My Hero Academia Volume 8 by Kohei Horikoshi
The freshmen students at U.A. continue their final exams. Since this is a manga (i.e., a Japanese graphic novel), naturally the focus is on the practical side of the exam. Students are paired up and have to handcuff or escape from a teacher, who acts as a villain in the practical test. The two students need to work together, coming up with a plan to use their skills in some complementary way. Who will pass the exam, thus getting to go to Hero Summer Camp, and who will fail, thus winding up in Hero Summer School? The story gets as far as the start of summer camp, with a slight detour into the actual villains' plans to take down the legendary hero All Might.
This is another fun issue. The story is moving at a good pace and the blend of comedy and action works quite well.
Recommended.
