Shields of Legacy

Iris Valentin has never believed saving lives should wait for permission.

Known online as the vigilante Spectra, Iris has spent years protecting civilians with her powerful shield Quirk, often stepping into danger before licensed heroes arrive. But Japan's hero system is strict, and if she wants to continue protecting people, she'll have to do it the right way: by becoming a hero.

Now accepted into U.A. High School, the world's most prestigious hero academy, Iris must prove she belongs among Japan's best young heroes while navigating a system she isn't sure she believes in.
