The comparison is strongest when power scale, story role, and DNA dimensions are kept separate until the final read.

Clear power gap
YPS-2
Tatsumaki holds a meaningful power lead. A 2-tier gap is bridgeable only by exploiting scenario and DNA advantages aggressively. DNA tells a different story: Tatsumaki: self-determination and identity, Darkness: who they fight for. These are different character shapes, not different power levels. Darkness is the more complex character study despite the power gap: a pattern common in isekai where the weaker character carries more narrative weight.
