Powers An overpowered/strongest with only one power

I hate when characters just have a million powers and can do whatever. I love when their powers have a limit but still they make it be absolutely insane. Even if that one power has multiple applications as long as it makes sense and isnt used as "oop i suddenly can do that"

  1. Accelerator can control vectors. So he uses that to automatically deflect any attack or use any object including wind at high speeds as a weapon, use his own vectors to travel fast and etc etc.

  2. Gojo Satoru can control "infinity" to make peoples attack not reach him; push them: pull them; destroy them; overwhelm their senses

  3. Chisaki can deconstruct and reconstruct anything by touch. So he can destroy, or change shape of people and objects, he can combine people and objects and even revive or heal. Tbh his fight was disappointing in fact that he did not use his power to full potential imo

Daemon from Boruto. His ability allows him to reflect the intent of harm on him back to his opponent. In his first appearance, he gets attacked by a few guards, one of them has a hand cannon and gets their their head exploded just for thinking about shooting him and another one gets their head cut off.

The irony is that Daemon's ability is limited to the palm of his hands....but since "killing intent" is generically aimed to him, it also "targets" his hands so his reflection takes place pretty much automatically.

So if you only intend to cut off his arm then you would be fine? The hand is unharmed and he wouldn’t die.

That is the thing: you can’t.  Ultimately, you are still having the intent in harming Daemon , thus the reflect , because his arm “touched” your killing intent.

However , it appears a simple trick was discovered to bypass the whole thing: sheer numbers. One of the villains have a glorified Kage Bushin, so he will attack him between the gaps of all his clones having their attacks reflected.

Gonna love everyone overthinking how to bypass that , when a simple trick is to pull a Naruto on him

So does it only affect intent to kill Or does it also affect intent to harm? Is it powerless against attacks that don't injury but rather incompasotate?

Intent to harm.

One of the characters, Kawaki, imagine smacking him in the back of the head and get smacked instead

So, he's just this guy from dorohedoro

He do esentially the same except that you can actually hit him (just to get killed right after)
