Decent episode, great speech

Warning: Spoilers
Overall this was a decent episode but it really was more of a build episode for the rest of the season. It started off where we last left off with the angry civilians lashing out at deku to leave my hero academia in fear that they are in danger due to his presence at the school, this causes ochaco to make a powerful speech to try and win over the crowd of uneasy citizens and to put trust in the hero's once again. Realism of situations like this aside, her speech moved everyone and it brought them all together ti give him a chance and some of the people who deku saved came out to support him. There's not much more to say about this episode since it was mostly a speech/build episode. Though that stain reveal at the end definitely left me curious and excited for next episode.

this show would be 100x better if the demographic they were targeting was more mature

I know its a matter of taste. I just lose a sense of immersion when I cant help but feel the dialogue and story is catering so heavily towards a 12 year old, Still some great animation, and i understand that the writing is part of the original manga.

Just feels so odd to me that, you have 1000s of people seeking shelter at this high-school post an event that can only be compared to a city wide anarchy/war, where they are severely crippled when it comes to any leverage they might have on the front lines. They are helpless- hundreds of people dead, thousands of peoples homes obliterated. Technically- noone is TRULY safe. Anyone can die on any given day, week etx.

And, despite all this, we have uraraka out here giving an emotional, passionate speech about how important it is for everyone to help each other... smile?

And the principal is able to build a complex structured system under the school... seemingly worth billions of dollars, would take years to build- and nobody noticed? If their safety is at such a high risk of being compromised, why not just build underground compounds like they do, u know, in the real world? Its hard to wrap my head around the grid panel logic. I understand at this point it has less to do with the anime itself, and more so the original writing. And i get it- its a typical shounen targeting pre-teen/teens.

Feels like im watching at this point just because im so far deep. My truth is that, this show lost something big time when all might became depleted, and i think the show has thus far struggled to replace the intensity of the conflict between all might and all for one.

Waiting patiently for some big pay off, im sure some of the future fight scenes gonna go crazy.
