▍About My Hero Academia OVA
This two-episode series will feature episodes that center on baseball-loving pro heroes who form the Hero League Baseball (or HLB for short). In the first episode, a match between the Orcas and the Lionels are both vying for the top.
Both teams are determined to win, and so they call upon the students at U.A. for support. All players are allowed to use their Quirks in the upcoming game. In the key visual, we can see Kirishima, Kaminari, Jiro, as well as many other pro heroes that have appeared in the series, with an All-Might ball in the middle of the poster.
