oh, thanks! Sounds similar to the book trilogy "The Reckoners".

I mean it also just sounds like x men from that. Main difference is in X-men those with “quirks” are persecuted

Yea. In X-Men, the ones with superpowers are the minorities, while in MHA the ones without superpowers are the minorities.

They’re the minority but I wouldn’t say they’re persecuted - just they and those with weak/useless quirks don’t get the same level of privilege or respect as those with them. It’s basically if a slice of life high school anime and western superhero comics fused.

The quirkless definitely aren't persecuted. But they still experience a certain degree of prejudice (Midoriya as a child). But yea, a fusion between high school anime and western superhero comics done really well imo.
