Synopsis

My Hero Academia: Rise of the Heroes follows the same heroes-in-training of Class A, including Deku, Bakugo, Ochako, and Todoroki from the My Hero Academia TV series, and introduces a new villain named Nine who appears to be similar to All Might's main enemy, All for One, but even stronger. The story is one that creator Kohei Horikoshi wanted to include as part of the TV series' final battle, and he has stated that it will be more "Plus Ultra" than the first film.
