In the second feature length film based on popular “My Hero Academia” Japanese manga by Kōhei Horioshi, the young high school heroes of Class 1-A get a chance to take charge of hero work on a small island named Nabu. Even those unfamiliar with the series, are likely to find this film pretty entertaining with valuable lessons to learn from it.
Nabu Island is so peaceful that it feels like a vacation for the kids… until they're attacked by a villain with an unfathomable Quirk! The world of this manga anime is filled with people having special Quirks akin to superpowers.
The main character, Izuku Midoriya/Deku has always wanted to become a hero, but he believes he was born without a quirk and gets easily bullied by Katsuki Bakugō. Both of them idolize the professional hero All Might, a skinny, haggard looking guy whose one quirk transforms him into a muscle bound hulk. Both Midoriya and Bakugō enter U.A. High School as members of Class 1-A, training to be heroes.
The villain, Nine’s power is eerily powerful. Deku and his fellow classmates from Hero Academy, have the onerous task of vanquishing the strongest villain yet.
Heroes Rising is pretty radical in it’s approach to presenting human aptitude and talent. The Quirks each character has relates to unique talents each creation is entrusted with. This feature length narrative delivers exactly what any My Hero Academia fan expects. The film is a stirring, emotion charged actioner that has a fair bit of humour and drama. Fuelled by interesting characters and realistic transformations, this second outing in the franchise series also delivers a pulse-pounding climax. The nerd versus Bully construct develops into a more meaningful exchange following Nine’s supercharged entry. Midoriya and his rival, Bakugo have to set aside their differences in order to team up and save the day. Todoroki, Uraraka, Iida, and other characters also assist in the battles. Their involvement is presented in a unique and visually intriguing fashion. Heroes Rising has very good animation. The action sequences have punch, Colours are imaginatively used, and Quirks are conveyed in a dramatic fashion. The traditional 2D hand drawn animation combines sporadically with CGI to present a complex, layered, rich texture of excitement and entertainment.
Deku’s desire to give something back to the world makes his journey from nerd to hero, a joy to behold. Everyone's got a purpose and a talent in Heroes Rising and how they develop it and put it to use to benefit the world makes all the difference.
