The presentation and visuals are on point and nail the aesthetics of My Hero Academia, but the story is poorly told, battles are lackluster with a stupid AI offering next to none challenge. Combat is fantastic with the intense destruction of stages but lacks strategy that undermines its credibility in the long run.

My Hero One’s Justice is a good adaptation from the My Hero Academia Anime and Manga series, However, The game is far from perfect. The Story cannot attract those who are not familiar with the series' story. There are also weird problems with online play specially in the PC version and some technical problems in gameplay and graphic. There is also no English voice acting available. On the other side, the whole combat mechanics are well-implemented and also customization is very diverse. The artistic aspect of graphics of the game and character modelling are also very good. If you like the anime, then you probably will like the game too, but if you don’t know the anime, the story and other parts of the game may seem confusing.

Nonetheless, Bandai Namco now has access to a formula that can be overhauled for years to come. Should sequels never see the light of day, One’s Justice is still excellent comfort food for fans of the series.

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 offers a solid fighting system with fighters that feel distinct from one another, but the underwhelming story mode and weak A.I. makes for a disappointing experience.”

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.

My Hero One's Justice is a good and fun arena fighter and a worthy debut for the popular Shonen Jump series on the PS4, specially when considering the amount of modes and options it has, even if it doesn't bring anything new to genre.

A decent tie-in game, something many anime properties never receive, but ultimately My Hero One's Justice can't live up to the standards set by the likes of the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm releases or even Dragon Ball Xenoverse titles. It's fun and filled with things to keep fans of the series happy, but those looking for a complex and challenging combat system won't find it here.

It's pretty evident that this is just a sample of what's to come from a much improved sequel. This anime-inspired brawler offers stimulating thrills, but is still rough in a few areas.

Overall My Hero One’s Justice is a good first video game entry for the My Hero Academia franchise. While it does require some knowledge of the series to fully enjoy, has a story mode that doesn’t present the same magic as the anime and carries a fairly limited character roster it is fun to play and captures the fast paced chaotic battles of the source material.

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.

My Hero One’s Justice continues to impress the further you dive into it. It’s filled to the brim with content that’ll keep you occupied for hours on end and that’s not even including the online mode. Not to mention that the game just works and works well. Online is simple and streamlined, the gameplay is exhilarating and the visuals are stunning. My Hero One’s Justice is well worth the entry price and more!

My Hero One’s Justice is a fun, flashy game despite some minor flaws, and every My Hero Academia fan should play it. Finishing your opponent with a Plus Ultra never felt so good.

Except for its staging, the story mode of My Hero One’s Justice 2 is completely convincing. Fans in particular get their money's worth in the entertaining battles from the point of view of the heroes and villains. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the rest of the game, which hardly adds value with uninspired content.

My Hero One’s Justice is an incredibley feature-rich tie-in to the popular My Hero Academia manga series. Its take on the anime 3D arena fighter is adorned with explosive battles, though is blemished with technical issues.

My Hero One’s Justice is not perfect. It’s got some flaws it really shouldn’t have. Its story mode is weak, there aren’t as many characters available as I’d have liked, and some ultimates look really lame, but you know what? It’s fun.

I had a lot of fun with My Hero One’s Justice. There’s something about the game’s simplicity that felt refreshing in not needing to completely commit myself into learning the ropes. It’s a fun fighter to take on the go, too, allowing for players to split the Joy-Con for a quick, convenient throwdown. It may not have the most robust features in a fighting game, and there is a lot here that could be improved upon, but, despite this, the easy to learn gameplay system and over-the-top combat results in an entertaining score-settler regardless of whether you’re a fan of the series or not.

Fans of the anime fighter genre of games and of My Hero Academia should really enjoy this game. It has a fun and intense story, great fights, and entertaining music, living up to the high standard that the series has set for it.

My Hero One’s Justice on Xbox One is a darn good fighting game that never ceases to deliver excitement due to the fast-paced nature and the wonderfully creative moves that are in keeping with the My Hero Academia franchise

You know when you purchase your favourite packet of chips from the shops, take them home, and upon opening them, find they’re half filled with air? Well, that’s kind of how My Hero One’s Justice feels. It’s slick as all hell, looks great, and has the elements to be a winner because it has a great foundation backed with solid gameplay. However, it’s also just a bit empty and leaves you with the feeling of wanting more. With some minor tweaks, My Hero One’s Justice could have fallen the other way into a “must have” sort of game. Unfortunately for now, though, you’re going to have to satiate yourself with a couple of tasty handfuls and nibble at the crumbs that dropped onto your shirt.
