This week, Hovin is joined by KastorUK as we talk about the MHA movies, Heroes Rising in particular, and use that as a jumping off point to talk about the various shonen battle franchise tie-in movies we've gotten over the years, which ones we feel hold up, which ones don't, and the different approaches of how they do this! Also there are various asides and side-tangents, hoo boy the side tangents...
