Manga Review: My Hero Academia, Volume 22, by Kohei Horikoshi


Rating (Out of 5): ~4
Publisher: Shonen Jump (VIZ Media)
Release Date: December 2019
Volumes: 25+
Spoilers?: No.
Volume: 1. 21. 23.

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?

In the third match of the joint battle training, the students of Class 1-A have their hands full dealing with the unexpected creativity of Class B’s Quirk use. These matches give everyone a chance to reflect on exactly where they all stand in comparison to each other and on the events in their lives that have brought them to this point. Then it’s time for Bakugo to show what he’s learned…

Review:

This volume continues the current test. More groups face off, are tested and prove themselves and see how they need to improve more. And then it's Deku's turn.
Deku has already been fighting with his powers, he's had weird dreams featuring the previous heroes of One for All, and now he's against the mind-controller who started this mess for him. He knew it was risky, but he had to do what he could.
Deku's in a real predicament as this volume ends. I'm really intrigued to see what happens with his power next, what this means for him.
