Large tier gap

Raw power is tilted before the argument starts. The interesting part is what survives after that gap is admitted.

Analysis

Dominant power gap
YPS-2

In a direct clash, Saitama wins: 5 tiers of separation is a gap that DNA edges alone cannot close. DNA tells a different story: Saitama: self-determination and identity, Alice Zuberg: how much the universe protects them. These are different character shapes, not different power levels. Alice Zuberg is the more complex character study despite the power gap: a pattern common in isekai where the weaker character carries more narrative weight.
