I'm telling my mommy. That pubbie doesn't do video games right!
Most of this physics talk is baseless until we know whether she's removing weight (through the force of gravity) or mass. There's a world of difference between the two.

If, and this is a big if, the author has thought it through it's probably removing the mass; she was able to stop Deku from falling to his death and only removing only gravity wouldn't have made an immediate difference. Removing mass would allow the drag from air to bring him to a stop very quickly.


Re air chat:

Removing weight (gravity) from the air it would accomplish nothing besides creating a strong wind as air was replaced. Like how hot air rises in a balloon, only from a different cause.

Removing the mass from the air wouldn't even cause that; the pressure wouldn't even change.

On the other hand adding a lot of mass to air would make it difficult or impossible to breathe. Adding a lot of gravity (weight) to the air would probably have the same effect as a constricting snake.

Also explosive decompression (as in literally exploding/bursting out of your skin) is a myth.
