Hero Offices, also called Hero Agencies, are the firms that employ Japan's professional heroes. They double as bases of operations, usually take their styling from whichever hero owns them, and serve as the main route through which students pick up real field experience.
A Hero Office, equally known as a Hero Agency, is simply a firm that puts heroes on its payroll. The concept enters the manga in Chapter 12 by way of Ingenium's office, Team Idaten, and reaches the anime in Episode 27 with the Genius Office.
Most professionals work out of one, and the office typically doubles as the base from which its owner operates. Decor and branding tend to follow that hero's personal theme.
Staffing generally consists of Sidekicks employed by the hero who owns the place. Agencies also take on pupils from hero courses through internships, the intent being hands-on experience that a classroom cannot supply.
A student's standing changes once a Provisional Hero License is in hand. From that point they may engage in genuine hero work on the front line, and they are handled as sidekicks in their own right.
Prominent agencies seen in the series include the Endeavor Agency, the Fat Gum Agency, the Fourth Kind Agency, the Genius Office, Hawks' Agency, Might Tower, Mt. Agency, the Nighteye Agency, the Purple Revolution Agency, the Pussycats Agency, the Ryukyu Agency, the Captain Celebrity Corporation HQ, and Team Idaten. Also shown are the Naniwa Hero Office, the personal offices belonging to Earphone Jack and Chargebolt, and the hero office on Nabu Island.
Further agencies are named only in passing: the iPhome Hero Agency, the Morning Crow Hero Agency, Woman Jenny OFFICE, the Uwanga Agency, the Kardog Hero Agency, the Molotov Hero Office, the Kakangan Office, the Karu-Eru Hero Agency, the Springer Hero Office, and Uwabami Production.

In My Hero Academia, a hero's workplace is called a Hero Office or Hero Agency, a firm that employs professional heroes and typically doubles as their base of operations.
A Hero Office is usually staffed by Sidekicks employed by the hero who owns it, along with student interns and Hero Work-Study trainees gaining hands-on field experience.
Once a student earns a Provisional Hero License, they can engage in real hero work on the front line and are treated as sidekicks in their own right at the Hero Office where they train.
Notable Hero Offices in My Hero Academia include the Endeavor Agency, the Fat Gum Agency, the Genius Office, Hawks' Agency, the Nighteye Agency, the Pussycats Agency, and the Ryukyu Agency, among others.
The Hero Office concept enters the manga in Chapter 12 through Ingenium's office, Team Idaten, and reaches the anime in Episode 27 with the Genius Office.
