Hero Course students to hunt down Humarize\u2019s criminal mastermind and find all the toxin sources before Quirks everywhere are wiped out.<\/p>\n<p>It is here that the film really lives up to the World Heroes part of the title \u2013 with characters sent all over the globe to stop the toxins, resulting in fight scenes of iconic international locations such as the Golden Gate Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>As if that wasn\u2019t enough however, Deku and Rody are framed for a crime they did not commit \u2013 so must save the world while also being pursued by the authorities.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How does the My Hero Academia movie link to the series?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>My Hero Academia: World Heroes\u2019 Misson was released in Japan while season five was still airing, which could easily have caused potential confusion.<\/p>\n<p>However the third My Hero Academia movie tells a mostly self-contained story, introducing a brand new villain and largely ignoring any dangling plot threads from the series \u2013 meaning even those who are not up to date with the show could still enjoy this latest film without fear of spoilers.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly the events of the first two films did not impact the series and indeed have barely even been mentioned since, which at least alleviates the need for a complex watch order akin to the ever-expanding MCU.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not uncommon however for anime films to be set at an indeterminate moment in the show\u2019s timeline, or to have little bearing on the show\u2019s overall plot \u2013 a similar tactic was used previously for many Dragonball and Naruto movies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Hero Academia: World Heroes\u2019 Mission will be released in cinemas on Friday 29th October 2021.
