Big Hero 6 (organization)

"We didn't set out to be superheroes. But sometimes life doesn't go the way you planned. The good thing is, my brother wanted to help a lot of people and that's what we're going to do. Who are we?"

The Big Hero 6 is a high-tech group of superheroes from San Fransokyo in the Disney's 2014 animated film of the same name and in Disney's sequel television series, Big Hero 6: The Series.

Background
Originally a group of students, the group was formed for the purpose of capturing the supervillain Yokai, the man responsible for the death of their friend (and Hiro's brother) Tadashi, and bringing him to justice. Thanks to the students' high intellect, the group built specialized suits based on the individual skills of each member, transforming themselves into high-tech superheroes. After not only stopping Yokai but also saving the city in effect, the team is coined "Big Hero 6" by the media and vow to protect San Fransokyo in honor of Tadashi.
