I feel like having all the powers thing wasn’t even totally necessary for the plot. He could have just had one power to initially bring him to the association or maybe 2, then when being taken away awaken another ability, his mid control.
He didn’t need to control literally ALL the elements I feel like it was just unnecessary and wasn’t essential to the plot, it was NEVER used besides in like 4 panels.
I agree with your list the concept they have here are cool and refreshing
RIGHT!!! It was giving pick me, and yesssss nothing wrong with adding more powers later on, especially if it was needed for the plot, but the way they went about it was off
I like some concepts, the plot is cool, but the characters are just ew (well really its just the guides haha)
Also the "he has ALL the powers" was so cliche and lame BUT AGAIN really liked some of these concepts:
creating someone with powers,
forcing someone [the aunt] to love u [NOT supporting this, but its realistic and human that a kid would do that, he could have undone it tho "I feel guilty but not guilty enough to do anything about it"],
the mc and ml don't have the highest compatibility,
so on and so on
