Synopsis – My Hero Academia: Vigilantes

Being a hero is a real job. There are rules to be respected, and not everyone is officially accredited.

Yet, some decide to play out of bounds and fight for justice... without any qualifications! They are called vigilantes and, in the eyes of the law, they are no better than villains!

We follow the adventures of Koichi, a young student who is a fan of All Might, who uses his power to slide to help those around him but also for his activities are illegal.

Her sense of justice leads her to form an unlikely team with a big burly brawl and a young singer hungry for glory... Between the three of them, they set out to attack a drug trade with destructive effects.

But where heroes act in accordance with the law, for vigilantes, there is only one motto: the end justifies the means!
