Which Shonen MC would you say worked the hardest and deserves their powers/skills?

Probably some sports shounen kid. They're usually the ones that are actual underdogs without being genetic freaks.

>zero magic power in a world with magical borderline gods
>shrimpy manlet
>even when he finally gets his power it's basically just wielding a big sword which he can only hold up because he's physically strong from never giving up and training every single day of his life despite being literally the weakest person in his world
>outclassed constantly and survives by a hair on plot armor alone for half the series run, and only becomes OP near the end.
does not belong on your list and is hands down one of the best examples of OP's question.

Decuck

who?

Goku?

Guts maybe? He's literally just a guy with a sword for a large part of the story.

Denji meets and befriends a powerful devil, his parents are literal whos, he has no bloodline. Yeah he was gifted power but it wasn't nepotistic.

Well-done downplaying that he got a super special book no ever awakened in generations, which bcfags typically do as the braindead fans they are,
>has tough fights
wew, surely this applies to half the list though? I mean, it was just a list of who got special powers? I wonder why you didn't have a problem with the other names?

Tatsumi from Akame ga Kill.

Imagine the fucking colors
