Ultra Analysis is supplemental
material for My Hero Academia, consisting mostly of profiles for pre-existing characters with stats, quotes, and key panels for over 85 characters. Most characters get a two page spread. There's also a joint interview with Kohei Horikoshi and Tite Kubo, a mangaka whose works include Bleach and Burn the Witch.
It's very dry to read cover to cover and only one or two pieces of art were drawn specifically for this relase--most of it appears to be from previous chapters of the manga. I think only die hard MHA fans will get a lot of joy from this. And even then, I spotted a few printing errors. For example, Hatsume's name is misspelled once in her bio. Also, this may be just my copy, but there are several left hand pages where parts of images and sometimes even text is cut off. Errors happen, but with how big MHA has gotten (there's what, 3 spin offs now?) I'm surprised that quite a few snuck through.
Rant. I'd love to go back to the days when I didn't know Mineta designed a new weapon based on anal beads. Yeah, I know some high schoolers are like that, but it's weird for an adult to write about high schoolers being like that for laughs. Seriously, if you can't say anal beads because part of your audience is too young, don't reference anal beads.

Originally published in 2016, this didn't get an English translation until 2021, so information is very old. It's a decent sized book but doesn't explain anything new. The best features are probably the gallery of pictures (some from twitter, others from Jump). Theres good little quips about characters from the author, which is nice.
Not a must buy, but it is a solid information source, which is its goal.
