Overview
Class 1-A visits Nabu Island where they finally get to do some real hero work. The place is so peaceful that it's more like a vacation... until they're attacked by a villain with an unfathomable Quirk! His power is eerily familiar, and it looks like Shigaraki had a hand in the plan. But with All Might retired and citizens' lives on the line, there's no time for questions. Deku and his friends are the next generation of heroes, and they're the island's only hope.

Primary
The film primarily focuses on universal heroic virtues, such as self-sacrifice, justice, and the protection of the vulnerable, against a clear antagonist. Its narrative champions broad moral principles rather than explicitly promoting or critiquing specific political ideologies.
As a Japanese anime, the film's characters are consistent with its cultural origin, and it does not feature explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on heroism and character development, without explicitly critiquing or promoting specific DEI themes related to traditional Western identities.
Secondary

The film features several female characters who participate in combat using their unique superpowers (quirks) against male opponents. However, their victories are achieved through the specific effects of their quirks, such as acid, zero gravity, or sound, rather than through direct physical combat, martial arts, or superior physical strength.
The film features established characters from the My Hero Academia series, all of whom retain their canonical genders. New characters introduced in the movie do not constitute gender swaps.
