So MHA season 5 is already underway but I am thinking about watching the movie to post a reaction next weekend.

I've also gotten requests to wait until the end of season 5 since the movie may contain potential spoilers. 

And It has also been suggested to watch the movie after the completion of the first arc of season 5 since that might eliminate many of the potential spoiler issues. 

Let me know what you think in the poll!


Either way the movie will happen relatively soon and will a Patreon exclusive since I've given up on movies for YouTube after the experience with Two Heroes lol.


The poll will be up for probably 3 or 4 days. 


Edit: a reminder that voting for multiple options is possible :)

I think you should watch it AFTER season 5 so you don’t miss the context given to you by one of the arcs at the end of season 5. Just my 2 cents

I saw the movie with two anime only friends on release night, and neither picked up on any of the "spoilers" that the movie has. It feels more like manga readers see the foreshadowing while anime onlys gloss over it fairly frequently.

Damn the people who want you to watch it ASAP are gonna win, the people who want you to wait are gonna be divided among option 2 and 3

1st movie after season 3, second movie after season 4, 3rd movie after season 5

Scoola

I mean if you pay close attention you will be spoiled but tbh I watched it before S5 and I didnt really catch on

Anonymous

sorry technically season 2, first movie, season 3, season 4, 2nd movie, season 5, 3rd movie

Jo

I do hope at very least waiting until after the first arc wins. That way the big spoiler (that its literally said out loud in the movie lol) won't matter

DVK

But you’re not really supposed to have that context though, right?

PKKite

After 5 it's not like you NEED to watch it before. And season 6 isint going to be out anytime soon so it can end the series for now till then.

DVK

Whatever you do, unfortunately some people are going to disagree. I don’t mind whatever the end result is, I don’t think the ‘spoilers’ are too big of a deal, but I also don’t mind waiting. Whenever you watch it, I think you’ll enjoy it!

Jo

Alex is a really bright guy though, I fear him picking up on everything lol

Vali

Don’t think it’ll be a big deal if you watch it before the end of s5. Think first arc is a good compromise.

Tyler Owens

The movie makes the most sense post season 5. The are spoilers that were intended as manga "teases" (since it came out in theaters during season 4 release.

Is this gonna be Pollgate 2.0? LOL does anyone remeber PollGate? Great time in Goodwin's channel lore. Now THAT was an argumentative comment section if ive ever seen one. I voted for both watching the movie ASAP or after the first arc, the spoilers are barely spoilers and I didn't notice a single one when I watched the movie so who cares about watching it when pretty much all other MHA fans watched it when it originally aired. Also....90 votes in the poll, over 10 comments, only 2 likes on the post...? monkaHmm What is going on here? Could it be...election rigging using bots???

Jo

You're not serious thinking it's bots, right? 😂

Nick

This Goodwin TV we're talking about though, despite what he says he is pretty good at picking up foreshadowing. Except for the female titan, but aside from that, for sure

Nick

I have no opinion having not seen season 5 or the movie yet. So... yeah no vote for me. If it's an option, put me in for "whatever works"

Jo

Nick I will pay you 100 imaginary good boy points to pick either of the last two options Yes this is a bribe

Rose Rivers

It doesn’t really matter when you watch the movie tbh. Anything in it at most just suggestive to stuff that happens in season 5.

Jax

It does take place after 5, or at least after events that aren't shown until the second arc of 5. And there is one fairly moderate spoiler for 5's back half.

Alex Williams

Except for one major character that shows up at the last arc of season 5 and on top of that anything to do with that character and what the character said in the movie also would be better to have context on before the movie

Wonderxfull

Can't blame you for the poll!! I don't think there has been a single MHA upload with out one comment or another on this subject for the last four weeks. I no longer care when you decide to watch it, I just want to get to the halfway mark of S5 right now haha.

BotheredAsh

Really I think you can watch it before season 5 but I'm just excited for you to watch bakudeku the movie. XD sorry to bring ships into this its just my shipper heart just feels blessed with this movie. Now that I've outed myself, you can totally ignore this.

Jenny bete

Omgg hey! I'm so glad to find another bakudeku fan here. I'm so excited for him to watch the movie as well because of their scenes together (as one of the many reasons), though I still voted for after the first arc of s5, I feel like that's a good compromise. It's a shame that shippers get so much hate for no reason.

kingafreund

There are spoilers, but nothing too big, so it really depends on how much you care about those. Timeline wise it makes the most sense after season 5, coz then you'll have all the context that matters, but it's not like you'll be totally lost if you watch it before.

Alacor

It's just a matter of whether or not you want to learn some things for the first time during season 5 or during the movie. I liked learning those things during the movie and I don't think I would have preferred learning them in season 5 instead, so eh. If you want to watch it now I say go for it!

JustanAnus

There are some truly major spoilers for season 5 in the movie. I don't know what everyone else is saying that there's a few subtle spoilers, they're pretty in your face. I recommend watching the movie after Season 5 for sure so you can experience it completely spoiler free.

benj

Well I think people are saying that due to personal experience, and I agree with them. I watched the movie before Season 5 and literally nothing was spoiled for me cause I clearly just didn't pick up on the foreshadowing or whatever the small spoilers are.

Jev Cor

They spoil one of early season 5's biggest reveals in a three second cut away, wouldn't touch it till halfway.

Muchymozzarella

After half of season 5 should be fine! World Heroes Mission comes in the middle of season 5, which makes timelines a little confusing, but it's all good regardless.

Project Pachia

I dont care!!!! watch it right away!! Screw continuity!!!!!!

Gonçalo Veiga da Costa

Who cares about the movie, its not like any of it is canon anyway. None of it ever happened. Just watch the fireworks when you feel like it, if you feel like it. Why argue over a "what if?" scenario? I honestly never watched either of the movies.

benj

441 people have voted in this poll, so I guess at least that many care about the movie lol. You are missing out chief, there are 3 movies now and they are all amazing. They are also all confirmed canon. The movies add a lot to the franchise and characters, and are also a chance for the studio to go all out on the animation side so some of the best fighting/quirk action scenes also take place in the movies, particularly the second movie.

Gonçalo Veiga da Costa

They aint canon just because the author was payed a lot in licensing fees in order for the anime distributing company to be able to use his characters and his world for their original franchise of movies and for him to lie to his fans to promote it as canon. But, my question is, if i was just to read the manga and never see the anime (since it was hastily rewritten and poorly stitched back together to include the movies) or the movies, would I miss out on anything actually relevant? No, because guess what, movie distribution takes a long time and neither manga nor anime can depend on the plot lines of the movies because of those time constraints. Therefore if both plotlines never intercept, the movies are filler!
