Not gonna lie maybe it's cultural or something, but i've noticed in a lot of manga that the MC can never do shit against people in a better position of power than them despite having the powers of Gods (and anime) on their side, they only react and even then even if the bad guy was literally Hitler at best they get stripped of their rank or get a slap in the wrist (social humiliation what a tragedy truly worse than death), it's like they're trying to teach kids to never oppose people in positions of authority even if they're the worst example of humanity the world has to offer (my favorite cliche is the horrible noble family with the "conveniently" good egg who can fix everything).
As a wise bear-god once said to a carbosilicate amorph, if you try to solve all your problems by shooting at them, you will run out of bullets way before you run out of problems.
To be fair, the amorph pointed out that that's exactly why plasguns use annie-plants, so you DON'T run out of bullets, but that's beside the point...
