Living in a superhero society is difficult. Even more so when the spotlights only shine on professional heroes, those legally authorized to use their special powers known as Quirks in public for the greater good.

Despite this, Kouichi is satisfied using his Quirk to carry out good daily actions, such as returning lost items and helping the elderly to cross the street.
However, Kouichi’s peaceful life turns to the turbulent when he is rescued from a fight in an alley by the watchman, or illegal hero, KnuckleDuster.

Set in a time before the events of the original story, Vigilante: Boku no Hero Academia Illegals follows Kouichi in his decision to assume the reputation of a villain and become a vigilante, operating in the shadow of the law to prevent crimes from going out Surface.
