I think this could be a lot more fun in a theater with a rowdy, Rocky IV like audience full of fans that would really get into it. It felt like the only part that really got away from the TV show's animation was in the ending, and it was all really fun then, but everything before had the same sort of plotting. The show has good characters, let them breathe and interact. Even an episode on Kaminari and Mineta waiting tables and a night on the town at I-Island sounds good to me. It does do a good job at getting to the main theme of the show, that even with superheroes, everything always needs to change and evolve over time, and trying to maintain something for just the sake of the status quo and feeling normal can be as unhelpful as anything else, something the Marvel movies have definitely not learned at all. It was pretty damn exposition heavy at the start too. Not bad for someone who's never seen this show before, but I think it could be too much for them too. It's focus on All Might and Midoriya as well as the new-and-totally-won't-be-forgotten-bc-this-isn't-canon characters call back the show's main dynamic without stepping on the show's toes. It's a good time all said and done.
