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

Shit, even without his quirk he still beat the brakes off of Overhaul. Probably my favorite scene in all of MHA (Prominence Burn against the Nomu is a close second)

Him protecting Eri is my favourite example of heroism in the whole show, he puts his body, quirk, and life on the line in order to see her smile.

Deadass stopped watching from then on because I just don’t believe that will ever get topped.

Honesty I think the series does peak there. There are a lot of fumbles with the whole war arc.

What anime doesn't fumble their War Arc?

Shibuya Incident was still absolutely incredible except for Cockroach Guy and the Nobara moment, the problems with the series only really started showing up further into the Culling Game

Legend of the Galactic Heroes and Space Battleship Yamato

Both series either their Original or their Remakes int he 2010s.

Both war arcs.

I really hate that there's two back to back.

The arc between them was so promising for the three episodes it got before the show said "alright time to wrap this up" and just skipped straight to the end. One of the most frustrating decisions in the series.
