Regarding the ending, there is also some discussion as to whether the ending is a well-implemented case of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome.
Supporters say it's unrealistic for high school classmates to spend time together especially if they chose different careers, and about deku and Ochako, they said that a high school crush isn't something that lasts anyway.
Those against it say that a superhero manga doesn't have to be realistic.

There's one thing the Deku/Ochako shippers haven't thought about (that unfortunately the manga itself doesn't say either way or the other): that Deku and Ochako are simply in a long distance relationship.
Self-professed Wild Card who thinks cynicism isn't so bad.He went beyond (PLUS ULTRA) his role as a shonen mentor.
That's how All-Might rolls.
One Strip! One Strip!I think we were all spoiled by Naruto showing how the love lives of literally everyone in the main generation turned out. Not that anything less could have quelled the wars.

Does anyone actually read these?Nah, there was no need to give us a naruto ending.
It was enough if they gave us a Mob Psycho 100 ending, if they decided to go the Did Not Get the Girl route, and a Full metal alchemist Brotherhood-like ending if they end together.
If they had given us a scene where Ochako tells Deku that her hero career takes priority and she can't have a romance, it would have been a good thing.

Yeah at the end what mattered was the close emotional moments he had with Ochako, Bakugou, etc. rather than romance specifically.
x3 Naruto was even followed with a kid spin-off short manga of Salad and the fact she never sees her dad.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.FMA pretty explicitly makes clear that there was romantic resolution.
Mob Psychos manga does end with it explicitly as Just Friends, but the anime opened it up to be potentially more if I remember right.
Toga crushing on Deku become the means by which she became interested in Ochako. It’s pretty explicit by the end her relationship towards Uraraka was clearly more important than her crush on Deku.

I thought bad-faith meant "arguing for the sake of being contrarian".
"Cynicism is not realistic and tough. It's unrealistic and kind of cowardly because it means you don't have to try."
