History Recap / MyHeroAcademiaS6E24AYoungWomansDeclaration

* ArcWords: Nezu mentions more than once how "''the first/extra step''" is sometimes needed for empathy and understanding. Even with all the preparations and heroes on hand, none of that will matter if people they are protecting aren't confident enough to trust and help them. Once Uraraka is seen as the first to emotionally defend Midoriya, then Kota and the tall woman rush over to comfort him, then the "Star-Headed Man" gives everyone a pep talk to help the heroes. Afterwards, they all step forward to give Midoriya and the others their support.

* CrazyPrepared: Nezu claims to have paid top yen (''his own'', in fact) to soup up U.A's defenses. Along with the giant barrier, he requested compressing floors below to trap or delay intruders, remembering the threat of Shigaraki's Decay or Toga's Transform. He even called for an elevator system that allows the dorms and shelters to go underground ''a la [[Manga/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]'', and can transfer them to neighboring schools like Shiketsu with the same system.

* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: One of the loudest protesters keeps trying to argue with Uraraka of why Midoriya shouldn't come back. ''"He shouldn't be around us because of his power"'', he says. ''"He '''chose''' to leave and '''we''' chose him back"'', she says. ''"Just because he's covered in grime, we should be as well"'', he asks? ''"'''We''' Heroes should be the ones covered in grime, but we need a chance to wash it off now and then"'', she retorts. Eventually, the young man runs out of excuses, realizing just how much hell one boy has been through for people like him and how much he needs a break; not because he has given up, but because he can be healthy again to fight on.

* FantasticRacism: The "Ordinary Woman" already had to deal with the vigilantes who attacked her simply because of her appearance at night but, up until she came into U.A, she claimed to have ran into several shelters that have turned her away because she is a heteromorph. In fact, it appears that many heteromorphs in general haven't had much luck either even when they need help, bringing back the discussion of racism within the superpower society.

* JerkassRealization: Ever since the Jaku City incident, the citizens have buried the Heroes they once looked up to with blame and frustration. After seeing the state the young boy Izuku Midoriya is in just by shouldering that burden as well, as well as hearing Uraraka's words and a couple of allies comforting him, one more citizen backs them up by saying they should be grateful there are still Heroes fighting for them, and continuing their current attitude will only make things worse for everyone. If nothing else, they should do as Uraraka asks and allow Midoriya and other Heroes to recuperate so they can be ready for the next fight.

* NoNameGiven: As with their appearances in the manga, "Ordinary Woman" and "Star-Headed Man" remain unnamed as their role of people, while insignificant in the bigger picture, had their lives changed by Midorya for the better. This applies to the citizens who further defend the heroes, also like the manga.
* RousingSpeech: Uraraka uses this to convince the refugees to allow Midoriya back in the school he attends, extending to the Heroes deserving rest so they can be ready.

** Kota and the "Ordinary Woman" are two of the most notable characters Midoriya saved at some point, with the woman being more recent, so they are the first people from the crowd to return the favor after hearing Uraraka, giving Midoriya their support.[[note]]While Eri is the most prominent one he saved, she is too young to go through the angry crowd and has to be kept indoors.[[/note]]

-->'''Uraraka''': I'M BEGGING YOU... let U.A... continue to be his ''Hero Academy''!

-->'''Uraraka''': Please... let this place... continue to be his ''Hero Academy''!

And...\\
[[AC: [[MeaningfulEcho The story of how everyone became the greatest heroes.]]]]''

* BittersweetEnding: Thanks to Uraraka and a few familiar citizens and friends Midoriya had met or rescued in the past, the refugees in U.A. find that there are still heroes in and out there who are laying down their lives to protect them, and they have to at least assist them in a way that has them be ready for their next battle. Because of this, they abandon their earlier protests and welcome Midoriya back to his school to finally get cleaned up and well-rested but. While they won't be able fix the Villain crisis immediately, Midoriya promises that they ''will'' stop it all the same together. All Might, meanwhile, heads out to find any more people seeking refuge while thinking back on his role as Midoriya's idol and mentor... ''with Stain not too far behind''.

* NoNameGiven: As with their appearances in the Managa, "Ordinary Woman" and "Star-Headed Man" remain unnamed as their role of people, while insignificant in the bigger picture, had their lives changed by Midorya for the better.

* TheBusCameBack: Among the crowd listening to Uraraka's words is the "Ordinary Woman", the tall mutant woman Midoriya saved during his time away from U.A, who is able to recognize him by his Hero outfit. Kota is also seen along with Tomoko Shiretoko, fomerly Ragdoll of the Wild Wild Pussycats, as well as the parents of Midoriya, Bakugo, and Uraraka. Even the "Star-Headed Man" who talked to and supported Midoriya ''in the very first episode of the series'' makes an appearance. As with their appearances in the Managa, "Ordinary Woman" and "Star-Headed Man" remain [[NoNameGiven unnamed]] despite their role.

** When one other person suggests taking Midoriya to Shikestu High instead, the one next to him believes that school would face the exact same problem, but no one to back him.

* HesBack: With his friends, and now the people, by his side, Midoriya's "Dark Hero" phase comes to an end. He declares that together, they can take back the peace they lost.

* ImpliedDeathThreat: As some of the mob's anger intensities, Izuku's Danger Sense blares in his head, implying that some angry citizens feel like doing more than just kicking him out.[[note]]The anime shows only a shadow of dread over him, while the manga shows Danger Sense more prominently thanks to its lighting bolt symbols.[[/note]]

** Uraraka saved Midoriya from an embarrassing faceplant during his first day in U.A. In a way, she's saving him again in this episode, this time from the angry crowd and maybe even himself, showing that there is someone who will be by his side if or when he ever needs it.
** Midoriya mentions again how this story is how he became the "World's Greatest Hero". However, he adds that this is the story is also how ''everyone'' became the "greatest Heroes", referring to his friends and perhaps even the people who aren't official Pros ''or'' Heroes themselves.

** The "Star-headed Man's" own speech compares the Hero Society everyone once knew as a 'stage' made by All Might, with the Heroes as its 'stars' and the people its 'audience'. Now that the stage is gone, he believes they should start doing what they can to assist the Heroes after the ones who haven't quit yet are pressing on, even after the pursuit of fame and fortune is gone.

* SkewedPriorities: Uraraka remembers when she was younger one Pro Hero named Eel-Boy still standing after a heated battle, but she was more focused on the ''people'' cheering for him. This is implied to be her "origin" as to why she is interested in financially providing for her parents whenever she officially becomes a Pro Hero, since she wants to see people smile.

* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: One of the loudest protesters keeps trying to argue with Uraraka of why Midoriya shouldn't come back. ''"He shouldn't be around us because of his power"'', he says.

Now that the stage is gone, he believes they should start doing what they can to assist the Heroes after the ones who haven't quit yet are pressing on, even after the pursuit of fame and fortune is gone.

** One For All may be a special power that Midoriya possesses, but it doesn't automatically make him special; he's still only a teenaged high schooler who has made himself carry everyone's burden.
** She tells citizens that, as of this moment, she is unable to just say that "everything will be all right", because she and the other Heroes are just as scared as them, despite continuing the fight against Villains for their sake.

* BystanderSyndrome: Back when there were more than enough Heroes to go around, the citizens of Japan usually have to simply stand by and watch the spectacle as their costumed savoirs face the typical Villain. It was typical average day that doesn't exist anymore now that many of those Heroes have left because of their scrutiny and inaction. The "Star-Headed Man" believes that everyone became complacent after All Might set an example of the average Hero in Japan, and have forgotten that they are all people just like them. If they ever want their lives back, they should do the bare minimum and help the remaining Heroes to the best of their ability.
* ContrivedCoincidence: When they last met, Midoriya saved the tall mutant woman from paranoid vigilantes and asked All Might to take her to a nearby shelter. However, several of them have recently denied entry to heteromorphs like her despite the ongoing villain crisis, yet U.A. took her in immediately. The two ''just happened'' to cross paths again due to each other's predicaments, and she now knows that the same boy attends the very school she and many others are taking refuge in. She and Kota give him a [[CooldownHug comforting hug]], and she feels fated that she can finally thank her "[[AffectionateNickname Crybaby Hero]]" in person, despite the circumstances.

* HardTruthAesop: As Uraraka puts it, just because you have have a special talent or ability, doesn't mean you are better or more important than everybody else. As Bakugo explained last episode and here, there are some things you can't do by yourself and need as much help as you can get in order to achieve them.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Some of the crowd aren't very confident in having someone who is targeted by Villains like Shigaraki in the same place they are. They aren't exactly wrong either, as their well-being is exactly why Midoriya left U.A in the first place.

** Midoriya mentions again how this story is how he became the "World's Greatest Hero". However, he adds that this is the story how ''everyone'' became the "greatest Heroes", referring to his friends and perhaps even the people who aren't Pros ''or'' Heroes themselves.

If nothing else, they should do as Uraraka asks and allow Midoriya amd other Heroes to recuperate so they can be ready for the next fight.

** The last time Midoriya fell on his knees to cry was when All Might told him he can be a Hero, even before he inherited One For All. He cries again here, after hearing Uraraka's words that U.A is his Hero Academia. Both of these moments seem to have given him a feeling of belonging as both stated that U.A. is his Hero Academia.

Justified as this implies to be her "origin" as to why she is interested in financially providing for her parents when she officially becomes a Pro Hero, since she wants to see people smile.
* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: The crowd is the "monster" and Uraraka is the one doing the talking. She takes it upon herself to convince them that Midoriya deserves to return to his school.

* BreatherEpisode: While the drama is tense, there are no action-packed fights or dangerous Villains gunning for anyone. The worse the students, teachers, and Pros have to deal with are the angry yet concerned citizens who have evacuated their homes.
