Which shonen anime leave the OP good guy alive. By OP good guy I don't mean main character, I mean the characters that are already world class at the start of the show. People like all might. Watching jujutsu kaisen right now and it has a similar thing. Theres one good guy that is the strongest in the world and it's so clear that he is going to be at least in some way taken out of commission, because he is too powerful for the story to progress. What anime leave these people in?

I can think only of hunter x hunter right now. I mean, eventually they kill off some of the strong characters, but thats a long long way in and even then, theres people like hisoka that could presumably handle anything that comes up.

I didn't watch far enough into black clover to see if the magic king or whatever they called it ever got taken out but I'm almost certain he would get taken out so the main people can matter.

DBZ doesn't really have anyone that fits this. Each new enemy is the strongest ever and the good guys must rise to meet the challenge.

Bleach doesn't really have anyone that fits either IIRC.

One piece doesn't really have this as far as I had watched (which was a bit over 100 episodes). They have people way stronger than the main characters, but none that are actively supporting them.

Naruto has at least one that gets taken out. I haven't seen it to it's conclusion either though.

It's just kind of a bummer to see one of these characters and know "oh yeah, the story is going to either kill them or weaken them 100%".
