Of course, this series will be able to pair heroes together who fans rarely see interact in the main series. Izuku doesn't get the chance to team up with heroes like Aoyama for instance, but this upcoming spin-off will give the two a chance to mingle.
The series will be helmed by Yoko Akiyama, the creator of Saguri-chan Tankentai. Currently, Shueisha plans to put out the first installment of Team Up Mission in late July. The exact date will be July 25 as Team Up Mission will be housed in JUMP GIGA 2019's second summer volume. The spin-off will continue in August with the September issue of Saikyo Jump.

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. My Hero Academia is gearing up for an even bigger end of 2019 with a new film in theaters later this year too.
