Analysis
YPS-3
Slight power edge
YPS-4
Kirito has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Levi Ackerman: who they fight for, Kirito: self-determination and identity. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
