2See it at AmazonThe Vigilantes spin-off manga, crafted by Hideyuki Furuhashi with art by Betten Court, is set five years before the events of Deku's story. The anime adaptation is brought to life by Bones Studio, and IGN's review of the premiere episode praises it as "a worthy spin-off of the popular superhero anime." Here's the official synopsis of the new anime:

Koichi Haimawari, a seemingly unremarkable college student with dreams of becoming a hero, has resigned himself to a mundane life. In a world where 80% of the population possesses superhuman abilities known as Quirks, only a select few are chosen to become heroes. Koichi's life takes a dramatic turn when he and Pop☆Step are rescued by the vigilante Knuckleduster, leading them to embrace the life of vigilantes themselves!
