in the magazine, Giga 2019 Summer Volume 1:

The new “My Heroine Academia” spin-off by Akiyama-sensei is about Yaoyorozu and the girls freaking out about her wealth LOL. She offers tea to them and when asked how much the tea is, she says it’s 50,000yen for the blend. Ochako goes “there’s 50,000yen sitting in my stomach.” pic.twitter.com/FMQSERLoZ3

Momo’s quirk is that of “creation” which allows her to use her fat cells to create any inanimate object she can think of, as long as she knows the structure and how it works. Like most quirks, this power comes with a downside in that Creati’s creations vastly eat away at her fat cells, meaning she has to constantly eat a ton of calories in order to continue making items to use in the field. Since these items emerge from her skin, she has to wear a particularly revealing costume to have access to her own skin.
The manga spin-off in general finds the other students of UA Academy mostly reacting to Momo’s insane wealth which comes from her prestigious family. Her acceptance into the academy in fact comes primarily from her family’s influence and its been a sticking point for Creati that she proves herself and manages to overcome her feelings of inadequacy. While played to humorous effect, Momo mostly doesn’t even give a second thought to her wealth, putting her heart and mind into her hero work with the school.
