If this feels reminiscent of the popular anime series My Hero Academia, which begins with a young boy named Izuku Midoriya who also doesn’t have superpowers in a world where nearly everyone else has them, well… yeah. But the similarities with Extraordinary clearly stop there. Here’s the official synopsis: “Meet Jen. She lives in a world where everyone has a superpower. Everyone except her. Which is just sodding great. Extraordinary is somewhere between a sitcom and an existential crisis: an eye-popping, shocking, hilarious, and bittersweet comedy about finding your way in the world, when all you’ll ever be is ‘ordinary’.”
