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

Koichi Haimawari is a seemingly ordinary college student with dreams of heroism that he has reluctantly set aside. In a world where 80% of the population possesses superhuman abilities known as Quirks, only a select few are chosen to become heroes. Koichi's life takes a dramatic turn when he and Pop☆Step are rescued by the vigilante Knuckleduster, who recruits them to join his cause.
