Goodreads Synopsis:
Midoriya inherits the superpower of the world’s greatest hero, but greatness won’t come easy.
What would the world be like if 80 percent of the population manifested superpowers called “Quirks”? Heroes and villains would be battling it out everywhere! Being a hero would mean learning to use your power, but where would you go to study? The Hero Academy of course! But what would you do if you were one of the 20 percent who were born Quirkless?
Summer vacation is over, and it’s back to school for the students of U.A. High! But before classes can get started, Midoriya and Bakugo need to settle a beef between them that’s been a long time coming. Even if they can get past this bump in the road on the way to becoming superheroes, the hurdles just keep getting higher and higher—the hero work studies in the upcoming year will bring them even closer to their goal…or their destruction!

Review:
We finally get to see Deku and Bakugo fight. This whole series has
been leading up to this, honestly. It's a good fight, too, and I was
even a little surprised with the turnout of it. Thankfully, though,
All Might confronts them about it, and they get punished for
fighting.
School starts back up, and Deku and Bakugo are punished by being
grounded to the dorm. When they finally get to join class again, they
all get to meet the star third-years, who are supposedly there to
give them advice. They get a real-life demonstration, instead.
After all of that, and while in the background the villains are
scheming and thinking of working together for something bigger, Deku
is taking the opportunity to do a work study and running with it. He
wants to get better, and he wants to do it now, so he's doing
everything he can think of to do it. The guy he ends up trying to
work under is an interesting one, he seems straight-laced, but
actually thinks laughter is the most important thing. Deku's not
funny, but thankfully they're both obsessed fans of All Might.
It looks like the villains are going to make another big appearance
soon, and I'm intrigued to see what happens with this new one.
