In a world where most of the population is gifted with special powers known as "Quirks", Izuku Midoriya is a young boy who always dreamed of becoming a hero, despite not having a Quirk himself, until one day he is attacked by a villain made of sludge and is rescued by none other than All Might, the best hero in the world and his idol since childhood. After seeing Izuku is safe, All Might starts leaving with the villain in his custody, but Izuku grabs onto his leg and ends up flying with him. Aft

Izuku discovers that All Might's true form is that of a frail, emaciated man who suffered a massive respiratory injury 5 years ago, preventing him from using his powers for longer than 3 hours a day. All Might tells Izuku that he should give up on being a hero and focus on a more realistic dream. Disheartened, Izuku makes his way home, only to see his classmate and bully Katsuki Bakugo attacked by the same sludge villain that All Might captured, who escaped when Izuku latched onto All Might.

All Might tells Izuku of his Quirk, "One For All", a sacred torch that transfers its strength from person to person, increasing its strength each time it is passed. While All Might believes Izuku to be worthy of his Quirk, bestowing it to him right away would ruin his untrained body. All Might then designs a ten-month training regimen to ensure that Izuku can become a vessel that can carry it.

He manages to use One For All to unleash a powerful punch that instantly destroys the giant machine, but the sheer power of the attack also breaks his arm in the process. One week later, Izuku recei

Izuku begins his first day at U.A as a member of Class 1-A along with Bakugo and Ochaco. The homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa, holds a physical test to evaluate how the students use their Quirks, threatening to expel the worst ranked student.

He throws his pitch, and at the last second, he concentrates One For All through his fingertips. The explosive throw

The Quirk Apprehension Test ends with Izuku ranked last, However, Aizawa reveals the expulsion rule was a ruse to bring out the best in the class, much to the students' shock. The next day, Class 1-A undergoes their Hero Basic Training class where All Might is the teacher. Now donning their own hero costumes, the students are assigned to a mock battle between teams of two to test their combat abilities.

A flashback shows that "Deku" and "Kacchan" grew up in the same neighborhood and have known each other since they were little kids. Bakugo was always surrounded by praise for his innately powerful explosion Quirk, causing him to always feel superior to everyone around him. However Izuku still never treated Bakugo like he was better, and even tried to help him after he fell into a river. Bakugo only took this as an insult, like Izuku, despite being Quirkless, was looking down on him. That same an

As Izuku is taken to the nurse's office to heal, Bakugo watches the rest of his classmates battles and becomes intimidated by how strong some of his peers Quirks are. After recovering from his injuries, Izuku attempts to cheer him up, to the point of sharing parts of his secret with Bakugo. However, Bakugo refuses to believe him and responds by admitting defeat.
