57 free My Hero Academia trivia questions with answers. My Hero Academia trivia for fans who have read all 42 volumes and for anyone who just binged the anime. This quiz covers the whole of Kohei Horikoshi's world: how One For All passes from user to user, why Izuku reclaimed the name Deku, what makes Bakugo's palms explode, which classmate can only see her clothes, and the real name behind Tomura Shigaraki's severed hands. It also digs into the production side: the studio behind the anime, the opening theme of season one, how many chapters ran in Weekly Shonen Jump, and where the four films took Class 1-A, from I-Island to Otheon. Questions run from easy warm-ups about Quirks and hero names to genuinely hard ones about Horikoshi's earlier cancelled series and the first user of One For All. Every answer has been checked against Wikipedia and the primary sources it cites, and each explanation adds one more thing worth knowing.
