After three successful anime movies, Deku and his fellow Class 1-A students will return to the big screen in My Hero Academia: You’re Next. However, instead of their archnemesis All For One and his League of Villains, the heroes will face a new enemy: Dark Might. With his resemblance and powers paralleling All Might, the main antagonist looks like a force to be reckoned with. This can easily be seen in the trailer for the fourth anime movie, highlighting Shoto’s intense fight against Dark Might.

As released by the anime’s official website, the new preview for My Hero Academia: You’re Next starts with great action. After All Might points at someone while amid the ruins with the police, a split screen featuring Dark Might and Deku appears.
The fight against the evil version of the former No. 1 Pro Hero begins, and the battle becomes intense as a huge explosion happens. Dark Might begins his attack by wielding his power and trying to fight off Shoto. Of course, Endeavor’s son never backs down and unleashes his fire quirk, and a battle of their incredible powers begins.
A group of what looks like distorted and monstrous knights appears while the Class 1-A students, led by Tenya Iida in his hero suit, prepare to fight. As the incredible clash ensues, Bakugo joins the brawl and lets his quirk loose. Deku also comes rushing to the event. The battle of the quirks continues as Dark Might throws a huge fire at Deku, which he quickly stops with his powerful kick. From there, Shoto, Bakugo, and Deku appear to join forces to bring Dark Might down.
In addition, the anime has also released the character visuals for the Gorrini Family, who will be working with Dark Might against the heroes in My Hero Academia You’re Next. You can see the visuals below.

What is My Hero Academia: You’re Next about?
Taking place after the Paranormal Liberation War, My Hero Academia: You’re Next will see society has lost its trust in the heroes.

You can read the My Hero Academia: You’re Next synopsis below:
In the aftermath of the Paranormal Liberation War, Japan has fallen into societal collapse and chaos, and a mysterious giant fortress suddenly appears, swallowing up cities and people one after another, so Izuku and members of Class 1-A must rise and fight for what remains against the new threat.
The anime movie is based on an original story featuring the characters of Kohei Horikoshi’s manga, My Hero Academia. It is directed by Tensai Okamura, with scripts by Yosuke Kuroda. Toho Animation will distribute the movie, which is produced by Bones. Its ensemble cast includes Daiki Yamashita as Deku, Nobuhiko Okamoto as Bakugo, Yuki Kaji as Shoto, Ayane Sakura as Ochaco Uraraka, Kaito Ishikawa as Tenya Ida, and Kenta Miyake as Dark Might and All Might.
It looks like Dark Might doesn’t only look like All Might. His powers rivaled All Might’s abilities when he was still in his prime, making him a formidable foe. That said, fans are about to witness an overwhelming battle as the heroes seem to be fighting their mentor.
My Hero Academia: You’re Next is set to release on August 2 and will be available in IMAX, MX4D, 4DX, and Dolby Cinema.
