My Hero Academia, Vol. 14 (My Hero Academia, #14)

by Kohei Horikoshi

Midoriya inherits the superpower of the world’s greatest hero, but greatness won’t come easy.

What would the world be like if 80 percent of the population manifested superpowers called “Quirks”? Heroes and villains would be battling it out everywhere! Being a hero would mean learning to use your power, but where would you go to study? The Hero Academy of course! But what would you do if you were one of the 20 percent who were born Quirkless?

Summer vacation is over, and it’s back to school for the students of U.A. High! But before classes can get started, Midoriya and Bakugo need to settle a beef between them that’s been a long time coming. Even if they can get past this bump in the road on the way to becoming superheroes, the hurdles will just keep getting higher and higher—the hero work studies in the upcoming year will bring them even closer to their goal…or their destruction!

So this volume is a bit interesting, in that some of it has been shown in the anime, while a lot of it is actually new material. I'm surprised that there was a clear line between these two, but it is what it is.
This volume was great. We got to learn more about All Might, and I love the idea of the students doing more internships. I think it's important for them if they want to keep improving - though I can see why it is a point of contention between the instructors.
I was intrigued by Deku's choice (not surprised by his first choice, but his second choice is the one I'm referring to here). I'm curious to know more about this character, and how he handles things. Already we learned quite a lot about him, such as his quirk and general behavior.
