In _Boku no Hero Academia_ , we know the world is not limited to only Japan;
there are America and other countries as stated especially in the _BNHA: Two
Heroes_ movie. But why are the known top 10 heroes (probably all the best
heroes) Japanese? Endeavor, Jeanist, Edgeshot, etc. are all from Japan, even
All Might (although he's been in the USA doing hero work).

Is there another top hero that is actually not Japanese or not from Japan? Or
is it just that Kohei Horikoshi makes Japan so much stronger in this series?

Why do the top 10 heroes in Boku no Hero Academia only come from Japan?


The Hero Billboard Chart that is usually mentioned in the manga is not the
world rankings. This should be obvious since only Japanese heroes are in there
and since it is named _Hero Billboard Chart JP_ in the manga. [![enter image

To quote from the
[wiki](https://bokunoheroacademia.fandom.com/wiki/Hero_Billboard_Chart_JP),

> The Hero Billboard Chart JP is an event that presents the official rankings
> of **Japanese Pro Heroes**.

If I have to guess, no top heroes from other nations are mentioned since
mentioning them would not be relevant to the story as it is for now.
