It's really interesting that this is most likely going to be the last movie, when odds are the manga isn't gonna end anytime soon. I wonder if this is due to the fact that he doesn't foresee the anime getting many more seasons, or if he wants to just focus solely on the manga without having to worry about coming up with scripts and overseeing the work. With how big My Hero is doing, I would presume they are gonna want to continue working on the anime series, and actually have it follow everything accurately cause more money for them. Plus it's still extremely popular and huge. I am a little worried though about the fact that this film is using a story concept he wanted to end the manga with. It's going to be cool to see how he originally wanted the manga to end, but I hope that the new ending he has planned is gonna be different enough where we aren't gonna feel like it's just gonna be the movie in manga form with different characters.

My guess is they're planning on doing a time skip after this. I don't remember where I heard it but Horikoshi said he wanted to incorporate that into the story since they can't be in 10th grade forever. Also, I'm hoping for some Aizawa and possibly Present Mic screen time. The first movie was great regardless, but seeing the other teachers would be a nice little bonus.

I was hoping for a different look/art direction for the second movie, it looks more of the same which isn't a bad thing per se. I just thought they would be more experimental with the visuals like other shonen and their films.

The villain is from a dark future where he obtained One for All and he's traveled back to the past to get One for All from Deku to power himself up even more and conquer the world.

I seem to recall seeing something along those lines, too. People were wondering why it would be the last MHA movie, but it would make sense if MHA is heading towards a time skip and comes back as MHA: (Insert subtitle) like Naruto and Dragon Ball did. Technically, MHA would have ended, even if the story kept going.

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing something along those lines. Seeing the students as new pros would be cool.

Personally I'm fine if they don't do a ton of filler in movies like other shonen franchises where only less than half of their movies end up being worth watching.
