Today's pick in the Daily Anime Pick-Series where I pick one anime each day that I think is worth watching is Boku no Hero Academia!

---

This anime is a shounen with near perfect execution. It is about a world where superpowers emerged causing villains and heroes to rise. For the latter there are academies that train students to become heroes. The protagonist is Izuku Midoriya who strongly wants to become a hero but doesn't have any superpowers.

The anime features interesting characters with great character development. It grabs your attention from the beginning and before you know it you'll be through the first 13 episodes. It has everything you would expect from a shounen and it's done really well. If you were looking for a new shounen to watch then give this a try.

Description

The appearance of "quirks," newly discovered super powers, has been steadily increasing over the years, with 80 percent of humanity possessing various abilities from manipulation of elements to shapeshifting. This leaves the remainder of the world completely powerless, and Izuku Midoriya is one such individual.

Since he was a child, the ambitious middle schooler has wanted nothing more than to be a hero. Izuku's unfair fate leaves him admiring heroes and taking notes on them whenever he can. But it seems that his persistence has borne some fruit: Izuku meets the number one hero and his personal idol, All Might. All Might's quirk is a unique ability that can be inherited, and he has chosen Izuku to be his successor!

Enduring many months of grueling training, Izuku enrolls in UA High, a prestigious high school famous for its excellent hero training program, and this year's freshmen look especially promising. With his bizarre but talented classmates and the looming threat of a villainous organization, Izuku will soon learn what it really means to be a hero.
