[@VitaVitaAR] I'm not saying stuff like that should happen. But having it so watered down that you drastically limit variety for the sake of 'balance' between all the PCs seems silly. (besides, someone with a super strong barrier as their only ability makes perfect sense. One Piece has such a character and they still make it work well. Yeah you need to balance that exact ability, but its super easy to do considering how those rules are set)

But remove that whole "this is One Piece/Naruto/Bleach/ext... all in one" concept which is not what the OP is going for at this rate, and choose something more tame like what [@Zero Hex] said and pretty much all my issues with this go away.

Where does the OP say that it's all those shows in one? The OP actually lays out My Hero Academia, Soul Eater and Naruto as the biggest influences, and I know at least Naruto out of those three keeps thing constrained to chakra. Sure, chakra can do a lot of stuff, but you're not going to see somebody fighting in a mech suit in Naruto.

Plus, the different power types in the OP already allow for a wide variety of stuff. I don't see the point in making a bunch of exceptions so people can play their special snowflake characters that don't really fit in the setting.
