2See it at Amazon

Set five years before the events of the main My Hero Academia series, Vigilantes follows the journey of Koichi Haimawari, a seemingly ordinary college student with dreams of heroism. Despite 80% of the population possessing superhuman abilities known as Quirks, Koichi's aspirations seem out of reach until he crosses paths with the vigilante Knuckleduster and Pop☆Step. This encounter propels him into the shadowy world of vigilantes, where he fights to protect society in his own way. The anime adaptation, brought to life by Bones Studio, has been praised as a compelling addition to the My Hero Academia saga, with IGN lauding the first episode as a "worthy spin-off of the popular superhero anime."
