What would you think about a purely efficient hero?

[Sugiyama]

Another thread asking what type of hero do people like between the goofy happy hero (Goku, Naruto, Luffy, etc...) and the dark hero (Vegeta, Sasuke, etc...) made me think about a question. We know that a lot of the fans of the former value kindness and caring for others. Meanwhile, a lot of the fans of the latter value rebellion, hurting others and efficiency. We know that a lot of the light heroes seem to lack in the intelligence department while a lot of the dark heroes lack in the morality department. However...

What would you think of a hero that had all of the power, intelligence, efficiency, wasn't goofy or stupid, and was considerate of others without compromising efficiency? An example of this: Imagine Kakashi if he had the power of Naruto or Sasuke. Imagine Zuko's uncle Iroh from Avatar the last airbender except younger and a lot more powerful but still the same wisdom. Imagine Hagoromo minus the poor judgement in choosing one son over the other. This is the type of hero that I am talking about. A hero that has what it takes to get the job done all the while not being dark to the point that his/her attitude pisses people off nor being an idiot.

What would you think about a hero like that?

Lots of fans of the latter also value 'kindness' and all the positive qualities; most of them tend to like the other category mainly because they find them more 'realistic' so to speak. A hero with a charismatic personality, dark actions but somewhat 'justifiable' motives is to some more appealing than a brand lighthearted hero with exaggerated good qualities.

OT: I think that kind of heroes is also too perfect and pretty undoable. Imo

It's cool though, it's not cheesy like FT and Magi, their is actually a science behind the magic.

One warning though, if your going to watch this, try your best to cope with the sister because she has a major bro complex. Be rest assured though, the brother only loves her as a sister so no incest.

Sounds good. Was a little bit suspicious about her pose with him haha.
Incest is only acceptable if there presents cannibalism, so all good.

Naruto/Goku are intelligent, they simply have a carefree personality.

Hagoromo had a bad judgement of picking love over power? His judgement was bad , because his got butthurt, that his younger brother was chosen? what?

General Iroh, was only a good character due to his timing, if the series was involved around him... i don't see him being better main character than Aang.

When a parent shows favoritism to one of their children, it breeds anger, frustration, and negativity.
You have to treat both children with equal love and compassion or in the end it will make one hate and resent the other, like Cain and Abel. When the older brother killed the younger brother out of jealousy

I think a character who makes mistakes, learns from them and grows both in power and as a person is more interesting to read about. I guess a smart and strong character can be done right if they have some other flaws to balance it out.
