The Vigilantes spin-off manga, crafted by Hideyuki Furuhashi with art by Betten Court, is set five years prior to the events of Deku's journey. Bones Studio, known for their work on the original series, is behind the anime adaptation, which has been praised by IGN as "a worthy spin-off of the popular superhero anime." Here’s the official synopsis of the new anime:
Koichi Haimawari, an unassuming college student with dreams of heroism, finds his life transformed when he and Pop☆Step are rescued by the vigilante Knuckleduster. This encounter leads them to join forces and fight crime as vigilantes, despite only a small percentage of Quirk users being officially recognized as heroes.
