My Hero Academia Manga Volume 1

I picked this up because superheroes, and it certainly does not fail to impress. The art, while sometimes not the most detailed, is very great for expression and also allows for kinetic scenes in combat or other action-y segments. And when the art does dip into a more detailed or atypical art style, it's a strong sign that things are probably about to get either serious, awesome, or seriously awesome. While the plot isn't revolutionary (kid wants to be a hero, runs into famous idol, becomes mentored by said idol), its the world that the series is starting to reveal and hint at (heroes as a profession, mass empowerment, etc) and the details that really make this stand out.

It's rare to see a superhero story that's well executed. It's even rarer to see one tackle the same themes as My Hero Academia. On top of being a fantastical story about Deku and his road to becoming a hero, you get many different perspectives on what it means to be a hero. Beyond that, you see questions posited like "what is 'good'?" and "what is the 'correct' action?"

At its core, it is a shounen series that keeps many of the classical shounen tropes, but it puts a spin on some of them in interesting ways; a protagonist who is rarely the strongest, a rival who seems more like an antagonist, and a best girl who seems barely human.

I really love My Hero Academia and the first volume gets the whole experience off to a good start. Definitely a must-have in any fan's collection.

Academia definitely starts off strong- the story of a kid who wants nothing more than to become a hero and save the world, works hard at it every day/ worships and studies heroes endlessly, even though he's powerless, frequently bullied, and written off by everyone who meets him. That is, until he shows his mettle and impresses the greatest hero on the planet- All Might.

This volume is probably the strongest of the series available so far, if just for the emotional heft it delivers and the interesting world it sets up. The next few volumes are a bit more standard-shounen fair, but they are executed so well and are just so cool that they still come off as incredibly fun. Looking forward to more releases, and seeing where the story will go.

I'm in love with My Hero Academia, and I'm really happy my copy was perfect when it arrived home. I'll waste no time and start reading it right away! Don't miss it!

I've have all the volumes that are currently out in english because I couldn't wait for the next episode of the anime installment and I have to say the manga is a lot better a lot, I mean the art is just amazing, and the fact that the author talks about the characters and how there are character designs just makes it feel like I know the author a little more than I did before knowing nothing about them! I absolutely loved it! I'm going to buy the rest of the volumes when they're released and I'll buy them here because this is where I buy all my manga and anime stuff!

I honestly enjoy reading MHA and following Deku's adventure to being a superhero! He's born with no quirk (superpower) but he dreams of attending UA Academy and following the steps of his idol superhero, All Might. Deku meets All Might and finds out about All Might's secret: he's limited to his superhero form and needs to find a successor to his quirk: One for All! This strength superpower gets passed down throughout the ages!!!

Deku proves himself to be courageous and full of superhero qualities in this volume, with or without any quirks.

It's a definite read for anyone who comes from a Marvel/DC comics background and want to try some manga! All Might is drawn as a Golden Age hero, which is kinda hilarious in contrast to the typical shonen manga style.

My Hero Academia is a very simple manga. Everyone has super powers , but our main protagonist Izuku. It builds up this entire super hero society just by looking at the back of the book. All the super hero endorsements are hilarious. It also shows that having ultimate or even unlimited power makes you fit to be a hero. It truly shows that the basic human trait of helping someone in need is all that it takes. It's the type of manga that makes you feel not only inspired , but in better terms just feel good. It's something that i'd recommend to anyone regardless of age or preference.

I love this series and was so happy to buy this manga. Great price for a newer series compared to other buying websites. It came in perfect condition and was earlier than expected. I read it right away.

My Hero Academia is one of the greatest shonen manga of this decade - fun characters, plot, and unique art! The order also came in many days early and were nicely packaged and arrived safe.

I started watching the series and quickly fell in love with the amazing story, characters, music, and animation!
Eventually I couldn't wait any loner and had to start reading the manga, and trust me it wont disappoint you! (Especially for amazing prices that right stuff gives)

I started watching the anime to this series and just recently started the manga and it is amazing even after knowing the outcome of the events i just cant stop turning those pages. this is by far my favorite series.

This is only the first volume of a world full enormous battles, tear-jerking moments, and inspirational characters. If you're having second thoughts about buying this volume then stop right now and just buy it! I've been waiting for the next shounen manga on par with naruto, bleach, etc. and this is definitely the one!

One of my favorite manga/anime so far. I am sure this is not needed but I recommend this to anyone. Plus Ultra!

This first step into the world of My Hero Academia, does a great job of explaining the environment the main cast of characters are in. A true shonen manga, that most will enjoy! It's like X-men but more inspired quirks instead of mutations!
