My Hero Academia: World Tree

Heroes are supposed to save people because it's their dream.

Rika Kanzaki never had that luxury.

As the eldest daughter of a working class parents, responsibility became a part of her life long before she understood what childhood was. Raising her younger sibling, managing the house, and always putting others before herself taught her one thing:

Dreams can wait. Responsibilities can't.

Blessed with the rare healing Quirk World Tree's Embrace, Rei entered U.A. High School to fulfill the dream her family believed she was born for-not because she wanted to become a hero.

Now a respected second-year student and assistant to Recovery Girl, she's admired across campus for her beauty, professionalism, and unmatched healing abilities. Behind that perfect image, however, is a sarcastic girl who would rather sleep, drink overpriced milk tea, and become rich enough to never worry about responsibilities again.

Everything changes when a quiet first-year named Shoto Todoroki begins showing up at the infirmary far more often than necessary.

As villain attacks grow more dangerous and the burden of being a hero becomes heavier, Rei must decide whether she'll continue living for everyone else's dreams...

...or finally find the courage to choose her own.

Because even the strongest tree cannot keep standing if it never learns to grow for itself.
