Manga
Before All Might’s boisterous voice was heard, it was on paper where this legend originated. Debuting in 2014 in the Weekly Shonen Jump by Kohei Horikoshi, the series was completed in 2024.
Through the story of My Hero Academia, Horikoshi introduced us to an individual who rose above all heroes to become a symbol. A man whose smile was enough to bring fear itself to its knees, brought to life through his heartfelt storytelling and bold ink. It was in the manga that Toshinori Yagi’s story originally unfolded to inspire readers around the world with his courage, passion and determination.
Across 42 volumes, the story of Izuku Midoriya and how he became the world’s greatest hero is unveiled, yet without All Might, the story as we know it would have never begun. His journey, evolving from the Symbol of Peace to a mentor of heroes, is the emotional spine that ties this series together.
