My Hero Academia: Two Heroes (

Toshinori Yagi / All Might
in visiting his old friend at I-Island when Villains attack the artificial moving island.

A film of the franchise was announced in December 2017, with Nagasaki, Kuroda, and Yoshihiko Umakoshi confirming a few days later their return from My Hero Academia anime television series to direct the film, write the script, and design the characters, respectively. Original characters in the film were announced in April and June 2018.

My Hero Academia: Two Heroes premiered in Los Angeles on July 5, 2018, and was released in Japan on August 3, with a limited release in the United States and Canada from September 25 to October 2. The film grossed $33.4 million worldwide with positive reviews from critics. It won the

(2021). A fourth film, titled My Hero Academia: You're Next, is set to be released on August 2, 2024.

Plot

In the past, a young

All Might, while as an exchange student in California, deals with a group of villains who have robbed a casino. He is aided by his classmate and friend, David Shield
, who eventually becomes a scientist and works with him to design many of his suits.

In the present, All Might brings Izuku Midoriya with him to I-Island, a floating city island, in response to an invitation from David's daughter, Melissa, to surprise her father. During their reunion, David runs a test with All Might and learns that his Quirk is nearly depleted, becoming horrified as he believes that All Might will no longer be able to fulfill his role as the Symbol of Peace. Meanwhile, Melissa shows Midoriya around the island, and unexpectedly encounter Midoriya's classmates from Class 1-A, who have all been invited to the island for various reasons. After enjoying the island's events, Melissa invites them to a formal party being held with all the heroes present. Prior to the party, Melissa confesses to Midoriya that she is Quirkless, a revelation that astonishes him due to him also originally being Quirkless. She then presents him with a "Full Gauntlet," a mechanical arm device that enables him to harness the full potential of his Quirk without suffering any harm.

Meanwhile, Wolfram, a terrorist villain who had secretly arrived on the island, takes control of the island's security system during the party and threatens to kill its residents. He restrains all of the attending heroes, including All Might, and takes David and his assistant, Samuel Abraham, hostage to break into the island's vault. Midoriya, Melissa, and some of Class 1-A at the party manage to evade the attackers, and they decide to save the hostages by reaching the top of the building and deactivating the security system. Discovering their presence, Wolfram deploys enemy forces to stop them, forcing the group to be split up as they deal with the villains and security bots. Eventually, Midoriya and Melissa are the only ones left who manage to climb to the top.

At the top of the tower, they discover that David and Samuel orchestrated the night's events. They had hired fake villains to cause a distraction in order to retrieve their greatest invention – a headset that maximizes the power of a person's Quirk – which had been confiscated and sealed away by the project's sponsors. David wishes to give it to All Might so that he can maintain his role as the Symbol of Peace. However, Wolfram arrives and reveals that he is a real villain, hired by Samuel to retrieve the headset for himself. He steals it and attempts to kill Samuel and Melissa, but David and Midoriya save them. Wolfram holds off Midoriya, kidnaps David, and escapes to the rooftop. Midoriya fails to prevent Wolfram from taking off in a helicopter with David, but Melissa takes control of the security system and frees the heroes. All Might reaches the roof and stops the helicopter from escaping.

Wolfram then uses the Quirk Amplification Device to amplify his power, creating a giant metal body with David trapped inside. He overpowers All Might and reveals that he'd also been given an additional Quirk by All Might's arch-nemesis,

All For One
, who wanted to be involved to demoralize All Might. With All Might lacking the strength to defeat Wolfram alone, Midoriya comes in to aid him. The rest of the students soon arrive to assist in their fight. All Might and Midoriya combine their One For All's to defeat Wolfram and free David. As the students celebrate their victory, All Might and David reflects on people such as Melissa and Midoriya becoming the next generation of heroes and how the world will be in safer hands even after All Might's Quirk is gone.

Nick Creamer of Anime News Network graded the film "A−", lauding Horikoshi for his involvement in the film's development to "[capture] the tone and worldview of [his] world" and the film's delivery of the "strong action and character of its source material"; and feeling impactful on its theme of "heroism as a force that inspires others in terms of generational inheritance".[70] Cold Cobra of Anime UK News scored the film 9 out of 10, praising its "beautiful and fluid" animation and "jaw-dropping" final action sequence.
