© H. Furuhashi, BETTEN. C, K. Horikoshi/SHUEISHA, Vigilante ProjectMy Hero Academia: Vigilantes is based on the Shueisha-published manga illustrated by Betten Court and authored by Hideyuki Furuhashi. Viz Media outlines the manga’s storyline as follows:
Koichi Haimawari couldn’t achieve his dream of becoming an official hero, so he utilizes his modest Quirk to perform good deeds in his free time. A destined encounter with local thugs pushes him to join forces with two other unlikely heroes. Although they lack experience, they possess the courage—or perhaps the recklessness—to give it a shot. However, they quickly learn that combating evil requires more than just bravery…
The manga first appeared in 2016 and wrapped up in 2022, with a brief one-shot return in April 2025. The series has been compiled into 15 volumes.
