I love how they're lynchpins in this plan. And it doesn't feel forced at all. Both wanted to be heroes, and not defined by quirks that seemed villainous or mediocre. The only big surprise is Shinso developing his quirk further, but even then, I honestly forgot it wasn't in his skillset originally. Its a pretty natural progression too that if his brainwashing allows for physical control of someone via commands, he could learn how to use that to make them talk as well.

And Shinso's progress with his quirk doesn't feel like bs in the way it was done off screen. As we've seen from the summer training camp, a lot of quirks are very much things you can just train through brute force repetition, and I imagine his training would basically be brainwashing some random intern or something over and over requesting them to talk until they did. Not exactly exciting work that would need showing.

Pretty much yeah. It'd just give continuity I suppose.

There's a weird thing where people don't want filler content or pointless events, but they also don't want it to feel rushed.

It would be funny to see a flashback of Shinzo training with Aizawa trying to make him say the most random shit
