What’s Next for My Hero Academia: Vigilantes?
My Hero Academia: Vigilantes has just kicked off its run of new episodes airing through the rest of the Spring 2025 anime schedule, and that means things are only getting started for Koichi Haimawari and the others. Koichi was introduced to the series as a much different kind of person compared to Izuku Midoriya. Not only does he have a quirk (as unremarkable as it his), but he really didn’t have any grand dreams of becoming a hero. He’s an adult who’s in college, but is more concerned with just having a good school life. That is until he runs into Knuckle Duster.
The first episode saw him don his favorite All Might hoodie to become a neighborhood helper who assists people with directions and garbage, but it’s soon enough that Pop Step gets grabbed by a group of criminals. Koichi hesitates to help her at first, but soon Knuckle Duster appears and saves them both. Now that he’s caught Knuckle Duster’s attention, Koichi is about to become a fully fledged vigilante in his own right as he now is going to investigate a mysterious drug that’s now illegally boosting quirks.

Everything changes for Koichi when he and Pop☆Step are saved by the vigilante Knuckleduster and get recruited to become vigilantes themselves!”
