While the hero premise of One-Punch Man takes a different route, it's a smashing tale regardless. If you're up for a no holds barred, tale of villainy and valor, My Hero Academia and One-Punch Man fit the bill.

Both are super hero concept.In boku no hero academia Midoriya(protoganist) has no quirk (super power) and borrow super power from No 1 hero and tains to contol and use them effectively.
In One punch man as it name iplies saitama (protoganist) train and work hard result in any villian can be destroyed by one punch.

This manga is top quality and I read it around the same time that I read one punch man and I thought they went well together and I would say it is appropriate for 10+

Both of these series feature a world where superpowered heroes are the norm. The protagonist in each wants desperately to become a hero to be like his idol, but has no abilities. The protagonists do soon get abilities through unconventional methods and go from being the weakest to being among the strongest. Each story also has the protagonist's new powers have a special relationship to their idols.

Both involve superheroes with the mc being seen as weak in the beginning. And they are both given a power so that they could match up to the others. In boku no hero academia, he's given a superpower so he can train to be a hero, while in ratman, he's given a suit that gives him powers so that he becomes a supervillain

Both Hitman Reborn and Boku no hero academia are a shounen about a boy who starts with nothing and receives great power. If you loved the fact that there were many characters to be loved in Hitman Reborn you'd love how many characters you'll be able to love in boku no hero academia.

Though the genres are entirely different, both feature similar protagonists, and similarly shadowy enemy organizations.

Both main characters start from being a zero and work to become a hero, with a little extra help from third parts. BnHA has superheroes, BC has sorcerers. Have fun with WSJ action.
