My Hero One's Justice

I think ultimately, this game will boil down to what each individual player is looking for. My Hero One's Justice falls in between something casual and competitive, a game that can be fun to enjoy with friends or played competitively at a much lesser level than other games in the fighting game community. On that note, I'll leave you with a saying from the greatest hero of all time... PLUS ULTRA!!!

I came into One’s Justice as a fan of the show and manga. That, and I absolutely relished the chance to beat the living hell out of Bakugo with Deku. I’m no stranger to 3D fighters, and One’s Justice, for all its repetitiveness in the story and small roster, I consider a worthy purchase. I’ve whiled away plenty of hours as Denki in the arcade, and occasionally go back to the story for laughs or a better score in a mission. Gameplay is smooth, polished, frantic, and fun...while offline/local gameplay. If you decide to go online, be prepared to see a lot of fire trails and counter-spam. If your ...

My Hero One’s Justice sees Bandai at their property-managing best, bringing a hugely enjoyable fighting game experience to the My Hero Academia franchise. The Switch version has a few rough edges, but ultimately the colourful anime brawling feels perfectly at home on Nintendo’s continually surprising handheld.

My Hero Academia isn't reinventing the anime fighter wheel just yet, but above average combat and incredible source material means the next title has a lot of room to improve. The game's visuals and atmosphere are a blast and it is great fun to wield the expanisve variety of abilities. The combat system, while certainly playable, could use a bit more nuance, and storytelling seems confused about who its aimed at. Overall, My Hero One's Justice is a strong first entry with mountains of potential in what we hope will become a long running series.

Though it's a perfectly fun 3D fighter, My Hero One's Justice fails to match the tone and scale of the show it's based on.

There’s definitely fun to be had with My Hero One’s Justice. It’s super easy to pick up and play, the action is fast and beautiful to look at, and it does a great job of adapting the quirks and abilities from the anime to a 3D arena fighter. That fun eventually starts to fade away due to shallow combat and a weak story mode, but overall, it’s not a bad first endeavor.

How much you get out of My Hero One’s Justice will likely depend on how much you enjoy either My Hero Academia or how much you desire a highly accessible, style-over-substance fighter. Given that we live in a time with a seemingly unprecedented number of absolutely fantastic anime fighters, that might be a big ask for some. In the end, the game’s biggest sin may be not embodying U.A.’s “Plus Ultra” spirit, and simply settling for being a decent, good-looking fighting game take on a popular anime franchise.

My Hero One's Justice combines great visuals and attention to each characters’ Quirks and fighting style with a slapdash story mode and English presentation that will leave this one only for fans to really enjoy.

Goes beyond, but not Plus Ultra.

Ultimately, My Hero One’s Justice will entertain those who it’s made for, but it wont impress them. It’s yet another flashy anime-based fighter that sacrifices deep mechanics in pursuit of explosive battles, and while there’s nothing wrong with that, it limits the game’s long-term appeal. Also, thanks to its story mode being quite inaccessible to those who aren’t familiar with the series, it’s not even a good entry point for those wanting to take their first steps into its thoroughly entertaining world. It’s not a bad game by any means, but My Hero One’s Justice has very limited appeal.

My Hero One’s Justice takes the essence of the source material and wraps it into an enjoyable package. This is by no means the definitive "My Hero Academia" experience a fan might have been hoping for, but it's still a fun one.

It’s been a very good year for anime in gaming, with the successful release of several popular Shōnen series games including Dragon Ball Fighter Z and Black Clover: Quartet Knights. My Hero One’s Justice is the latest Shōnen game to come out and it has been one crazy gaming experience. Based on the popular superhero manga series of the same name, its colourful cast of heroes and villains lends itself well to a fast paced fighting game full of over-the-top attacks and dramatic finishes. ...
