6''My Hero One's Justice'' is a fighting game by Creator/BandaiNamco, in development for the Platform/PS4, Platform/XboxOne, Platform/NintendoSwitch, and PC, based on the Magazine/ShonenJump manga ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia''. It was released on August 23, 2018 in Japan and October 26 in North America. The game features 3D fighting in destructible arenas, with AssistCharacter mechanics allowing to call teammates for backup.
7
8The game's story mode covers the second and third seasons of the anime, starting with Midoriya's training under Gran Torino. A bonus WhatIf scenario can be unlocked, showing the story from the villains' perspective.

10There was also a sequel titled ''My Hero One's Justice 2'' released in 2020. This instalment brings back all of the playable characters from the first game, including those who were [=DLC=], in addition to introducing several new fighters. The game covers the events of the Hero License Exam Arc to the end of the Internship Arc.

77!Tropes
78[[folder:Introduced in ''One's Justice'']]
79!!ROUND 1! READY?! CLASH!
80* AmbidextrousSprite: {{Averted|Trope}}. The portraits of characters with non-symmetrical faces (like Todoroki and Muscular) are different depending on whether they are looking to the left or to the right.
81* AnotherSideAnotherStory: Finishing the story mode unlocks villain mode, which retells the story from the bad guys' perspective.
82* TheArtifact: Yaoyorozu uses her iconic [[MatryoshkaObject explosive matryoshka dolls]] in the game despite the fact that she initially used them only to conceal said explosives and trick Eraser Head during an exam.
83* AssistCharacter: With the "Sidekick" system, other characters can be called in to help. For example, Todoroki can use his powers to freeze opponents in place, or Uraraka can trip them up by canceling their gravity.
84* BareFistedMonk: As a nod to the fact that her internship involved Martial Arts tutelage, Uraraka's basic attacks paint her as this.
85* BeatingADeadPlayer: Muscular's win animation has him [[NeckLift picking up his fallen opponent]] and pummeling them a few times before finally finishing them off.
86* BloodlessCarnage: Despite some characters using bladed weapons, there is no blood. Not even when Stain is using his Quirk, which involves LickingTheBlade to ingest his opponent's blood.
87* {{Bowdlerise}}: Stain's "Bloodcurdle" Quirk is completely bloodless (outside of the animation for one of his super attacks) likely due to the game [[BloodlessCarnage not displaying a single drop of blood]] for it to have a family friendly rating. Thus Stain comes off as mostly just a MasterSwordsman, and though he is occasionally seen LickingTheBlade to activate his quirk via certain moves, it stays completely clean.
88* CameraAbuse: Shigaraki's intro and super move has him petrify and crumble his opponent, which is shown from a [[POVCam first-person perspective]] as the camera itself cracking apart.
89* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: While a good portion of Class 1-A is playable, almost half of it is not in the game outside of quick cameos[[note]][[EnergyWeapon Yuga Aoyama]], [[{{Invisibility}} Toru Hagakure]], [[MultiArmedAndDangerous Mezo Shoji]], [[StickySituation Minoru Mineta]], [[DuctTapeForEverything Hanta Sero]], [[HollywoodAcid Mina Ashido]], [[PrehensileTail Mashirao Ojiro]], [[SpeaksFluentAnimal Koji Kouda]], [[GRatedDrug Rikido Sato]][[/note]]. This is especially true for Mineta (though him being a particularly disliked character may have something to do with it) and Aoyama (who actually gets more development in the manga and even becomes one of Deku's close friends) who were playable in the 3DS game ''Battle for All''. And [[OvershadowedByAwesome (as usual)]] 1-B has absolutely no playable representation.
90* CloseRangeCombatant: The majority of fighters are these, particularly Shoot Style Izuku and Kirishima, who don't have any projectile attacks whatsoever.
91* ClothingDamage: When Midoriya uses his long-ranged Delaware Smash attack, his right sleeve gets torn to pieces. His middle finger also becomes bruised.
92* DecompositeCharacter: Izuku has two versions available for play. His base version, which utilizes Delaware Smashes and other bone-breaking attacks in addition to regular Full Cowl Punches, and his Shoot Style version, which focuses on closing the distance fast and nailing long strings of melee combos.
93* DistantReactionShot: All Might's super move ends with a shot of the Earth, centered over Japan, showing that the force of the final blow is strong enough to blow away all the clouds over the country.
94* DittoFighter: One of Toga's moves allows her to transform into her opponent.
95* ExtremityExtremist: Shoot Style Izuku fights almost exclusively with kicks, though he'll throw the occasional slug in and will slam people into the ground.
96* FourIsDeath: If Shigaraki connects his special move four times, the victim dies instantly. With each hit, a pop-up appears displaying the number of hits, until the fourth one which reads "DEAD!"
97* GameplayAndStorySegregation: For balance purposes, some abilities work differently than in canon.
98** Shigaraki needs to hit an opponent four times to kill them rather than just once.
99** Toga can fully copy her opponent's equipment and Quirk. In canon, she can only imitate their appearance. [[spoiler:Or at least that's what the story at the time led us to believe]]
100** Despite the game taking place right before the "Provisional Hero License Exam Arc", several characters use special moves only acquired after the MidSeasonUpgrade and despite the fact that aren't wearing the equipment allowing that (for examples Kyoka using GroundWave attacks or Kaminari having [[LightningGun long-range electricity]] attack).
101** Stain can't [[TheParalyzer paralyse]] his opponents. In fact he never uses his Quirk at all as [[BloodlessCarnage the characters don't bleed]].
102** Momo's weapons don't spawn from her skin, instead instantaneously [[SpontaneousWeaponCreation appearing from thin air]]. This is especially noticeable when she summons cannons as [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist an alchemist]] would do.
103* LargeHamAnnouncer: While not playable, [[SuperScream Present Mic]] retains his role from the manga and anime as the announcer.
104* LateArrivalSpoiler: The first game spoils a few things that were not shown in the anime at the time of their announcement, such as that Toga has the ability to shapeshift.
105* MeteorMove: Shoot Style Izuku can kick his opponent into the air before sending them into the ground with another kick. Using the same attack in the air will have him grab them and slam them in face first.
106* OverlyLongFightingAnimation: Certain super moves; for example, Dabi's is over 20 seconds long.
107* PromotedToPlayable: Several characters who were only available as {{Assist Character}}s in the previous game ''Battle for All'' on Nintendo 3DS are now fully playable, such as Tokoyami and Aizawa.
108* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: Expect a lot of this from every character in the game.
109* RingOut: Knocking the opponent out of bounds instantly wins the round. This is only possible on certain stages like the Sports Festival arena.
110* SceneryGorn: Battlefields get torn up over the course of the fights. One stage, the area of Camino Ward where All Might and All For One fight, is already in ruins from the start.
111* SlideAttack: Izuku's Shoot Style version has a sliding kick that deals multiple hits and can easily combo into other attacks. There's a great deal of ending lag, so actually landing it is crucial.
112* SkillGateCharacters: For those not very experienced with the game, fighting Kirishima can be hellish due to his very simple, effective strategies for taking down opponents and easy invulnerability, but his poor speed and lack of projectiles leave him much less of a problem for better players unless they happen to have someone with no choice but to get directly in his range.
113* SpinAttack:
114** One of Ochaco's attacks has her spinning a large pillar around to hit her opponent over and over.
115** Shoot Style Izuku's kit is full of this, with almost all of his attacks including some sort of spinning kick.
116* SpinningPiledriver: One of All Might's moves.
117* TacticalRockPaperScissors: The basic attacks can be broken down into "Normal" attacks, "Counter Attacks", and "Unblockable Attacks". Normal attacks are fast enough to bash through Unblockable Attacks, Counter Attacks will absorb Normal Attacks and hit back to break their combo, and Unblockable Attacks will smash through opposing Counter Attacks without giving a chance to retaliate.
118* UnsoundEffect: Some attacks have these, such as the "PIN" that pops up right as Bakugo fires his Stun Grenade, or the "JACK!!" produced by Jiro plugging her earphone jacks into something.
119* VirtualPaperDoll: Characters can be customized with various accessories, including equipping them with another hero's mask or having Mineta holding on to them.
120* WallRun: Battles aren't just confined to the floor: characters can also run and fight along the walls of the battlegrounds.

124[[folder:Introduced in ''One's Justice 2'']]
125!!ROUND 2! READY?! CLASH!
126* AdaptationExpansion:
127** Both sides of the story mode enjoy inserting fights against thugs or yakuza thugs, though most of these have flimsy reasons for even happening. While spying on a Shie Hassaikai member, Sir Nighteye accidentally bumps shoulders with a common thug. The dialogue doesn't reflect the fact either of them is going to punch the other.
128** U.A. High, for some reason, employs "Faux Villains" to help train students (as an excuse to insert battles for the game during their training). Said Faux Villains turn out to be freaking ''Nomu''.
129** At the end of the hero side, [[spoiler:Sir Nighteye shows a vision of the future when Eri will smile again,]] though it's left unclear precisely when.
130** Near the end of the Villain side, instead of [[spoiler:being tied to a bed and helpless to act, Overhaul releases himself from his bounded state and fights Tomura one last time before the story resumes with him losing his Quirk factor.]]
131* AssKicksYou: The penultimate blow of Mineta's super is one of these.
132* AssistCharacter: La Brava serves as this for Gentle's moveset, giving him the ability to use his Plus Ultra moves. Unlike sidekicks, however, as long as Gentle is fighting directly, she will appear on the battlefield, following him.
133* {{Bowdlerise}}: Midnight's Hero outfit gets reworked so that the black leotard covers her breasts completely. Her 2D character art drops the outfit altogether and has her wear office clothes.
134* CameraAbuse: Sir Nighteye's intro animation has him chuck one of his stamp seals at the camera, breaking it.
135* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: While it's rectified a bit since Mina and Mineta are now playable in the base roster and Aoyama was added through DLC, there's still a sizable chunk of Class 1-A missing from the roster. And, [[OvershadowedByAwesome of course]], Class 1-B is completely absent from the base again, though Kendo and Tetsutetsu are {{downloadable|Content}} fighters at least.
136* CompressedAdaptation: Several examples:
137** Certain fights that had unique characters are entirely replaced with either common thugs or yakuza thugs.
138** Some fights even lack key characters. Rappa doesn't have Hekiji Tengai to support him during his fight (though he only shows during one shot when Rappa is overwhelmed by Fat Gum). Most egregiously, Amajiki fights a regular yakuza thug when he should be fighting the Garbage Trio (the game even tries hard to make it sound like he really is fighting three enemies at once, but not even the yakuza thug has one single sidekick).
139* DecompositeCharacter:
140** Izuku, in addition to his base version and Shoot Style version, gains another playable variant, "Full Cowling: 100%", based on the abilities he has at the end of the Internship Arc.
141** Shigaraki also gains a new playable variant, "Awakened Quirk Edition". While his base version is based on his abilities and character from the first section of the Manga, his Awakened variant is based on his abilities and character post-Meta Liberation Army Arc.
142** Overhaul is also split into two playable variants, being his base version, which incorporates his basic abilities, and his "Ver. 2" variant, in which he's fused with Shin Nemoto.
143* GrievousHarmWithABody: Bakugou's Plus Ultra All attack with Kirishima and Kaminari is unique in the fact that instead of the trio attacking all at once like with the others but rather, Bakugou chucks Kirishima and Kaminari at the opponent as projectiles before attacking himself.
144* OutOfCharacterMoment: Certain characters are a ''bit'' passionate about the clothes they can wear. Tokoyami in particular expresses outright passion to dance when wearing tuxedos.
145* PragmaticAdaptation: Ochaco realizes earlier that [[spoiler:her feelings for Deku should be postponed so she doesn't get in the way of his dream]] instead of realizing that during the Provisional Hero License arc.
146* PromotedToPlayable: While there are several characters that weren't playable in the first game that are in the second, Mineta, Mr. Compress, and Nomu are notable, as they all appeared in ''One's Justice'' in one way or another (Mr. Compress in a cutscene, Nomu as an NPC fighter, Mineta as a [[ItMakesSenseInContext cosmetic clothing option]]) but weren't made playable until ''One's Justice 2''.
147* SecretCharacter: Overhaul Ver. 2 and Deku Full Cowling: 100% are the only characters that aren't part of the starting roster, as they need to be unlocked via Story Mode. Preordering the game unlocks them earlier, however.
148* StuffBlowingUp: This happens in Mei's Plus Ultra 1 and Plus Ultra 2 attacks with the former having her lob a bomb at her opponent while the latter is due to her attempting to do the same again only for the bomb to detonate prematurely in her hands, damaging the opponent while Mei only gets [[AshFace a little soot on her face]].
149* UnsoundEffect: Several more this time around; for example, Mirio's super has "Invincible" pop up as his enemy passes through him while attempting to hit him, and Full Cowling 100% Midoriya gets "Full Cowl" as he's powering up at the start of his super.
150* WhatIf: Arcade Mode has every single fighter have special conversations with other specific characters that either side otherwise never interacted with in the manga (at least up until Season 4).
