Clear power gap
YPS-4
Cha Hae-In holds a meaningful power lead. A 2-tier gap is bridgeable only by exploiting scenario and DNA advantages aggressively. DNA tells a different story: Edward Elric: who they fight for, Cha Hae-In: raw destructive ceiling. These are different character shapes, not different power levels. Edward Elric is the more complex character study despite the power gap: a pattern common in isekai where the weaker character carries more narrative weight.
