Hi again! :)
Of course, the MC being OP from the start doesn't equal the story being awful. But I find stories more satisfying when a character has to "work" for it, kind of like an underdog situation.
As you say, having trained kendo for years has its perks; she can dodge the guys' moves. She is also likely to be stronger than the average person. But I feel like I had to make some story progression. And it was also necessary for the upcoming chapters, more to be revealed soon.
Perhaps displaying one of her best moves at such an early stage might feel rushed. But I would like to think of it as a sneak peek of what's in store. Also, once she puts her mind to something, she is a quick learner (which is kind of what you mentioned).
I respect your opinion, and thank you for your feedback! I will also consider rewriting this chapter because I agree that the sudden "overpowerdness" might feel a bit off. I will have to think of a great way of doing so!
Thanks for your commitment! ❤️
