The anime adaptation is brought to life by Bones Studio, and IGN's review of the first episode praised it as "a worthy spin-off of the popular superhero anime." Here’s the official synopsis of the new anime:

Koichi Haimawari is a seemingly ordinary college student who dreams of becoming a hero but has resigned himself to a mundane life. In a world where 80% of the population possesses superhuman powers known as Quirks, only a select few are chosen to become professional heroes. Koichi's life takes a dramatic turn when he and Pop☆Step are rescued by the vigilante Knuckleduster, who recruits them into the world of vigilantism!
