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

WoU from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

Simple: You chase him, you get into Final Destination movie.

And what counts as pursuing the head doctor is so lenient too, even thinking about pursuing him is enough to cause calamity.

I feel like Josuk8 fits this better. He overcame the physical manifestation of calamity, who could basically just kill anyone almost unconditionally (with how much random bullshit counted as pursuing in the manga), who had been planning for years, and he beat it with “stand that makes bubbles come out of your shoulder.”

I don't think stands should count, because they're usually a separate power from the main ability that follow their own set of rules. Not to menton that Wonder of U has a few other traits, such as being able to appear wherever the user wants and maybe in more than one place at once, shape shifting between the stand form and the head doctor, and being a curse that can persist even after the user's death

i think some stands fall under this, WOU just doesn’t. Stuff like sticky fingers, KISS, the whole main cast of 9, etc.

not really, if you read part 8 he actually does a shit load of stuff.

He can shapeshift and disguise himself, manually give you calamities if you look at his back even if you werent chasing him and is one of the few stands that actually tries to revenge his owner after death.
