The official Twitter account of the Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia) manga posted an image of the cover of the series' Jump Supporter Book, which will be released on November 4, revealing that a TV anime adaptation has been confirmed. That tweet has since been deleted.
The manga series is drawn by Kouhei Horikoshi and has been serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump since July 2014. There are five volumes of the manga in print, with a sixth scheduled to also go on sale on November 4.
The first three volumes of the series respectively placed 100th, 74th, and 92nd in Japan's yearly manga rankings for the first half of 2015. VIZ Media is publishing the series in English with the second volume scheduled for release on November 3. The first English volume remained on The New York Times best seller list for four consecutive weeks.
Last week, it was revealed that Toho Ad, the advertising subsidiary of Toho Group, had registered the web domain heroaca.com. The site is not yet active.
Synopsis
People are not born equal, a realization that 4-year-old Midoriya Izuku faced when bullied by his classmates who had unique special powers. Izuku was one of the rare cases where he was born with absolutely no unique powers. This did not stop Izuku from pursuing his dream, a dream of becoming a great hero like the legendary All-Might. To become the great hero he hopelessly wants to become, he now will join the ranks of one of the highest rated "Hero Academies" in the country: Yueiko. With the help of his idol All-Might, will he be able to claim the ranks and become a true hero? (Source: MangaHelpers)
