The animated worlds latest sensation MY Hero Academia is going into overdrive with a video game and an original movie.
If you watch, read, and love anime and manga My Hero Academia has made it into your lexicon. And with good reason, the anime, adapted from the manga of the same name, is a heartfelt love letter to superhero comics around the world. Now fans are not only getting a Studio Bones produced all-new original movie this September 25 called My Hero Academia: Two Heroes where Izuku and All Might are invited to a summer trip at “I Island”, a man-made island where the top scientists of the world reside and perform research on Quirks. During their stay, Izuku meets Melissa Shield, one of the island’s residents who is Quirkless, like he was once, and they become close friends. When the mysterious villain Wolfram takes control of the island, threatening to kill all its residents, it falls to the Hero Association and the students of U.A. High to stop him and a Bandai Namco Entertainment published video game coming on August 23, called My Hero One’s Justice for the Playsation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows described as a battle action game where Quirks collide!
Written by Kohei Horikoshi the manga debuting in Weekly Shonen Jump in July of 2014 and as of August 7, 2018, 14 volumes have been released in English with Studio Bones adapting the series into an anime in April of 2016 and both were instant smash hits. My Hero Academia is the story of Izuku Midoriya, a boy born without superpowers called Quirks in this case, in a world where they are the norm, but who still dreams of becoming a superhero himself. He is scouted by the world’s greatest hero All Might when he saves the life of a frenemy after school one day. All Might then shares his powers with Izuku after recognizing his bravery and later enrolls him in the most prestigious high school for heroes in training.
Thanks to Horikoshi My Hero Academia the manga is as strong as ever, as is the anime which can be seen currently streaming its subs on Crunchyroll now on season 3 and has recently released an episode directly connected to the upcoming movie. Whether your a super fan (like me) or new to My Hero Academia I know both movie My Hero Academia: Two Heroes and the new video game My Hero One’s Justice will be time well spent till we all get our own Quirks.
