The film’s official web site has a short explanation of the plot involving the group Humarize as they attempt to eradicate any “individuals” (likely people with quirks) as they see fit. A specially formed “World Selection Hero Team” comprised of professional heroes from around the globe extends invites to the likes of of Izuku “Deku” Midoriya, Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo to stop Humarize from carrying out their scheme.

Japanese rock band Asian Kung-Fu Generation performs the song “Empathy” which is played in the film.

  1. Hey just saw kurogiri’s flames and it just reminded me of the flames Deku had around him the first time he was in the “other” world with all for one and the other users of one for all. Who is to say that kurogi’s flames are not the quirk link between the real world and the “other” world where Kurogiri’s consciousness really is?
