My hero Academia is one of the best shonen anime currently airing, and it deserves a great đoạn phim game that lives up to its reputation. While My nhân vật One’s Justice unfortunately doesn’t hit that high bar, it does a good job of adapting the kích hoạt and spectacle of the anime into fighting game form. The gorgeous visuals và a flashy one-on-one combat system make it seem lượt thích a fan’s dream fighting game, but the shiny exterior hides a fairly simplistic foundation, và once the spectacle of the action wears off, My anh hùng One’s Justice feels less lượt thích All Might, and more like “just alright.”

My hero One’s Justice is a 3 chiều arena fighter with a combat system that could be best explained as an appropriately quirky version of Rock, Paper, Scissors. You have three main options when it comes lớn attacking up close: normal attacks, counter attacks, and unblockable attacks. Normals are fast enough lớn interrupt và beat unblockables, counters absorb normal attacks before delivering their own powerful strike, và unblockables crush through counters. There are some extra nuances of course, like just guards, dashes, và dash cancels, but that’s the general overview of combat.

And then there are the literal quirks, the chất lượng powers that break the Rock, Paper, Scissors mold. This is where My nhân vật One’s Justice shines. Each character’s quirks are very fun khổng lồ use and give them their own unique fighting style. Todoroki’s quirk allow him to bombard opponents with fire & ice from a distance, Aizawa’s can seal off his opponent's quirks, while Kirishima’s gives him a super armor buff. It’s all very true to lớn the show, making characters play exactly like you’d think they would.
Characters play exactly lượt thích you’d think they would, but eventually the shallowness of combat begins lớn show.
But eventually, the shallowness of the combat begins to lớn show through. In the mặc định “normal” combat mode, combos are executed simply by mashing one button. If you want to lớn truly explore what the bộ combo system can do, you can switch the mode lớn “manual” and find your own combos, but the problem is that auto combos for many characters are already so strong, there’s little incentive khổng lồ learn manual combos.If there’s one thing that My nhân vật One’s Justice nails, it’s bringing the speed, action, và sense of sheer power of My anh hùng Academia into a 3d fighter. Characters that should feel powerful, feel lượt thích absolute behemoths; those that are known for their speed, feel appropriately fast; and even characters, lượt thích Ochaco and Tsuyu, that aren’t really known for their combat prowess, have very satisfying movesets that make them feel like they could actually put up a fight against characters that they would canonically stand no chance against.






There’s also some great environmental destructibility, as well as the hilarious mechanic of planting your opponent face first into the wall, which then allows run on the wall and get some không lấy phí hits in before they break free. It’s a fun cảm ứng that also rewards environmental awareness.

Let's Story!

The story mode of One’s Justice picks up midway through season 2 of the anime and ends at about the midway point of season 3 as well, so it’s definitely not the greatest entry point for new fans. Even if it was though, the way the story is laid out is pretty underwhelming. Each chapter essentially serves as a super abridged retelling of the anime, told with a combination of screen grabs from the show and animated in-game character models. Though it does feature full voice acting from the Japanese cast, those who prefer the dub are out of luck.


It's hard to tell who the story mode is for, as it doesn't offer anything new for fans & doesn't ease newcomers in at at all.

It’s hard to lớn really tell who the story mode is for. For fans, the mode doesn’t present anything new, nor does it present anything old in a way that makes it worth revisiting it again. For newcomers, it completely skips over the first 26 episodes of the anime. There are some bright spots though. A small handful of big story moments are brought to lớn life in-engine, và it gives a small glimpse of what story mode could’ve been. If there were more of these & less static screens, One’s Justice’s story mode could’ve been salvaged.

While Story Mode ends up being disappointing, Mission Mode actually provides a much more enjoyable single player experience. There are a total of six maps to complete, each with their own phối of challenges. As you complete challenges, your characters cấp độ up, increasing their stats & making them better equipped to lớn handle tougher missions.

It’s tough, especially because your health carries over from fight khổng lồ fight, & though you can use items lớn restore health, và provide boosts lớn other stats in the next fight, doing so decreases your overall score at the end, so there’s a balance lớn be had if you’re trying khổng lồ maximize your score.


Beyond that, there’s a traditional arcade mode & online modes, though the servers were barren at the time of this review, so I haven’t been able to test out the servers.

There’s no character creation feature in One’s Justice, which feels lượt thích a huge missed opportunity, but you can customize your characters with items that can either be purchased with in-game currency or earned through completing missions. There are a couple of funny chất lượng items, mostly involving Mineta, but for the most part, all of the cosmetic items are just items worn by other characters from My anh hùng Academia, which makes customized characters kind of just look like they fell into a My hero Academia themed prop box.


There’s definitely fun to lớn be had with My nhân vật One’s Justice. It’s super easy to lớn pick up và play, the kích hoạt is fast and beautiful to look at, & it does a great job of adapting the quirks & abilities from the anime to a 3 chiều arena fighter. That fun eventually starts to fade away due khổng lồ shallow combat and a weak story mode, but overall, it’s not a bad first endeavor.
Whether you want khổng lồ see the destruction of humanity or believe heroes should defend those in need, fight to lớn prove your justice in My hero One"s Justice, based on the popular anime series.
