Even if video games are out of the equation, there’s no reason why you and the person you want to gift can’t enjoy a My Hero Academia-themed game. With this special edition Monopoly, game nights will never be the same. Whether with family or friends, this game can be played by two to six people and is suitable for fans of various ages.

Everything about the game is customized — from the board to the cards, and even the money — featuring all of Class 1-A’s students, as well as some Pro Heroes and beloved villains.

There are five types of hoodies, all in the color black, but each one featuring a different character — Deku, All Might, Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, and Ochacho Uraraka. The hoodies are the most expensive items in this collection, at $75 each. As for tees, there are six models available, and most are currently priced at $35, with the exception of one, which is at $38 and is mostly teal, unlike its black counterparts. All clothing items’ sizes range from S to 3XL, and can be purchased exclusively through TSM’s website.

Any My Hero Academia fan can appreciate a good villain. Sometimes, villains can be even more interesting and complex characters than goody-two-shoes heroes, and Dabi is certainly one of them. So why not step out of the mold and go with an action figure of this fan-favorite antagonist?

This particular figure portrays Dabi using his fire Quirk in battle with a menacing smile, and it stands at around 5.12 inches. This collection also has other My Hero Academia villain figures available, like Shigaraki and Himiko Toga, to choose from. Depending on the figure, the size may vary, but they all come with a random trading card as a bonus. The princes range from $15 to $46.

My Hero Academia Funko POP!

We all know Funko POP!, and we all love it. These vinyl figures are a staple in every fan’s merchandise collection, being widespread in fandoms. You can find almost any character from the series in POP! form, but if you’re not sure which one would be the right choice to gift the My Hero Academia fan in your life, there’s no way you can go wrong with this one.

This figure depicts Deku in the epic fight to save Eri, with One for All flowing throughout his body. Featuring Eri on the protagonist’s back, this figure is around 4.75-inches tall, and is loved by its unique colors that aren’t easily found in other My Hero Academia POP! The cherry on top? You can get your hands on the special edition that glows in the dark — how fun is that?

So you have a little more money to spend and want to blow your friend’s mind? For any manga aficionado, this gift is sure to make their entire year. With a box set, you can gift a My Hero Academia fan 20 manga volumes, which is a lot – considering the series currently has a total of 36 volumes. The set also includes two bonuses: a double-sided poster and a 48-page illustration book with commentary from the mangaka himself.

If this person fell in love with the series only by watching the anime but has been wanting to dive into the manga, this is a perfect gift to give them a little push. On the other hand, if they have already read the manga online — but love a good collection — this box set would make their dream come true anyway. After all, nothing beats having the real thing in your hands and being able to proudly display your collection.

For cold days, nothing is better than cozy items to keep us warm. So how about gifting your hero-enthusiast their very own U.A.-themed Winter hat and scarf? Not only would this make a cool gift but also a very useful one, especially for someone who doesn’t like the cold.

The items are in the U.A. uniform’s signature colors — green and gray — and feature the school’s sigil in white. For an extra touch, U.A.’s mottos, “Plus Ultra” and “Go Beyond” are also displayed in the scarf. Despite this, the design is neutral enough that it goes under the radar of anyone unfamiliar with the series, which can be ideal for more low-key fans. Both pieces are made of acrylic yarn material, and according to reviewers, it’s fairly soft to the touch. To make your life simpler, the items are designed to fit people of various sizes, so you don’t have to worry about measurements. This set is priced at $45.82.

The item is 45×60 inches and made of polyester, which makes it lightweight, smooth-feeling, and warm during colder months. It’s a great item to have around when the temperature drops and anyone would be happy to have it gifted to them. Currently, this blanket’s price is $17.49, but similar products are usually sold at around $20-$30.

With all these gift options at your disposal, there’s no way to go wrong, so get to choosing.
