Talk:My Hero Academia: Heroes: Rising

Movie Placemment
What arcs or chapters does Heroes: Rising takes place between? Zeref Fullbuster (talk) 02:28, August 1, 2019 (UTC)
 * Non-canonically, it is supposed to take place after both the Joint Training ad the MVA arcs but before both holiday vacations and Endeavor Agency arc, although most of the modified clothes (like Bakugo's "hero" outfit) don't match with that point of the Manga.

Should we move the article to "My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising"?
All official English websites name the movie as My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising instead of Heroes: Rising, and the MHA wiki seems to be the only one so far to title the movie Heroes: Rising, so I was wondering if we should consider moving the article to Heroes Rising?

About how long the students stayed before returning to school
Over various synopsis pages I see that the students stayed around to rebuild Nabu Island for "several weeks" before returning home. Assuming Heroes: Rising takes place sometime during chapter 242 (after Nezu mentioning the Commission's "other program" and before the Christmas party), then the time between the start of Hero Work Recommendation Project and Class 1-A leaving on the ferry should be just a couple of days, as chapter 242 has a time skip to Christmas that says "A few days later", so the students sticking around for several weeks doesn't make much sense. Is there something I'm missing because I'm not sure myself. Spawnermike (talk) 00:35, 22 June 2021 (UTC)Spawnermike


 * I double checked the movie itself, and at least in the English dub, they don't say they stayed for several weeks, they just say they "stayed for the remaining of their scheduled time", which I always assumed meant that they were on Nabu Island for somewhere between 1 and 2 weeks, which would make sense and fit in with the timeline. I would say "Several days later" would've been the better choice of words than just "A few days later", but that's mostly a minor nitpick. InversePrime (talk) 01:30, 22 June 2021 (UTC)


 * I see. In that case, should we keep the phrase as several weeks or change it to several days or some undisclosed amount of time? Spawnermike (talk) 01:43, 22 June 2021 (UTC)Spawnermike


 * Yeah, I changed to just remove it since it's accurate with the events and makes the most sense. Double checking the movie again, the only confirmed time is that Nezu and All Might learned about the program "about a month" before it happens, but MHA has been slightly inaccurate with those exact dates before so it isn't a big deal.

 * All righty then. Thanks! Spawnermike (talk) 02:06, 22 June 2021 (UTC)Spawnermike


 * Ya, the source saying it was a month was the tie-in booklet but in reality it makes no sense. They should've be on the island for a few days, and most likely was an oversight.      Hawks       ଘ        FirePsychic                          02:20, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
 * What was the tie-in booklet that you're referring to? Volume Rising?Keeper of the Timeline (talk) 01:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * If the japanese version says they stayed for SEVERAL WEEKS it's because they stayed for more than just a few weeks, and it has more weight than the english dub. The main factor to know before trying to search logic between what the Manga says about the time when Heroes Rising can happen and how much time the movie events actually take is that the movie is non canonical. WIKIMARCO (talk) 18:19, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
 * The problem with this line of thinking is the Japanese subtitles say the exact same thing as the English dub. There is no official piece that states they stayed for "several weeks", only that they stayed "as long as they were assigned to". And no, the movie is canonical especially considering the manga itself directly leads into the events. Also minor inconsistencies in time aren't a huge deal when even the manga itself has gotten it wrong occasionally, in the same Christmas chapter, Nezu says the students have been in the dorms for "4 months" when technically it's been "5 months" (since beginning of August).

 * The Japanese audio is the official version, you can't go against the original version, and the Subs for that audio have to be the most accurate possible as it's the only way for the average viewer out of Japan to understand the content, so if the Subs say "Several Weeks" it's because they stay in the island FOR SEVERAL WEEKS! please, you people have to understand, it's non canonical, if Horikoshi stated it takes place at a certain point in the history of the Manga it's because it's a rule this kind of movies tend to follow, like Dragon Ball Z movies, and just because 9 apears in the Manga doesn't mean the movie is canon, it's more probable for 9 to appear in the current events of the Manga. Also, volume Rising makes no sense, Deku and Bakugo had a very damaged and hostile relationship at that time, it is impossible for them to try investigate something like that together, and being so dangerous, none of them should have survived against 9 at that point.

 * I feel like you just completely ignored everything I posted. I literally already said that the Japanese audio and subtitles say the students "stayed as long as they were assigned to." There is NOTHING that states they were on the island for several weeks. So yes, it is canon. InversePrime (talk) 05:41, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I just want to clarify the wiki treats both, Two Heroes and Heroes: Rising as canon and it's reflected in the synopsis on multiple characters. This includes Volume Extras, Vigilantes, Movie Tie-In Chapters, Databooks, etc.. Horikoshi communicates with both Hideyuki/Betten and Yoco to make sure every characters aren't far off from the Horikoshi's perspective. (doesn't mean perfect) The movie does have a proper place in the timeline as stated in the earlier comments as well as how long they were indeed there.

Possible sound issue
A distinct beeping noise can be heard at the start of scenes 31:11 and 1:21:43 which lasted for about 2 minutes on both. There have been some cases reported about this but providers like sky store, are unsure whether it is a glitch in the sound. Regardless it has been an ongoing issue since it’s digital release as some advisors have noticed it but find it hard to identify it on other devices such as TV’s unless the volume is turned up high or past a certain number. It it’s more dominant on apple devices like an iPad and also headphones during the scenes.
