Bones to Animate 'Boku no Hero Academia,' Reveals Key Visual [Update 11/15]
The official anime website of Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia) has announced that the series will be animated by Bones (known for Fullmetal Alchemist and Noragami). A key visual was also revealed.

Kouhei Horikoshi's superhero manga, Boku no Hero Academia, has been serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump since July 2014. The manga currently has five compiled volumes in Japan, with the sixth being released tomorrow.

Synopsis
People are not born equal, a realization that 4-year-old Midoriya Izuku faced when bullied by his classmates who had unique special powers. Izuku was one of the rare cases where he was born with absolutely no unique powers. This did not stop Izuku from pursuing his dream, a dream of becoming a great hero like the legendary All-Might. To become the great hero he hopelessly wants to become, he now will join the ranks of one of the highest rated "Hero Academies" in the country: Yueiko. With the help of his idol All-Might, will he be able to claim the ranks and become a true hero?
