My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, Vol. 1 by Hideyuki Furuhashi, Kōhei Horikoshi

adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

2.0

The fans of the original manga series are probably the target audience, whereas I watched the anime mostly for the sake of finishing it. I was intrigued by the idea of a superhero society, though, and I started reading Vigilantes in the hopes that this series would take a different approach to it. Unfortunately nothing much happened in the first volume, so it’s hard to say if that will be the case. The main characters, esp. the unsurprisingly oversexualized teenage female lead, seem somewhat average and boring, but them being non-OP vigilantes is promising. My hopes are pretty low but I'm still willing to give vol. 2 a shot.
