Constructive criticism: When you're doing those short action intense beats, use your full stops. Commas aren't your friend there.
I never get that. Always ends up like that. Like, just stick to your premise right? But they keep on expanding and adding, but they don't go deep in the premise they're building.And add this. I don't think that a bland characters is necessarily bad when there's space to grow as even the most bland shonen mc can do (yet they don't), what I usually find is that some authors get stuck inside a trope and are unable to get out, and when they do get out, they betray their own premise. Use for example Naruto or My Hero Academy, you have this very simple plot about this character overcoming impossibly hard odds through hard work, thus achieving what was once an impossible goal, but then the thing goes own and the author, trying to fulfill an increasing demand must add more and more stuff. Naruto like Rise of the shield hero went through the route of betraying their premise, hard work is meaningless, elitism is the true answer, people who were supposed to be great will always go beyond those that lack any talent that is not hard work, and the result will be the same hole they were supposed to be. Naruto becomes an glorified office worker/absent dad, Midoriya is the best hero ever for like five seconds and then becomes a boring teacher while blank face kids is the true hero, Naofumi gets stuck in isekai samsara harem forever and so on
I don't think it's because subversion is bad. It's more of how authentic are the creators being and how tgey are exploring a concept. Elric of melnibone tries to subvert lord of the rings and a little bit of conan, but it still has its own thing, right? It basically brought in the multiverse concept as we know it to literature, and comics ,and all that good stuff. It subverts what those icons did, but it's authentic to its own premise.It goes deep, it doesn't just add on stuff, because it can, it goes deep with them.And when it's exhausted, the concept that's when it moves on and a lot of authors data.Society give something a new dimension.They just add more, they just add more, and they don't go in deep.Conan the Barbarian that doesn't pretend to be anything else than dark fantasy and reveals in that, it works, and at the other side of the spectrum, where there's pure subversion you find nothing, because subversion by itself is an empty thing, is the author being petty and stupid for the sake of it and I don't think anyone should ever waste time with someone like that. Think of how Star Wars, a pretty good, not complicated at all trilogy, with a failed albeit fun prequel, was dragged through mud due to a combination of corporative greed, fan blindness and awful creatives without an honest bone in their bodies
