The story of My Hero Academia Movie 4: You’re Next occurs after the pivotal events of the television anime’s third season. Following All Might’s triumphant battle against All For One, the Symbol of Peace, unfortunately, lost his powers, marking a significant turning point in the narrative. Immediately after the battle, All Might’s cryptic words, “You’re Next,” directed at Deku, signaled the end of his era. However, the vague statement was so open to interpretation that it prompted Dark Might to jump into action.

Following the events of the Paranormal Liberation War storyline, Japan descends into chaos as society collapses. Amidst all this, a strange, enormous fortress emerges, engulfing entire cities and sending individuals disappearing one by one. To combat the new menace and keep others from dying, Izuku and his classmates in Class 1-A must team up with the other heroes and heroes-in-training.
