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.
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.
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.

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.
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.

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 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.

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.
This anime-styled fighter goes plus ultra for fans of the My Hero Academia franchise, but its lackluster single-player content feels phoned in.
While My Hero One's Justice is a commendable first step into the world of My Hero Academia, there isn't enough meat on the bones to keep you playing for more than a few hours. The game is decent enough, but never quite reaches the Plus Ultra levels of its TV counterpart.
At the end of the day, those expecting a game to be on the caliber of “All Might”, might get a game that is actually more “all right”.
My Hero One's Justice combines great visuals and attention to each characters’ Quirks and fighting style with a slapdash story mode and English presentation that will leave this one only for fans to really enjoy.
Bandai-Namco hasn't deviated from their formula of arena fighters that follow strict, already told storylines, with simplistic gameplay mechanics that are hidden under flashy animations and combo counters. While there is much to love about the character designs and reliving some vital moments from the anime series fans have come to love, there just isn't that much substance to hold players captivated for any extended period of time. The animations are impressive, the sound and feel of the menus and characters rings true. Unfortunately there just isn't enough unique content that will entrance players to continue playing after the novelty has worn off.
Even the My Hero One's Justice has a fun gameplay mechanics, It doesn't add anyting new on the fighting game genre. Also, the character designs are great.

My Hero One's Justice captures the feeling of superpowered heroes and villains fighting against one another in destructive arena battles but doesn't do justice to My Hero Academia's story.
My Hero One's Justice takes the essence of the source material and wraps it into an enjoyable package. This is by no means the definitive "My Hero Academia" experience a fan might have been hoping for, but it's still a fun one.
My Hero One's Justice is a perfectly adequate fighting game, and a good adaptation of its source material - but it's not much more than that. It provides a great opportunity to play as some much loved (and hated) characters, showcasing the variety of powers each has on offer while being a fun, engaging, and challenging anime-based title, but it's not quite the heroic effort that we were hoping for.
While My Hero One's Justice certainly looks the part - with all the crash, bang and wallop you'd expect from a game based on such an outlandish anime - it proves to be more style over substance. If the likes of Blade Strangers and SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy have got you in the mood for easy-to-pick-up fighters, this title will easily fit that mould, but for everyone else, it's a disappointing use of a franchise brimming with quirky (no pun intended) potential.
My Hero One's Justice may be a faithful and stylish adaptation of the hit anime series, but all the fancy graphics in the world can't do justice to a game whose kryptonite is a severe lack of real substance.
