The story follows three vigilantes — Koichi Haimawairi/The Crawler, Kazuho Haneyama/Pop☆Step, and Oguro Iwao/Knuckleduster — who help others despite not being licensed heroes. WHen Haimawairi and Haneyama are attacked by a groupof street thugs, the strong vigilante Knuckleduster saves the and recruits them to fight for justice alongside him. 

The synopsis reads:

Koichi Haimawari is a dull college student who aspires to be a hero but has given up on his dream. Although 80% of the world’s population has superhuman powers called Quirks, few are chosen to become heroes and protect people. Everything changes for Koichi when he and Pop☆Step are saved by the vigilante Knuckleduster and get recruited to become vigilantes themselves!

My Hero Academia: Vigilantes is directed by Kenichi Suzuki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure chief director) at BONES FILM. Series composition is by Yosuke Kuroda (My Hero Academia) with character designs by Takahiko Yoshida (Cells at Work!) and music by Yuki Hayashi, Shogo Yamashira and Yuki Furuhashi.

The new anime series arrives as fans eagerly await the finale season of My Hero Academia, which is scheduled to premiere this October. My Hero Academia: Final Season will bring the long-running superhero anime series to an end. The manga came ended on August 4, 2024, after a decade-long run.
