For Newbies And Die-Hard Fans Alike, My Hero Academia: All’s Justice Is A Great Deep-Dive Into The Series

by

I have to admit, I never got around to watching or reading My Hero Academia despite knowing I’d probably love it. It combines the exciting, fast-paced action of series like Dragon Ball and One Piece with the superhero theme I’ve always enjoyed. I kept delaying it, hoping to binge the whole thing once it finished. But now, after playing My Hero Academia: All’s Justice, I’m really motivated to finally dive in.

ComicBook recently had a chance to play an early version of My Hero Academia: All’s Justice. The game successfully captures the exciting action and vibrant style of the popular anime and manga series. With solid gameplay and a comprehensive retelling of the story – without getting bogged down in details – All’s Justice is enjoyable for both longtime fans and newcomers.

Combat Is Key In My Hero Academia: All’s Justice

Combat is central to My Hero Academia: All’s Justice, and thankfully, the fighting mechanics are solid. We previewed the game’s Story Mode, explored the city with Team Up Missions, learned more about the heroes through Hero’s Diary, and tried out 1v1 battles. The combat system strikes a good balance between being easy to pick up and offering strategic depth, giving players lots of options while letting them decide how to fight. Each character has a unique set of moves and abilities, but the combat generally focuses on keeping your opponent defensive and using well-timed attacks or dodges to create openings.

As a player, I really loved how open the arenas were. It let you move around a lot and find good spots to hide and attack in the city environments. There was something super satisfying about dodging an enemy’s attack at the last second and then hitting them with a counter they didn’t see coming. And when you really went on the offensive, it felt amazing – trading quick little hits for these big, flashy attacks that really did some damage! The way you moved and fought was just really well done. It felt consistent no matter who I played, but still allowed me to approach battles in my own style.

The characters in All’s Justice feel substantial and grounded, even during fast-paced action like flying or powerful attacks. This weightiness is important for making the combat feel impactful, preventing it from feeling floaty. Although some of the optional side missions had technical issues, the core fighting system is consistently smooth and fun. Whether you’re fighting one-on-one or in larger team battles, the gameplay is very impressive and works seamlessly with the game’s visuals.

Learning To Be A Hero

My Hero Academia: All’s Justice is a game released as the anime nears its end after ten years of popularity. It essentially retells the entire story, from the beginning to the finale. The game shows its love for the series through lots of storytelling, including team-up missions that explore character relationships and a ‘Hero’s Diary’ that reveals new background information. This makes it enjoyable for both longtime fans wanting to relive the adventure and newcomers eager to learn about the world.

For those unfamiliar with My Hero Academia, the side stories are a fantastic way to learn about the world and quickly become invested in the characters. The Team-Up Missions, which involve exploring the city, are also enjoyable, largely due to the focus on character relationships. However, these missions can feel a bit restrictive, and Izuku Midoriya’s movement, while inspired by Spider-Man’s web-swinging, doesn’t quite feel fully realized.

Despite some of the more obscure references going over my head, All’s Justice is genuinely fun to play. The game does a great job of capturing the spirit of the original story, making it easy to get invested. With solid gameplay at its core, My Hero Academia: All’s Justice is an enjoyable experience for both dedicated fans of the series and newcomers alike.
