Our take
My Hero Academia: You're Next puts student heroes against a fortress and a fake All Might. Expect superpowered fights, talk of killing, and a girl used as a pawn. Language is milder than Western R films. Fine for 13+ who already watch the show. Younger fans may find the war tone heavier than TV episodes
Uplifting themes
Friends keep showing up for each other when the symbol of peace is gone

Talk after watching
- Kids are asked to be symbols of peace. What does that cost them?
- A girl is treated as a prize in a fight. Why is that a line?
- Heroes and villains both wreck towns. Who is the film asking you to trust?
