I really do think that this chapter was simplified, because it's MHA usually isn't so
abrupt. The chapters are fast, but they usually have better flow to them. I'd be more critical of the chapter if it wasn't clearly because of these production problems, since it can't be a coincidence that the chapter would have all these issues at the same time, right?
I'll take fast pacing over slow any day, but yeah this chapter is definitely getting redone.
I wouldn't mind this either, but truth be told, I find MHA kinda slow believe it or not. Not on the arc to arc basis, those move at lightning pace. But in the sense overall progression isn't usually that much at the end of arcs. I think the fast nature of the arcs kind of hides how slow the series is overall. Still, I'm looking forward to this next arc because I always enjoy the villian's side a lot more than the hero side.
I see where you're coming from, but I also kind of disagree? The series isn't really about the "plot" in the way something like One Piece or Naruto is, it's about the characters.
I mean, just look at Todoroki. His issues were built-up, addressed, and
solved in the first fifty chapters! Compare that to someone like Sasuke, who took the entire 15 year run of Naruto to get where Todoroki is now. Or look at Deku's progression from the beginning of the series up to the Stain arc. Compare that to, say, Tsuna from Katekyo Hitman Reborn, who effectively remained the equivalent of Chapter 1 Deku for the entire run of his series. Even Sena from Eyeshield 21 took considerably longer to reach the same point.
Todoroki and Deku still have issues to solve, sure, but they're different issues from what they started with. So yeah, the plot of the series moves pretty slowly. But by the metric of character development, which is what the story is about, it's
fast. It's like the inverse of something like One Piece.
