  • Fun and enjoyable gameplay that captures the essence of the My Hero Academia anime.
  • Great character customization options and unique playstyles for each character.
  • Visually appealing graphics and animations that enhance the overall experience.

  • story
    360 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story mode of the game closely follows the plot of the "My Hero Academia" anime, primarily covering seasons 2 and 3, but many players find it lacking in depth and engagement, often describing it as a brief and repetitive retelling with minimal animated cutscenes. While fans of the series may appreciate the familiar characters and events, newcomers may struggle to connect with the story due to its reliance on prior knowledge of the anime, and the presentation through comic panels has been criticized for being underwhelming. Overall, the story mode is seen as a missed opportunity to provide a more immersive narrative experience, with many reviewers suggesting that it feels more like a recap than a standalone story.

    • “The story mode is fun and goes through the storyline of the anime/manga, isn't difficult, and isn't super long either.”
    • “The story is well adapted from the anime/manga, starting at the halfway point of season 2.”
    • “The story mode consists of moving comic panels with voices and music, which provides a unique storytelling experience.”
    • “The story mode follows the anime's plot but feels brief and may not offer much for those unfamiliar with the series.”
    • “The story is not worth it.”
    • “The story mode is presented through a combination of well-animated cutscenes and anime screenshots (which appear as comic panels).”
  • gameplay
    121 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the fun and frantic fighting mechanics reminiscent of other anime fighters, while others criticize it for being shallow, repetitive, and overly simplistic. Many users noted issues with the controls, AI, and a lack of content, leading to a perception that the game is not worth its price. Overall, while fans of the series may find enjoyment in the gameplay, it is often described as lacking depth and polish.

    • “The gameplay is smooth, polished, frantic, and fun...while offline/local gameplay.”
    • “Amazing gameplay and it is really fun to play with friends.”
    • “The innovative fighting mechanic for this game makes it so much more enjoyable to learn how to play different characters than many other games of the genre.”
    • “This game is the same as the second one, only worse gameplay.”
    • “Game is boring; mechanics are for a 4-year-old child.”
    • “Limited attacks (literally trash in regards to combos, abilities, etc.), small character roster, bland slow and boring gameplay.”
  • graphics
    98 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received generally positive feedback, with many players praising the vibrant art style and faithful representation of the anime aesthetic. While some noted that the visuals can appear simplistic or outdated at times, the overall presentation is considered appealing, with smooth animations and enjoyable effects during combat. However, a few users expressed disappointment regarding the lack of graphic settings and occasional technical issues, but most agree that the graphics enhance the gaming experience.

    • “Amazing graphics and easy control.”
    • “The visuals are absolutely stunning at times; I spent most of my missions as Dabi just because his ability to paint the arena with his blue flames is a delight to witness.”
    • “The graphics are absolutely beautiful, the flow of the fighting is also insanely smooth and just pleasing to look at.”
    • “I expected it to be so much more, but I've played the story game, which is much like a comic book, and then the fights, which aren't by any chance awesome, seem more like outdated graphics, or revamped ones.”
    • “As unrealistic as it was for me to assume that, the game's visuals themselves aren't up to par with that trailer, which is unfortunate.”
    • “Gameplay isn't polished at all, graphics look like they should be for the PS2.”
  • music
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some praising the soundtrack as fitting and reflective of the source material, while others find it bland and unmemorable. Notably, players express frustration over the inability to fully mute the music and the absence of certain beloved characters from the soundtrack. Overall, while the music complements the visuals, it fails to leave a lasting impression for many players.

    • “Great music.”
    • “They translated the characters to 3D perfectly, the soundtrack is amazing, and while the roster isn't too large, they picked the right characters for the most part.”
    • “I also think the visuals and music are quite good.”
    • “One of my main irks with the game is that you can't mute the music fully, and while the roster has all the top favorites from the show, my main characters Koji and Sugar Rush are nowhere in sight.”
    • “The music in the game is pretty bland.”
    • “Admittedly, I don't remember much of the game's music; I recall from my last play session that it was fairly fitting, but none of it really stuck with me when I stepped away.”
  • stability
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability has received mixed reviews, with many players reporting frequent glitches, crashes, and freezes, particularly in menus and during online play. While some users have experienced smooth gameplay without major issues, others highlight significant technical problems that detract from the overall experience. Overall, the game is considered fun but is marred by its buggy performance, leading to a general consensus that it may not be worth its full price at this time.

    • “During gameplay, the game runs great and smooth with no problems so far. However, in the menus, specifically the costume menu, there can be a random game freeze for about 5 seconds occasionally.”
    • “The stability of the game is impressive; I haven't encountered any crashes or major issues while playing.”
    • “Overall, the game maintains a solid performance, providing a stable experience that enhances the enjoyment.”
    • “Has some pretty annoying glitches and crashes, but overall the game is good.”
    • “The game often freezes and crashes all the time, and that hasn't happened to me at all after 7 hours of playing.”
    • “I still can't give it five stars because the game still freezes in the menus quite frequently, and I often have to force close it.”
  • humor
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, with players enjoying quirky characters like the frog girl and amusing moments, such as enemies making silly choices. While some humorous elements can detract from gameplay, the overall comedic experience, including entertaining character customization, adds to the game's charm. Despite some frustrations with online play, players find the game's humor to be a significant draw.

    • “I like the frog girl; she is funny! ”
    • “I love this game; it's very funny and nice. To be honest, it's my hero academia—who doesn't like this game?”
    • “It's funny they announced Endeavor towards the launch, and clearly he is broken.”
  • optimization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the optimization of the game has received mixed feedback. While some users praise the graphics and frame rate, others report issues such as keyboard controls not being well-optimized and occasional freezes during gameplay. Additionally, there are concerns about specific features, like moving the game between windows and certain character abilities feeling unoptimized.

    • “Optimization is great.”
    • “The graphics are good, same for the FPS and optimization.”
    • “There's a story mode, like you'd expect, where you're graded on performance which can unlock optional gear to customize the characters (new skins, palette swaps, other characters' gear, etc.).”
    • “So far I can't move the game from one window to another, and the keyboard controls are not optimized at all.”
    • “Performance-wise, I've run into a few freezes that take a little while to resolve.”
    • “(Dabi's ultimate is kind of unoptimized though.)”
  • grinding
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that while grinding is a significant aspect of the game, it can be enjoyable for those who appreciate it. However, some find the repetitive nature of grinding, especially when combined with lengthy story slides, to be tedious. The game offers a good balance of customization options and makes it relatively easy to earn in-game currency, allowing players to either grind or purchase items as they prefer.

    • “Some of the achievements are grindy, but that's part of the course.”
    • “Requiring the player to watch literally every story slide between actual gameplay was really tedious since, as mentioned previously, I've already seen the anime.”
    • “There's a lot of grinding and spamming buttons, but it's all fun to do.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy has been criticized as a cash grab, particularly regarding the DLC, which many feel exploits the anime's popularity. However, there are no microtransactions present in the game.

    • “There are no microtransactions, which makes the experience feel fair and enjoyable.”
    • “I appreciate that the game doesn't rely on monetization tactics; it allows me to fully immerse myself without distractions.”
    • “The absence of in-game purchases is refreshing and keeps the focus on gameplay rather than spending money.”
    • “The DLC is a total cash grab.”
    • “It feels like a cash grab on the anime's name.”
    • “Microtransactions: none.”
  • character development
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    While the game's story mode features impressive graphics and character designs, many users feel that the character development is lacking, detracting from the overall experience.

    • “The story mode is great; I very much enjoy the graphics, character designs are spot on, and the voice acting is well done.”
    • “Character designs look fantastic.”
    • “Very poor character development.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's replayability is mixed; while it features a diverse roster of popular characters with unique fighting styles that can create varied gameplay experiences, the offline modes against AI lack depth and the story mode requires prior knowledge of My Hero Academia to fully appreciate. Additionally, the absence of English voice options may deter some players from revisiting the game.

    • “A lot of the most popular characters are playable, some of them with very different fighting styles (e.g. Kaminari is really hard to fight with a close-range character like the speedy Iida Tenya due to Kaminari's ability to set up stun traps and whatnot).”
    • “Story, campaign presentation, and localization contribute to the replay value and longevity of the game.”
    • “The game lacks significant replay value, as once you've completed the story, there's little incentive to return.”
    • “While the characters are diverse, the overall gameplay experience doesn't change much after the first playthrough.”
    • “After finishing the campaign, I found myself not wanting to replay it due to the repetitive nature of the missions.”
  • atmosphere
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's visuals and atmosphere are highly praised, creating an engaging experience that enhances the enjoyment of utilizing a diverse range of abilities.

    • “The game's visuals and atmosphere are a blast, making it great fun to wield the expansive variety of abilities.”
