Produced by Bones and distributed by Toho, the third film of the franchise is directed by Kenji Nagasaki from a script written by Yōsuke Kuroda and stars Daiki Yamashita, Nobuhiko Okamoto, and Yuki Kaji as part of an ensemble cast. In the film, taking place during the Endeavor Agency arc of the manga, Izuku Midoriya and his classmates join the Pro-Heroes around the world for a mission to stop a terrorist plan that will bring an end to humanity.

A third film was initially teased in November 2020 with a key visual featuring Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki. One week after it was first announced, the film was officially confirmed for a 2021 release. Its full title was revealed in March 2021 along with the announcement of the release date. Horikoshi was credited for the original story in the film and the original characters' designs.

The film premiered in Japan on August 6, 2021, and was released in the United States and Canada on October 29. It received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the animation and plot but criticized the character development. The film grossed over $47 million worldwide and received a nomination at the Newtype Anime Awards. A fourth film, titled My Hero Academia: You're Next, is set to be released on August 2, 2024.

Plot[edit]

A doomsday cult known as Humarise believes that Quirks will eventually become so powerful that they will bring about the extinction of humanity. Because of this, they have planted bombs all over the world filled with "Trigger" gas which kills Quirk users by driving their Quirks out of control and dying in the process. Their leader, Flect Turn, plans to use these bombs to save humanity by killing the Quirk population.

After Humarise detonates its first Trigger Bomb, the World Heroes Association dispatches Pro Heroes and U.A. High Hero Course students to Humarise's targets in hopes of disarming the remaining bombs. Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki are among those sent to Humarise's supposed main headquarters in the country of Otheon. None of the Heroes find any trace of Humarise and they are put on standby. During an outing, Izuku, Katsuki, and Shoto encounter a jewel robbery in progress. Shoto and Katsuki pursue the thieves while Izuku gives chase to their courier Rody Soul, a street urchin who took the job to provide for his younger siblings.

Meanwhile, Alan Kay, a Humarise scientist, flees with an important briefcase but is attacked by a Humarise agent, Beros, and he crashes his car in the midst of Izuku and Rody's chase. Rody accidentally grabs Kay's briefcase shortly before Izuku catches him. They are soon attacked by the police, but Izuku escapes with Rody using Blackwhip. Izuku is publicly accused of mass murder by Otheon's chief of police, who is a member of Humarise, and goes off the grid per Shoto's advice. Izuku and Rody make their way to the neighboring country of Klayd, where the Otheon police will not have jurisdiction. Izuku sends a coded message about his new destination to Shoto, who heads off with Katsuki to join him there.

That night, Rody becomes homesick and secretly reports the briefcase to the police. The officers that arrive turn out to be Humarise agents, who attack him. Having been woken up by Rody's bird companion Pino, Izuku saves him, but is wounded by Beros during the fight. Rody apologizes to Izuku while patching him up, explaining how his father abandoned the family to join Humarise, and that he and his siblings were ostracized as a result. The two are attacked at the Klayd border by Beros, but are saved by Katsuki and Shoto, while Beros commits suicide in order to evade capture.

Later, Izuku discovers a hidden compartment in the briefcase containing a puzzle which Rody played with as a kid. Rody solves it and finds a USB device and a data disk inside. The disk contains a message from Kay, who reveals that he and Eddie Soul, Rody's father, were forced by Humarise to create the Trigger bombs; the device contains a kill code for the bombs created by Kay and Eddie. Humarise announces that they will detonate their remaining bombs in two hours, forcing the deployed Heroes to scramble in defense to find them and fight the Humarise soldiers. Izuku and the others head to Humarise's headquarters with the device on a plane piloted by Rody.

Katsuki and Shoto deal with high-ranking Humarise villains, while Izuku faces Flect Turn, whose Quirk reflects whatever comes into contact with him. Izuku is overwhelmed by Flect Turn's natural defenses, as well as his laser barrage. Rody arrives and seemingly betrays Izuku by handing over the device in exchange for his siblings' safety. Thanks to Pino, who is actually Rody's sentient Quirk which expresses his true feelings and intentions, Izuku realizes it is a feint and catches Flect Turn off guard. Realizing that Flect Turn's Quirk has a limit to how much damage it can take, Izuku uses One For All at 100%, to defeat Flect Turn with a barrage of attacks.

Meanwhile, Rody heads for the Trigger Bombs' control system, and despite being wounded by the laser defense system, he and Pino barely manage to insert the device in time, preventing the Bombs from activating. In the aftermath, Humarise's surviving members are arrested, while the Heroes are healed at the hospital. As Izuku heads back to Japan, he and Rody bid a tearful goodbye to each other. Class 1-A reunites back at U.A., while Rody gets a job at the local bar, and also pursues his dream of becoming a pilot.

Production[edit]

Before the release of My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising in December 2019, My Hero Academia manga creator Kōhei Horikoshi stated in July that "[probably] there won't be a third film", believing that the second film of the franchise was the "kind of finale for My Hero Academia. That is because its story uses one of the concepts [I] had wanted to use in the manga's final battle."[6] In November 2020, each of the official Twitter accounts for My Hero Academia manga, anime series, and films posted tweets that could be combined to form the sentence "He will meet the three musketeers". Each tweet had links that would lead to images of Katsuki Bakugo, Izuku Midoriya, and Shoto Todoroki which could be combined to form a teaser visual for the third film of the franchise.[7] After a week, the latest issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine officially confirmed the film for a summer release.[8]

In March 2021, the title of the film was revealed as My Hero Academia the Movie: World Heroes' Mission, which would be based on an original story, with Horikoshi serving as its chief supervisor and the original character designer. Additionally, Kenji Nagasaki was also revealed to be directing the film at Bones along with Yousuke Kuroda as the screenwriter and Yoshihiko Umakoshi as the character designer.[9] The designs for "stealth suit" outfits of Midoriya, Bakugo, and Todoroki in the film were revealed in May 2021.[10]

Ryo Yoshizawa joined the cast of the film as the original character named Rody Soul in May 2021,[11] as did Kazuya Nakai and Megumi Hayashibara in June as the leader of an organization that threatens the world named Flect Turn and the trusted partner of Rody named Pino, respectively.[12][13] Additional cast for the film were revealed in July 2021, including Mariya Ise as Beros, Junya Enoki as Sir Pentas, Yūichirō Umehara as Shidero, Shogo Sakata as Leviathan, Hirofumi Nojima as Allen Kay, and Yōko Honna as Claire Voyance.[14]

Critical response[edit]

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 87% based on 30 reviews, with an average rating of 7.1/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "Fun for newcomers and existing fans alike, My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission is an entertaining interlude between seasons of the series."[59] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 51 out of 100 based on 4 critic reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[60] Cinema Today reported that the film's audience had more females than the targeted male demographic, comprising 76.5%.[61]

Rafael Motamayor gave My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission 8 out of 10 for IGN, praising its visuals that "out-Marvels the [Marvel Cinematic Universe]" and the villains' motives that he noted were inspired by the graphic novel X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills. He felt that the film "captures the heart of early Stan Lee and Steve Ditko Spider-Man comics", particularly the "grounded approach" to Deku with his newfound power and its "sheer optimism in the face of great stakes".[62] Hayes Madsen of ComingSoon.net also gave the film 8 out of 10, noting the "bigger emphasis on exaggerated expressions for characters and action scenes". He praised its "sense of scale and gravitas that the past two films simply didn't have" due to the expanding world of the franchise but felt that the villain's development was "lacking".[63]

Richard Eisenbeis of Anime News Network graded the film "C+", praising its animation and plot hook while criticizing the characters and their development.[64] Writing for /Film, Caroline Cao felt that the film was "solid enough in its watchability, crowdpleasing action, sight gags, and core relationship" but criticized its lack of scope. Despite noting Deku's shiny relationship with Rody, she found the film did "little overtly novel with Deku's drive to become a Hero".[65]

Maya Phillips of The New York Times was critical of the film, particularly its "rapid cuts and camera shifts [that] makes it dizzying to witness", the characters being ignored "for the sake of a formulaic plot and forgettable antagonist", and the final fight she described as "long and... perfunctory". She felt that the film was a "missable third film" of the franchise and had "little to offer veteran fans of the series or new viewers".[66] Richard Whittaker of The Austin Chronicle gave the film two out of five stars, stating that it "never quite balances the darkness with the inherent plucky optimism and sporadic goofiness that makes the series so popular". He felt that World Heroes Mission would work better if it was a television series rather than a film "since the last 40 minutes is one big punch-a-thon, with most of the supporting cast yet again busy offscreen".[67]

Accolades[edit]

In December 2021, My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission was among the Top 100 Favorites nominated for the Anime of the Year at the Tokyo Anime Award Festival 2022.[68] In October 2022, the film was nominated for Best Picture (Film) Award at the Newtype Anime Awards.[69] In December 2022, the film was placed first on U-NEXT's "The Best 10 Most Popular Works in 2022" list for Anime Rental category.[70]

Sequel[edit]

A fourth anime film, titled My Hero Academia: You're Next, is set to premiere in Japan on August 2, 2024.[71] Tensai Okamura will serve as the director, Kuroda writing the script, Umakoshi designing the characters, and Horikoshi serving as its general supervisor and original character designer.[71]
