Boku no Hero Academia the Movie 1: Futari no Hero

The uber popular Boku No Hero Academia is here with its very first movie. When it comes to shows like this, I can't help but feel they are promotional cash grabs meant to sucker people in who already love the show. It just so happens that I am one of those suckers. The very moment this movie was announced I knew I had to watch it and decide for myself whether it was a hollow replica or something that can stand on its own merit. Story- 7 This might as well have been called All Might the Movie because he is what drives this story's plot and is very much the highlight of what is otherwise a by the book film. We get to explore All Might's early days which is a treat for anyone who loves our plus ultra of justice, and its a shame we did not get to see anymore of All Might in his prime. Past that we are introduced to our main plot consisting of heroes and villains and you probably know where this is going. The first twenty and the last twenty minutes are by far the most compelling reasons to watch while the rest feels like filler. Overall, the story is fine with the real standout plot point being All Might's origin which doesn't last as long as it should. I will give it praise though for actually having a connection to the main story line. Characters- 7 It's pretty much the same cast we all know and love from the series, most of which do not serve a purpose nor do they experience much development. This is to be expected as the main character of this movie is our lord and savior All Might in all his youthful glory. Just getting to see All Might again with a smile on his face as he kicks some villain but laughing all the way is a sight to behold. We are also exposed to some unfamiliar faces created just for this movie. One of which, David Shield admittedly doesn't add much to All Might's character arc with the exception of their interaction in All Might's early days. In fact I found his daughter to be far more compelling and that's not just because Horikoshi is a wiz when it comes to designing female characters, as it was nice to see a quirkless character have some exposure in a quirk filled world. Oh yeah, there is also a villain because this is a superhero movie who isn't all that compelling and mainly serves as a punching bag for our main characters. Animation- 9 By far and a way this movie's main selling point is its animation. Boku no Hero Academia is already known for having stellar animation, so when it was greenlit for a movie you know Studio Bones is going to dial it up to eleven. There are quite a few standout scenes in this movie that can easily go toe-to-toe with some of the most hype moments in the main series. Speaking of hype, in case I haven't mentioned All Might enough already, most of the key scenes involve our boy in crisp animation so good your eyes will be screaming plus ultra! Sound- 6 I'll keep this part short as there isn't really much to say. Most of the music is reused and I couldn't hear much in the way of anything original which is disappointing. However the show music they do use is fine enough so it is what it is. Enjoyment- 8 Overall, I got what I wanted out of this movie. It had the All Might origin that I so desperately craved and well animated fight scenes that put a smile on my face. The story is good enough for a standard length movie and the characters served their purpose. I wouldn't say its an integral part of the overall story, but damn did it feel good seeing All Might going all out one last time.

This might sound bias to others, but i absolutely love this movie! I even have thought that watching this movie gave me MORE goosebumps than when i watched the 3rd season of its anime xD (but of course i love the anime series, don't get me wrong) If you're really a fan of BNHA then you better watch this movie! I totally enjoyed this especially those fight scenes. Another thing (more like a bonus) why love this movie is how most of the time, Bakugou and Todoroki are there when Deku is (kinda) in a pinch.... if you know what i mean *coughotpcough* ;) Anyways, that's all. I'm just so glad i watched this before going to bed, now i can have good night sleep :D

Story: The plot doesn't really excite me, it's pretty predictable, but it' is nice to see All Might's backstory. Art: The animation is nice, but sometimes it's not consistent, I saw some that feels like it was made by Studio Pierrot, but wait BNHA fans. I have to say this one the use of CGI in that final battle is one of the greatest use of CGI that I've ever seen in my whole life. They use CGI well and they've blended it well that I don't even notice it at first. Other studio should learn from this movie. Hats off to you Studio Bones. Sound: I love that ED song, that song it still on my mind and I will download it after I post this review. the seiyuu did a great job too. Character: "Hey, how about the new characters?" Me: Oh, they have new characters? I don't see them except for that villain. Well, the characters... the new SUPPORTING characters.... Well they do their job being a side characters. Enjoyment: I'm not a big BNHA fan but I really enjoy this movie. Will I recommend to a casual anime watcher to watch this movie? Definitely yes I would. This movie doesn't disappoint me it's a good first movie BNHA franchise. Hats off to you guys. You do a good job guys. Beforw I end this review let me say this SORA NI MUKOE E PURUSUU URUTORAAAA!!!

Yutaka Nakamura, the absolute god. This movie is worth sitting through just to see the final fight scene. Nakamura put in the effort animating that fight and dear lord, it is incredible. Otherwise, this movie is exactly what you'd expect for a shonen non-canon film. The first 2/3rds of the film feel like a drawn out episode with excessive amounts of flashbacks, recaps, and exposition. The new characters introduced are adequate additions to the cast, and Dave's motivations throughout the film are rather basic, but interesting for MHA standards. I would have liked to see less characters from class 1-A, as they made the movie feel very samey and detract from the overall experience of the film. 80% of the class being at this incredibly desirable and exclusive event stretches the suspension of disbelief to uncomfortable levels. To top it off, they have to spend a good 10-15 minutes offering explanations for why each and every character was shoehorned into the film. Paired with the prior mentioned flashbacks and recaps, it really felt like they were trying to cheap out on the budget for the first 1/3 of the film using these methods.

Saw this movie in theaters last night, safe to say it's a fucking BLAST. You can tell when animators get a movie budget, you could tell Yutaka Nakamura had a fucking field day on this one. It is not a perfect movie though, anyways on with the review! STORY: 5/10 The weakest part of the movie, the entire movie relies in a single plot twist. The problem is is that you can see it from a mile away, and it is does not have the required impact cause the characters aren't built up enough for it to work. It's pretty cookie cutter and standard as a plot in general, going into this I expected it too be the weakest part of the movie regardless. ART: 9/10 Yutaka Nakamura, remember this name. The entire final fight was animated by him (as a key animator), I have nothing but respect for this guy. Everything he touches is turned to gold, but again that is my opinion. My friends do like his animation style, I personally love it, so it comes down to preference. You can also see the movie budget, in general it is definitely a step-up around the board. SOUND: 9/10 Oh boy, prepared to get hyped, we have some throwbacks in this one. CHARACTER: 6/10 They did a pretty good job at making the characters interesting/likable for the limited time they had. The villain is mediocre at best, but still pretty decent considering he has no development AT ALL. Technically speaking, it would be nearly impossible for this movie to have over an 7 in this category just from the situation it was put in. TOO MUCH MINETA ALSO ); ENJOYMENT: 8/10 Overall, it's just silly fun. You know nothings really at stake cause nothing important is actually going to happen. I have to give this a lot of props for being as good as it was considering the limited time it had to buildup it's setting and characters. Music is good, animation is good, what else can you ask for from a side-story movie!? OVERALL: 7/10 Glad i was part of the few that got the chance to see this movie in theaters (: It is definitely worth the watch in a theater environment! This movie is going to be falsely praised due to the hype surrounding it. It is a great, fun watch! Nothing more, nothing less.

STORY: 8 The story isn't really complex or grand, and could very well work as a story arc in the anime, but it works well as a movie. The stakes aren't ground-breakingly high, just kind of "oh, dang" once it's revealed, and I'm okay with that. I'm glad it is the way it is. ART: 8 I was a bit surprised to find the art looked about the same as it did on the show; no noticeable raise in quality... until the final battle. Saving the great animation for the end was awesome, but that's not to say the rest of it wasn't also good. I really like the style they use in the anime, therefore I like what I see in the movie. SOUND: 8 Whenever I hear the main superhero theme "You Say Run", I get pumped. They played it twice, and both times enhanced the experience tenfold. They used a bunch of the motifs from the show, but the new music alongside it is just as good. CHARACTER: 9 The characters are all the same as they are in the show, so there's not a whole lot of development that can happen (since the show is still ongoing while the movie was being made and released), but the cast is charismatic as usual, and without the excellent character writing, this would be mediocre. The new characters, Dave and Melissa Shield, were neat additions to the crew. I kind of wish they did a little more with Melissa, but what they did do was satisfying enough. ENJOYMENT: 9 It's Boku no Hero, so yeah, I flipping enjoyed the crap out of it! The fights were awesome, the little funny moments dispersed throughout just made it great. Those, plus all the other great things I've mentioned earlier make this super fun and exciting. OVERALL: 8.4 I really like My Hero Academia, so I had my doubts going in, hoping that it would live up to my expectations of the show. It not only met my expectations, but went above and beyond to make this movie PLUS ULTRA!

I went into this movie with low expectations with a few friends to the Australian opening weekend of the sub and surprisingly wasn't let down even if it was filler. Season 3 was not great, and I'm not sure how it's higher rated than the movie to be honest, action and excitement wise, the movie takes the cake. If you have watched all seasons of the show, it may leave you a little stumped as to when the movie actually takes place, I was trying to figure it out with my friends and from what I gathered it takes place after Season 2, and before Season 3. I found this 5x more interesting than anything that had happened in the second half of Season 3, so I was extremely happy and delighted. Overall, the movie covers a bit of All-Might's backstory and progresses the bond between the class of UA, even if it is just filler, I quite enjoyed it.

Finally got to see the MHA movie 2 Heroes and it was pretty damn good. Wow that action scene at the end was nuts. Like WOW, that looked incredible. Jaw dropping scene. Double Detroit Smash rocked the house. The story overall was alright. A little convenient with some things, but i brushed them aside mostly. The group dynamic was strong as hell. Class 1A makes quite the team when they want to. Comedy was great too. Laughed way more than i expected. Really liked the Island itself, sounds like quite the haven. The movie original characters were alright. Melissa was a bubbly girl who was ok, nothing really great or awful about her. David was cool too, didn't see much of him really but i empathized with his desire to get his work back. The villain was really interesting. Your normal shonen movie villan but his quirk was badass. The whole thing with the like triple, or quadruple, or whatever cross that happened with David, Sam and Wolfram actually caught me off guard a bit. Knew something was up but didn't quite get there myself. Didn't expect it to get so bloody too, like bullet wounds bloody was interesting. The whole cast was great as an ensemble. Dub sounded on point too and so did the music as always. A few negatives would be that while the animation in the end fight was bonkers good. Some of the early stuff, and some later stuff too, looked just plain bad. Like any and every wide shot looked kinda awful. But that's really the only big thing, which isn't too big cause if that's the sacrifice for Double Detroit Smash then I'm ok witu it tbh. Oh and the pacing was kinda weird too. Lots of strange hard black cuts too. Overall it was a ton of fun. Loved it a lot and made me smile tons. The tools are just too good to be weighed down by a kinda wonky set up. 8/10. PS: the theater was lacked to the gills, like damn it was packed with a captial p. So of course there were some obnoxious patrons. Most notably would be a couple of like maybe 8 or 10 year old little girls whom screamed and squealed at every little thing right next to me. Kinda off putting and overly dramatic at times. Some other a holes were kinda making fun of the movie too, but they were that bad. At least not as bad as the squealing.

Man, this movie delivered everything I wanted and more. It kept that familiar My Hero Academia vibe we’ve all come to love — the kind of energy that makes you root for the underdog and feel every punch during a fight scene. From start to finish, it felt like an extended but polished arc from the main series, and that’s a compliment. What stood out most for me was how they gave Midoriya that special support gear. It didn’t feel out of place — it made perfect sense in the context, and honestly, it was refreshing to see him go all out without completely wrecking his body for once. I seriously wish he had something like that in the main series because it adds such a cool dynamic to his fighting style. And the action? Absolutely wild. The animation quality during the final showdown had me on the edge of my seat. The team-up moments, especially with All Might, gave me chills. That double Detroit Smash? Still not over it. Also, it was fun seeing the whole Class 1-A crew show up — I literally grinned when familiar faces kept popping in one after another. But if I’m being real... that’s also one of my gripes. They brought everyone in, but a good chunk of them ended up just standing in the background. Like, why hype the full squad if half of them don’t even get a proper moment? Felt like wasted potential there. Still, minor nitpick aside, this was a solid movie. It felt like it respected the source material, didn’t try too hard to be “movie-level epic” — it just told a good, tight story with solid emotional beats and hype moments. If you're already a fan of the series, it hits exactly where it should.

I appreciate that this movie actually expands on the world of My Hero Academia and also explores more of All Might's backstory. Apart from that the movie is very predictable and forgettable. It doesn't help that the villain is unmemorable and the supporting character Melissa who is quirkless, could've been very interesting but just ends up being a very bland supporting character. The animation quality is just more or less the same as the show which is disappointing as you would expect they would give this a movie budget quality but it never really amounts to anything more. It's not terrible movie and if you already liked the show then this is just basically more of that. It's a shame they didn't use the movie to do more though.

It gave me hope and power at the end of the movie. I was grinning to my cheeks like a child. That raw feeling giving you power and hope when you take down overwhelming adversities one by one. Now I know the reason why I love My Hero Academia again. It captured my heart like Izuku seeing All Might save people. That's how it affected me. I couldn't give a dang about how anyone says about the overall movie. This is a Shounen that captivated me to feel hope, even at the hardest times. I had fun with the characters and how they interacted.

For the first movie of the series, I did have high expectations. Although some of those expectations were met, I was let down by a few points throughout the movie. The lower score mostly comes from the hurried ending and the character-building for the new characters. What makes Boku no Hero Academia so special is how it involves the entire class. Far too often in a school-themed anime, the show/movie only focuses on like 1 or 2 people. But BNHA utilizes all the characters in the school so they're not just background figures for Izuku and Bakugo. Although the movie only focuses on certain kids from class 1-A, it was a relief that all the kids were featured at some point, even if only for a moment. That said BNHA introduces two new characters for the movie's plot. While good characters, I felt there could've been more time spent on character building. We all have seen class 1-A and know them well. I wish I could've felt the same connection towards the new characters brought into the movie. The last thing on my list is that the movie ended abruptly. I know abruptly is vague but I'm trying not to spoil anything. They definitely could've taken 15 minutes to have a cooldown. Once the movie ended. I felt like it just wasted my time because there were some questions I want to be answered. Who knows? They might answer them in movie 2. Overall, it was a bit rushed but still a good movie, and if you like BNHA definitely check it out.

Imagine if this movie was the first thing about MHA you see (and you're not a shounen fan), would it appeal to you? Admittedly, I would have enjoyed this movie as an MHA first-timer and non-shounen fan. That's why the irony is that, as an avid MHA fan, this movie was a slap in the face. The production value was nice, but the effort to write a decent and well thought-out storyline was low-key. This movie clearly rode on the coattails of the series' success to be this mediocre and predictable, and possibly not up-to-date with what's actually happening in the show. Like most anime movies based on a series, the setting is in an isolated movie-only situation. There are some new people who show up in the movie to be relevant (with a shoehorned backstory to justify that), there's villains to be worried about, and it's up to our heroes to save the day. This formula is followed by this movie to a T. To add insult to injury, only a certain and very small portion of the UA cast were selected to take center stage, while the rest were given 5 to 10 seconds of screentime before pushing them out of the picture once their existence in the movie was established. To say nothing of the MHA characters, some of them were turned into cliche stereotypes of themselves, while most of them barely did anything to make an impact throughout the movie. And again, this was because of the 95% being cut out of the plot. As for the movie-only characters, the Shields (which I daresay is a blatant Marvel reference), their part to play in All Might's making as the greatest hero of all time doesn't have the kind of impact the screenwriter must have been banking on. Nothing was at stake or gained with this family; whatever reasons they had for doing what they did or what they wanted to do, were half-hearted and barely believable to really make fans care about what they may achieve outside of the main story, let alone root for their success. The Shields went through the motions of being heartwarming and stirring up the conflict necessary to give them all an adversary to fight back, and they still pale in comparison to the accomplishments of Horikoshi's own characters, who were always a cut above the usual anime tropes. Nothing was gained or reaffirmed in this movie. It was pure filler from start to finish. On a more personal note, I'm still waiting for Bones (or preferably Horikoshi himself) to write up a movie storyline that plays out like a DC animated film instead of another anime cashgrab, really give me something to get hyped up about.

Preface: I saw this in actual theatre so I am aware that that enhanced some of my experience for sound and looks. Overall, this movie is very much an "anime movie". It has the predictable anime superhero plot line with some minor twists that allow for a thorough enjoyment of the plot overall. A key thing I greatly enjoyed was the All Might short it started out with that kind of opened up the character of All Might to the viewers in a way we hadn't particularly seen. This then, obviously, fed later in to the movie when we got to meet other big All Might fans that had actually known him in his other ages, contrasting to young Midoriya who just idolised him and his past, despite not really being there for it. The characters that were movie exclusive were also compelling ranging from the powered villian who basely sought out more power for his employer and himself to the young, powerless girl All Might had known since her younger days. These compelling characters combined with a signature MHA soundtrack allowed for a great overall experience that, like with most shonen, was cookie cutter yet used its IP to try and stand out as its own well-developed film.

I have to say that while the movie was slowly building up to something potentially really good, around the 70% mark, when the villain motivations were revealed, it REALLY dropped the ball. There were a lot of scientists who were doing some kind of good/gray area things with very dumb methods. On top of that most of the heroes powers are de-powered in very obvious ways. Most notably, Deku. All that said, all the of new characters were enjoyable and added some much needed lore to the series, like the crime rates in other countries and how All Might is seen outside of Japan. Also it addressed that science is indeed not being left behind at all by all the quirk powered people. Yes, it was acknowledged in the series before, but not by adult scientists. Though not having any new heroes introduced in such a locations sounds very bizarre, it was probably for the best that they focused on partner fights with the UA students for the whole movie rather than introduce heroes we'd never see ever again. The setting however was heavily under-utilized. They barely talked about it, including what country owns it...Also apparently it is entirely policed by robots, which I don't think have ever been mentioned as existing in the series ever before. The music was reused from previous seasons so it didn't really stick out and the art was perhaps a bit weaker than the normal seasons as well. Also the bit where they showed All Might when he was young should've been more important, or better yet the whole plot of the movie. Overall, it had a lot of potential and had some really solid momentum for most of the movie, but a soon as villain motivations were mentioned the whole premise of the movie kind of stopped everything in its tracks. That's just my initial impression, after the movie ended I started finding a plot whole or two with the villains as well. They didn't need to be complex, which they weren't, but even with simple motivations and a mostly simple villainous plan, the movie still failed to keep the villains anywhere close to believable.

The very first movie of one of the most escalated shounen anime rising in popularity that was hyped up. People in the BNHA fanbase were excited for it, even I was into thinking it'll be great, but was unable to purchase the movie because of money issues. I just so happened to find a copy in the college library I work at and decided to check it out myself after waiting for so long to do so on a weekend night. And in a way, I was disappointed to some extent. What is my issue you might ask? Why am I, who consider myself a BNHA fan, be annoyed with how this movie was played? Well, here's why... Warning: Spoilers --- Story [5]: Okay, the story was a rough 5-6 score point for me. Yes, the story is not meant to be a solid canon to the BNHA main storyline, but at the same time, it's pretty forgettable. It doesn't have a storyline that hasn't been done before in other shounen stories. Defeat some big bad villain and win the day. The only reason that the main villain in the whole story is really there is because of the canon villain in the main storyline. The thing with the main storyline villains that we are introduced to have character development and backstories. That would be extremely difficult to accomplish in a movie timeframe, I agree. But our main villain in the movie is just cheesy. He doesn't really have a real goal besides snatching a person and an item before bolting off somewhere. The 'plot twists' in the movie are predictable, especially if you have watched other shounen movies or even just movies in general before. All the characters we know in the main storyline or are introduced to in the movie are just...there. They have no real purpose besides to set up the movie's storyline. They are there with the lamest of excuses. Only our main protagonist and his mentor appear to have a swell purpose in there throughout the movie. It's just a coincidence that they're all there. Instead of this, they should've just brought in all the classmates and say it was a school trip or something. But then they'd have to spend more of a budget for this movie with more voice actors coming in, character drawings, etc. You wanna know what pissed me off the most? When the characters are looking at each other, they for some reason have some sort of telepathic understanding of what the other wants from them. What??? It would be as pointless if there was nothing being said that whole time of just staring at each other! Was there something I miss in the main storyline that where the characters all learn this telepathic communication thing with just their eyes? Was there someone telepathic in the midst something letting them do that? I don't understand! But it would've been more worth the time to push this movie out, right? It's rather obvious the movie was created just for a cash grab with a plot this stiff; Sorry for the rant there, but here's the plot of it; main protag comes in with his mentor and coincidentally, meets some of his classmates there. They do some stuff together, happy happy, and then the big bad villain comes in to sh*t on their parade. Big bad villain takes down main protag's badass mentor with some other heroes and its up to the main protag to kick his ass with his classmates, get the girl (who won't matter after this movie), and get that happy, pointless ending. That's the plot. Mediocre is a real good title for the score point. Art [7]: The art's pretty alright. It holds up to it's main storyline's art. It holds true to the character designs. But I can notice even on my first movie watch that there are animation and drawing errors when characters do something such as running together. Other times, there's CGI... Yeah, that's a tough thing to work with on a 2D animation level. It's not the worst. But it's definitely not Ghost in the Shell levels. One of the obstacles that the characters have to face is so simple and bland-looking that I question why it was even CGI-made to begin with. Only part I thought was ideal to use CGI on was at the very end of the movie due to the complicated nature of what was going on. I think they could've worked more on the animation progress than what they did, but otherwise, it could've worked off as a typical BNHA episode's level of design, if they throw away the CGI junk. Sound [7]: BNHA's music is amazing. Always so inspiring to hear and almost never do I skip the opening or endings of each main storyline episode I watch with them. Hearing them again in this movie is none the worse. I expected to have new music though at least and not just revised orchestra themed versions, but hey, I already admitted to knowing this movie was just a cash grab. But otherwise, the music is okay when it is there. Otherwise, it's silent and feels somewhat empty whenever something is happening. Character [4]: HAHAHAHAHA- This is the fun part. The characters we're introduced to are downright cheap and lazy. As I said, it's hard to get a character developed in a matter of a movie's timeframe, but seriously, one of the new characters are absolutely not even important to have. They're there, because...they're there. They are an addition to some backpiece to the mentor's backstory, but otherwise, they could've been pressed off into some manga chapter or slowly formed in the main storyline over time, not in a movie. The unimportant character, named Melissa, has only one purpose in the whole storyline; to help the main protag get back control of the highjacked island that was taken by the big bad villain. She has no quirk, relating to Midoriya, our main protag. I can see why she was made; just as a romantic option for Midoriya to squeeze in on. They made it obvious that way when all the convenience female classmates that end up there express their jealousy in the beginning when Midoriya is hanging out with Melissa. Since when did they have hots for him besides Uraraka, our bubbly, gravity-free girl? What was the point? If you took Melissa out of the picture, I wouldn't even notice. We already have good based female characters who know what they're doing in a way of hero's work. Midoriya was willing to risk a life of a quirkless girl who was only there to shut down a system. How does she even know how the system works? Did her father make the system? Did she work with security before? That's like a random citizen of a country just knowing how to bypass their government's system. Really cheap. At least she made this boss invention for Midoriya to use to help him succeed, but surprise surprise, he breaks it and he never will use it again, unless somehow, some reason, she decides to remake it for him to use that won't break each time he uses it. As for her father who has the North American name Dave, because he is from the United States after all, is in relation to All Might, Midoriya's mentor's, backstory as the dude who just stuck around with him. He was saved by All Might, is quirkless like his daughter, and decided to go into the scientific field to invest his time with All Might as a way to thank him and save lives with him, even if indirect. Dave made this certain device for All Might as to improve his heroism, only to have it taken away due to governmental issues with it. He has an assistant named Sam, who betrays him later in the movie, who holds no purpose EITHER besides just handing the device to the big bad villain. He just wanted money for the device even after working all these years with Dave. Talk about worthless loyalty being as worthless as the character. The big, bad villain I've been talking about? Don't even know his name. Maybe the movie said it somewhere. I don't know, but I certainly don't remember it. I recall the guy having scars all over his face, who had a hyped up reveal throughout the movie, but other than that, he was just another villain with a mask on who was a goon for an actually interesting main villain in the main storyline. Hilarious they only had the main villain's voice actor come in for like,…

I expected a lot from this movie, but the experience ended up as a bit mediocre for me. The animation is great as usual, and so is the sound, although at times it felt a hint recycled from the series itself. I absolutely loved the idea of Deku and All Might heading off to a sort of "side story" of their own, especially with All Might's past mixed in, but this is exactly why I felt that mixing in so much of the regular cast was a mistake. The new side characters felt new and interesting, while the regular ones were crammed in so bad that they didn't come off as nearly as interesting or resourceful as in the series itself. In short, not a bad movie, but not a memorable one either. It tried to emulate the series in a film's form factor, which in my opinion wasted most of the film's potential and premise.

The story this movie showed me was honestly very good but with a slight bit of “it could have been better” feel. Characters from the TV series were still very interesting and all played their parts really well. However, new characters such as David and Melissa were pretty bland in my opinion. Had real big expectations to Dave’s character but it turned out pretty mediocre. Melissa felt redundant as well though I do understand why a character like her’s would be beneficial to the movie. My main complaint would be the villain, he felt really boring without a real purpose in this film. Music and scores were above average, nothing really outstanding. However, the animation really saved the movie. The final fight truly outstanding, as expected from My Hero Academia fights. The emotional feeling from seeing Midoriya and All Might working side by side, pupil and mentor, really made me feel a sense of pride. Similar to seeing Minato alongside Naruto in the ninja war arc. The fights was truly spectacular and like I said, this is the one redeeming point in the movie! Overall, the movie is still considered good in my opinion though some may find it boring and tasteless. It was still a fun movie to understand some of all might’s past though slightly.

The movie wasn't bad, wasn't too great either in my opinion. I don't think it was necessary to make this movie. It was fine to watch, but it gave be filler vibes that I got from Bleach. All the character joining in seemed a little much and unnecessary, but there were some enjoyable scenes between them all. I give it a 7, I wouldn't necessarily watch it again soon though. The series I can watch over and over, but like I said, the movie wasn't really necessary. Story: 7. It was a predictable story line and how they brought in all of the characters was a little lame, but there were moments that really made me smile and beam. It was very nice to see a young All Might and some of his past. Art: 8. I LOVE the art style of Boku no Hero so I cant take points off of that. Sound: 8. AMAZING! Yuki Hayashi is an amazing composer and knows how to take a viewer into the movie. It made up for the errors I found in the movie. Character: 6. While I love the character designs, the way they were all introduced into this story was kind of lame. It was as if they wanted to put all the character in there that we all love, but it was forced and kind of just to have them there. It was kind of disappointing. They don't have a reason to be there. If it had been just All Might and Deku from UA, that would have been more than enough. Enjoyment: 7. Just because 6 is too low and 8 is too high. It was fine to watch for once, but I wont be watching it over and over again like the series. I kind of want to give it between 6.5 and 6.8, but I cant do that so I round it up to a 7. Overall: 7. It was enjoyable but I had expected more from it. I waited so long to watch it, was super stoked! but it let me down slightly. I just couldnt get over the unnecessary filler vibe.

This is my first time writing a review, but I just saw the movie in the theatres and I got inspired by something, so this is what I think about the movie. Story: 6/10 Character: 8/10 There was really not enough PLOT, no not that plot, but seriously the plot twist was foreshadowed and there wasn't enough shown between Dave and All Might to make the story impactful. Therefore the whole movie is just like an extended fight scene between heroes and villains. Art: 10/10 Well it was what you would expect from boku no hero academia, that is why I absolutely love it. Awesome fight scenes, awesome fight scenes and awe.. Sound: 8/10 There weren't any new soundtracks and stuff, so basically they reused the soundtracks from the anime but they were good as well. Enjoyment: 8/10 I watched the movie with a few others and they thought it was underwhelming, though I personally quite enjoyed it, so guys go watch the movie! Overall 8/10
