Nora's semblance was for comedic timing, in a tournament held to show off skill. Port and Oobleck rambling on about what makes Nora bounce back from a stun shock is conversational banter you expect in a tournament. It's a lot better placed than ruby telling blake that Yang's bouncing back. Ren and Pyrrha's animation got better by the second half of the fight....though on the first half they were almost as bad as Nora's.

I expected rambling commentary on her Semblance, yes....but not literally stopping for like 2 entire minutes while describing it. It's like the world stopped while he was rambling. Did everyone else in the whole colosseum stop all that time? Including the others fighting? Entire two minutes? It was five seconds. Literally just as long as the ruby explanation. Also WHat first half fight animation for Pyrrha? She barely has any focus time until after nora's semblance reveal. Before then she gets two slashes in and then sniper shots. There was no place for any battle choreo to make out anything. I'd say Ren's first scuffle suffers from the camera being too close in. His moves aren't particularly bad or out of the ordinary for him, just way too zoomed in to get any good body positioning
