With "All Might" having lost most of his powers and now taken a back seat, it falls to the students of class 1A of the academy to do the policing of the undesirables in society and use their adaptable array of quirks to deliver these miscreants to the authorities. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, there appears a serious challenge to their regime when "Dark Might" emerges bent of replacing his august predecessor and imposing his own form of rule on a Japan he considers a pale imitation of it's former self. He is not without his own powerful hench-folk, and unwittingly one of those is the powerful "Anna" who can augment and corrupt the powers of others and whilst under an hypnotic spell be used to make this new oppressor nigh on unstoppable. It's down to the determined "Deku" and his new found ally "Giulio" to galvanise his nimble friends and find a way to thwart this monster before his city-sized aerial fort destroys their school, "All Might" and all that they stand for. It's a bit on the long side this, but there's still a solid story of good vs. evil underpinned by plenty of animated combat action, some great smashes - "Manchester" and "Torino" maybe being a little more potent than "Grape Juice" and some effort has been made to imbue the characters with a little more personality as we discover more about who both their nemesis and the manipulated "Anna" actually are. It can be a bit repetitive at times and it has a couple of goes at concluding, but I still quite enjoyed it.Show less
