What they share

Both films are directed by Tensai Okamura, and they sit in Action / Animation / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to My Hero Academia: You're Next, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What EVANGELION: DEATH (TRUE)² is
