My Hero One's Justice Reviews
This anime-styled fighter goes plus ultra for fans of the My Hero Academia franchise, but its lackluster single-player content feels phoned in.
My Hero One's Justice isn't a bad game; it just doesn't do anything to stand out. Combat is okay for the genre, with the ability to destroy/knock people into buildings being fun, it just isn't enough to sell it. Combine that with poor load times and rather short story and it's a fairly hard sell, even to fans. That being said, if you're a die hard My Hero Academia fan or just really enjoy simple fighters and this isn't enough to discourage you, there is enough to still have fun.
My hero one's justice is a frantic fighting game specially designed for fans of the franchise. Broadly speaking, it is a very superficial game. With online mode being the most entertainment and starting hours it can offer.

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 is the first official video game adaptation of My Hero Academia anime which has a quite poor single player mode. The main focus of the devs were on the multiplayer side and it somehow has paid off in the end but the lack of character creation is easily sensed.

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.
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.
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.
If you like fighting games My Hero One's Justice is a fun game to play. A dissapointment however is the fact the game isn't a good entry to the series and is mostly directed towards fans of the show.

My Hero One's Justice of correct game, generous in content, and worthy when adapting the original material.

My Hero One’s Justice is a conundrum. The game has some great, fun, fast paced gameplay even though it’s rather one dimensional with button bashing. It has an excellent cast of characters and fans of the anime and manga franchise will love it. However, there’s just too much that’s gone wrong with a formula that worked so well for Bandai Namco’s other major shounen game series. Severely handicapping a player’s attack options is not a good choice.
All in all, My Hero's One Justice is a fun experience for fans, but that's about its limit. It's faithful to the source material almost to a fault, and it does a great job of including little touches and inside jokes that make it clear that a lot of love for the franchise was included in the game. As a game on its own merits, though, it is thoroughly average. The unbalanced gameplay feels appropriate for the franchise, but it can also lead to it not being very fun for head-to-head play. If you're a big fan of the "My Hero Academia" anime and manga, you'll get your money's worth from this game, but anyone else should wait for a price drop.
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.
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.
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.
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.
My Hero One’s Justice won’t recruit new people to the franchise, but in terms of anime adaptations, this game is faithful to the source material, and that’s all a fan can really ask for.
My Hero One's Justice is a competent brawler that makes effective use of its source material to craft something fans will most likely adore.
My Hero: One's Justice makes up for its lack of depth and emotion by simply being fun to play.
