My Hero Academia, Vol. 1: Izuku Midoriya: Origin: Volume 1

Manga books seem to be the 'book of choice' for young teenagers. My daughter has enjoyed watching the Anime series and started the School Briefs 1-5 books for reading sessions. School Briefs are not manga (comic style) books but are novels which give a little bit more depth to the characters. She has finished School Briefs and has now decided to read these manga books. She enjoys them and actively asks for the next copy when finished, so they must be a good enough read for a 12 year old. For parents who are like me and not so clued up, the Manga series are not so suitable for English reading classes and a teenager will likely get through this in a night - for my daughter, this is more of a collection item. The quick read of these means it's not going to be cheap. A single book cost me £7, I have been buying 2 per week and have now told my daughter that we will need to find a more cost effective way of reading. A longer novel for school and these manga books purely for home. If you are buying this on behalf of your child, make sure you are buying the correct book, as there are so many. Also bare in mind, the binding on Japanese books are opposite to our western style. Books are printed right to left. The plot, she says, is very good and has had her gripped. The art work deserves absolute praise and allows the story flows well. Overall, I would rate these as a 5 star for the entertainment it provides. These are collectable and that also makes them desirable.

Greattttt quality

Fab thanks

amazing my daughter loved it so much she read it within a week !!! definitely purchasing the next one !!!

I really didn't know what to expect from this manga, I decided to give it go anyway. At first I thought of it as another hero story, almost like an imitation of DC or Marvel comics. However the characters, the art and especially the story sucked me into reading it non-stop until I finished the first volume. The art is another aspect that is worth mentioning if not one the main reasons to try this manga. It is not your usual cold, lifeless manga art that shows apathy and disdain for human features. The author does an excellent job at expressing strong emotions through the eyes of the characters which honestly looks damn good!

I got this cuz i never got to watch the anime and i loove the series now such a great manga its a lil short but still amazing

My Hero Academia seems to be quite popular overseas, so it caught my interest. It tells the story of a boy who has been sneered at and snickered at for dreaming of becoming a hero, even though he was born without any quirks. I thought it was ingenious to translate 個性 as “quirks.”

Fast delivery. Arrived in perfect condition.
