Synopsis:
The aspiring heroes of My Hero Academia team up with pro heroes for action-packed missions!
To prepare the next generation of heroes for real-world hero work, the ambitious Team-Up Missions Program pairs groups of students with pro heroes to go on action-packed missions where they will learn to use teamwork to defeat villains. Although Izuku Midoriya and his U.A. High friends are thrilled to participate, there’s just one catch—there’s no telling who will be teamed up with whom! From top heroes to students from other classes and schools, anyone could be on the same team.
Midoriya is excited for his first team-up mission until he learns that his team includes Bakugo. Training alongside his explosive classmate would be hard enough, but the pro hero they’ve been matched with is also a real wild card. Can this makeshift team cooperate, or will Midoriya’s first mission be his last?

This was my first time properly reading a manga, and i must say it was a fun experience! Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review. I've only watched the anime for My Hero Academia, and it's one of my favourite anime which was why I was interested to read this spin off series by Yoko Akiyama. Team-Up missions basically features several mini missions that some of the main characters from the series (students in training to be pro heroes) go on while getting teamed up with pro heroes. I would say it's a very light and fun read because the missions are really quick and easy. Even though some of them were even silly missions, i found myself giggling here and there and going "awwww!" because it was quite wholesome! It was also refreshing to read this because the anime (and maybe even the original manga but I can't say for sure because I haven't read them) doesn't have very many "filler" episodes where all side characters get fleshed out. It was nice to get to see some of the side characters you don't see much in the anime, being in action in this. I'm not sure if someone who hasn't read or watched any My Hero Academia would enjoy Team-Up Missions, because they might get overwhelmed by all the characters being introduced. But it's definitely great for those who already love the series and want to have more of it. Also i must say, I'm really warming up towards reading manga! |
