Could you abandon your past, your family, even your own name for the chance to be a hero? Millions attempt to do just that by applying to East Technical Institute's hero program, trying to earn the right to use the powers they were born with. After all, only licensed heroes can use their powers freely; if they are not accepted into the program, those caught using their abilities- even to save themselves- are branded villains.
Kirin has, in his opinion, only barely managed to grab one of these spots. He's determined to make the most of the opportunity, doing his best to focus on the rigorous program itself. But, more and more, he's drawn to his most standoffish classmate, a man who knows more about the secretive school than he should.
When disaster strikes midway through his first school year, Kirin and his classmates are thrown into the conflict of hero versus villain, as well as human versus superhuman. Battling prejudice and his own past, Kirin must decide what being a hero is worth and what he's willing to sacrifice to become one. After all, in a world that treats most people with powers as monsters, it's not easy to see the line between victim and villain.
