This spin-off manga by Hideyuki Furuhashi (writer) and Betten Court (artist) takes place five years before Deku's journey begins. Produced by Bones Studio, IGN praised the anime adaptation as "a worthy expansion of the superhero universe." The official synopsis:
Koichi Haimawari, an unremarkable college student who abandoned his hero aspirations, gets a second chance when vigilante Knuckleduster rescues him and Pop☆Step. Despite living in a world where 80% possess Quirks, few achieve hero status. Their encounter propels Koichi into vigilante life alongside his unlikely allies.
