Set during the internship of U.A. High School students under pro heroes in Season 5, My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission pits the interns and their mentors against an international organization bent on destroying people with "Quirks" or superpowers. They have two hours to find and defuse bombs scattered across the globe.
The movie is written by acclaimed anime screenwriter Yōsuke Kuroda (Mobile Suit Gundam 00), directed by MHA series helmer Kenji Nagasaki, and likewise produced by the series' animation company Bones. While the story was not adapted from the manga, comics creator Kōhei Horikoshi oversaw the project and designed some of the characters in the movie.
