- you gave your character a disability but it never seems to disable them in the most crucial moments/they can just endlessly "push through it" without any extra consequences.

- your character has done some terrible things that had terrible consequences, but the narrative keeps presenting convoluted reasons for why everything they've done has actually always been the best thing, somehow. Everything they've done has always just been leading up to the absolute best possible outcome for everyone! Even if they didn't realize it!

- the narrative does an awful lot of telling when it comes to the protagonist's totally exceptionally good intelligence and skills, but we never actually see them being all that smart or skilled, but also also somehow they're still always doing exactly the correct thing that retroactively justifies their supposed intelligence and skill.
