It’s always so funny when shows make a character who “has no natural talent” and then they have to spawn in natural talent

Genuinely every time. The entire premise is “you can be strong with hard work” then they magically reveal the mc has some special ability/heritage all along. Literally just destroying the message and re-affirming that you are nothing without good genes and regardless of how hard you work, who you are born as is more important.


jfl atleast they have good intentions before completely fucking ruining them

You need both luck and hard work to make it big. That's just a fact.
MC always has some hidden special power, because readers/watchers like to live vicariously through the MC and feel special and empowered.

Yes but I’m saying when the original goal is to make it look like they have no natural prowess and then go back later and add it
