Ultimate Guide to the Pro Hero Rankings in My Hero Academia

A mysterious phenomenon triggers the manifestation of supernatural abilities called Quirks in increasingly large numbers until society is flooded with superhumans in My Hero Academia. Quirks appear in people from all walks of life, but some are more powerful than others. The unusual abilities give rise to more crime than ever before, but it also creates an opportunity to employ Quirks against corrupt forces to maintain a safe world.
In Japan, an organization called the Hero Public Safety Commission creates a Professional Hero system with standards and regulations designed to safely coordinate strong heroes to help the Police Force resolve crimes. The creation of Hero Academies helps the commission recruit the next generation of hero talent to become licensed Pro Heroes by pairing with Hero Agencies to meet rigorous requirements. Pro Heroes have become a significant element of Japanese culture, and the most influential of them all are the top ten heroes on the nation’s Hero Billboard Chart.
In the world of My Hero Academia, humans with supernatural abilities called Quirks begin to appear a few generations before protagonist Izuku Midoriya’s story begins. People are born having special powers with increasing frequency until it becomes more common to be born with a Quirk than without one like Japan’s Midoriya. However, the widespread manifestation of Quirks means that superhuman power falls into the hands of both good and evil people over time.
