I thought non-canon only applied to things not in the worlds timeline. Things like BnHA Smash!! and the games are non-canon. I don't want to confuse people by saying that it doesn't take place in the BnHA even though the manga has Horikoshi's blessing. It wouldn't have been made if it didn't. We already know it takes place a year before the main manga.

Its kind of like how Star Wars has the main movies and the comics and novels. They are directly referenced in the movies, but they are canon to the timeline of the series and did happen. Thats all I'm trying to say. There was reddit post about Illegals and most people agree that it is canon to the story.
