The world is fairly chaotic because of the rise of super villains and a new profession emerges – Pro Heroes, extremely strong individuals with the most powerful Quirks who protect the cities and their citizens.
While idolizing the Pro Heroes, Izuku sets his mind on becoming a Pro Hero despite having no Quirk.
