My Hero One's Justice is a competent brawler that makes effective use of its source material to craft something fans will most likely adore.
My Hero: One's Justice makes up for its lack of depth and emotion by simply being fun to play.
My Hero One's Justice is a solid start for My Hero Academia's fighting game franchise that's accessible to players of all skill levels. While it leans more toward the simpler side of fighting games, it still has a good amount of tools to reward more technical players who master its timed blocks, counters and unblockable attacks. It can use some balance tweaks and online connectivity can be improved. Fun and easy-to-pick-up gameplay, however, combined with excellent character designs that capture the look and feel of the source material make this a nice fighter for Academia nuts.
My Hero One's Justice fails to live up to the series's motto: You may get a "Plus Ultra" finisher, but your skill level will never "Go Beyond" the game's rudimentary requirements.
Fast-paced, fast and accessible gameplay.

If there's one fault My Hero One's Justice has it's a lack of ambition, to really try and go for something inventive and new, like its anime counterpart. Still, if you're jonesing for more My Hero Academia, this will see you through the wait until Season 4.
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.
My Hero One's Justice leaves room for improvement, but gives us a decent foundation to expand the world of My Hero Academia for future games.
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.
When it comes down to it, My Hero One's Justice is filled with a decent amount of content and some really pretty visual effects, but also lacks longevity in other areas: the roster is a bit small, battles mainly consist of button-mashing and dashing, and the network battle is especially unpolished, leaving no option to train or play other modes while waiting for a match.
My Hero One's Justice is packed with things to do and looks good while doing them. The battles themselves are fun and frenetic with the characters playing well against each other. This is probably the best arena battle game to date from any anime. Plus Ultra.
This anime-styled fighter goes plus ultra for fans of the My Hero Academia franchise, but its lackluster single-player content feels phoned in.
Other than the barrier to entry for the My Hero Academia series, My Hero: One’s Justice is a great looking game with some fun fighting. If you are a fan of the anime or manga, then this game will be an absolute treat for you.
If you enjoy the anime and or manga and if you’re looking for a fairly decent arena fighter to jump in to, I think you’ll find a lot to enjoy with My Hero One’s Justice. Just make sure you’re not expecting EVO level fighting or mechanics.
All in all, My Hero's One Justice is a fun experience for fans, but that's about its limit. It's faithful to the source material almost to a fault, and it does a great job of including little touches and inside jokes that make it clear that a lot of love for the franchise was included in the game. As a game on its own merits, though, it is thoroughly average. The unbalanced gameplay feels appropriate for the franchise, but it can also lead to it not being very fun for head-to-head play. If you're a big fan of the "My Hero Academia" anime and manga, you'll get your money's worth from this game, but anyone else should wait for a price drop.
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.

If you’re a fan of My Hero Academia, I still highly recommend this game, and if you’re not, this one might change your mind, if the tiniest bit. After all, what game doesn’t have its quirks?
If you aren't already attached to the students of U.A., this game probably won't be changing that any time soon.
