Comment on A Flash Of Subelements- The Senju Uzumaki Heir

  1. I would question how heavily the Second Hokage holds back. And I'd also weigh the experience he's getting being trained by the man higher than many others.

    I'm not trying to argue. It just felt like you were trying to justify the ridiculously OP character you created losing fights he shouldn't or not being prepared for most anything. Kyubi won't be trying to take over, he has Mokuton, and has mastered at least two very deadly fighting styles. Who, outside of an Orochimaru level opponent could even slow him down at this point?

    Seriously though, I enjoy reading an OP character every now and then. The story is interesting. My only really criticism would be I hope the story becomes more doing and less telling.

    1. If you don't mind me, I'd like to give my small grain to the conversation, specially about the OP character trope. See, I like OP characters, they are just satisfying, seeing them curb stomp all their enemies and most of the worst troubles easily.

      The idea I would place when making an OP character is either making them socially or emotionally awkward or disfunctional, or changing/narrating the views of others around said OP person, as they are, of course, absurdly OP and Strong, they ought to be taken seriously.

       

      JJK SPOILER WARNING, USING EXAMPLE.

      For example Gojo from JJK was dealt with by sealing him away, as, if he had been free, he would have solved all of the troubles, or atleast be a big reason as to why the cursed spirits wouldn't be able to fully reach their objective, like a strong, really sturdy wall of bricks. So, thinking of the absurd strength and power that Gojo had, they chose first to send Toji to kill him, which he almost did, and then they solved it by sealing him away. That's why Gojo is great as a OP Character, he is a force to be reckoned, someone to be respected and feared.

      Atleast, that's my view of it, thanks for reading if you did! 😄
