The world we live in is a far cry from the one that people knew a long time ago. The first incident took place without any warning; a baby was born to an ordinary couple that shined without explanation. Since that time people have developed strange powers all around the globe. Known as "quirks", it's now more uncommon for people to be born without these strange abilities than to be born with them.
With these powers, it was only natural that hundreds of thousands of criminals rose up hoping to use their abilities for their own gain. But as soon as there were people who wanted to cause chaos and harm, there was a massive surge of those who just wanted everyone to be safe, and to protect the people they cared for. These people became known simply as heroes.
Seemingly every hero has some amazing quirks that allows them to help people, rescuing them from treacherous disasters or stopping powerful villains who would kill without a second thought. But not everyone is so lucky.
My name is Hikari Chisaikara. And this is the story of how I went from a reject wannabe to a full-fledged hero!
