The idea of a movie got fans excited, but with the television anime airing concurrently, fans are hoping the film will stay true to the manga and not have a completely original story. Some are speculating that the movie could provide hints for future events in the TV anime.
On the other hand, some fans are worried about the quality of the TV anime due to the focus on the movie by Studio Bones. The anime's sixth season received a lot of criticism, leading to concerns that history could repeat itself.
Finally, fans of the anime from around the world are convinced that the movie will not be released in their country until 2025. Consequently, they are saddened by the prospect of not being able to watch the film on the manga's tenth anniversary.
Editor's P/S
As a passionate fan of My Hero Academia, I am thrilled about the announcement of the fourth movie scheduled for Summer 2024. The franchise has consistently delivered high-quality content, and I have no doubt that the upcoming movie will be equally amazing. The visual featuring Deku and All Might hints at an exciting storyline that aligns with the series' timeline, and I can't wait to see how it unfolds. However, I share the concerns of some fans regarding the potential impact on the quality of the television anime. The sixth season received criticism, and I hope Studio Bones will strike a balance between the movie and the ongoing series to ensure both maintain their excellence.
The news of the movie's release in Summer 2024 also brings a bittersweet feeling for international fans like myself. While I understand the complexities of global distribution, it is disheartening to think that we may have to wait until 2025 to watch the movie in our respective countries. Nevertheless, I remain optimistic that the wait will be worth it, and I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to experience the fourth My Hero Academia movie on the big screen.
