You a Naruto hater? I don't watch anime anymore, but Naruto was great

And so he does. Alright then.
There's so much going on I can't reply to one thing, so i'll try to get on the things that most of you are talking about.
1)It is ridiculous that you had a seven million car to begin with. Finding a random, unnamed, super powered mechanic is even more so. That's the same as if one of the hero characters decided to find a sidekick and started rping like that.
2)Yes it is just a car, so let it go, if you really want to take care of a care that badly join a racing RP. I think I saw an interest check for one earlier. Your guy rides around on a board anyways.
3)Your character has been using his powers all day but he's not at all fatigued, make it so he's tired. I imagine trying to blast everything in sight is taking it's toll on him.
If you guys really want to argue some more, we can take it into the pms, but I would like for this to stop now.

I have mentioned surviving an explosive laser bolt to the chest without any significant injuries, if any, as well as releasing huge waves of electricity without becoming even remotely tired.

1. That's just life. Sometimes people shoot space junk and total 7 million dollar cars and that's okay. You just gotta move on.
2. That's the issue, it's too convenient and borderline cheating to have a super-powered guy down the road who can fix your stuff almost immediately, and that's me ignoring the actual form of damage the car's sustained.
3. I don't get this one.
4. This one is sort of irrelevant. It's just the fact that your essentially making your character a mini-mary-sue by having all these advantages available to you at the flick of a wrist.
5. This one's down to KriticalKrab, but I'm pretty sure the answer to this would be no, since the whole adolescent thing is in play.
Anyway, that's just my series of opinions since I feel as though I should get involved in these discussions more. I feel so social right now.
So social
Really, @The Patriarch? I didn't want to be the one to say this, but your posting style is... how do I describe it... convenient. Probably not the best word to describe it, but perhaps I should explain my reasoning.
The first thing I started disliking was when Bolt was shot by a security guard, but you weren't too badly injured due to a bulletproof vest. However, I was willing to forgive that since I myself have no experience dealing with bulletproof vests and shouldn't be one to judge about that.
Then Bolt was able to dodge Press' laser that targeted Bolt's bag of money. In that post you claimed that he "noticed the hero." How? Press and Bolt weren't exactly next to each other or even in front of each other when it happened. Still, I was willing to forgive that too, since there weren't exactly precise details about their locations.
Then on to the subject of getting shot by Press' laser. Bolt was hit by a laser bolt that explodes upon impact. And I mean EXPLODES. Bolt just shrugged it off like it was nothing. Bulletproof vest or no, intense training by the Shadows or no, Bolt does not have toughened skin or anything like that, so it shouldn't be possible for Bolt to not at least feel some lingering pain from that.
Finally, your latest post. Lifting a car, even if it is a completely totaled car, and your surfboard using electromagnetism? A guy that repairs a car in a minute? For a car that's practically been sliced into two? It sounds just far too perfect. Seriously, intense training by these so-called Shadows or not, He's still an adolescent. He's already been releasing massive amounts of electricity, and I highly doubt this car mechanic was right around the corner. Even if he was, repairing that kind of damage in merely a minute is quite outrageous. If it were that easy for anyone to do, Press could have done it himself.
What I'm trying to say is that you seem to be trying to make your character as unbeatable and as perfect as possible while barely staying under the radar of Mary Sue detection. You use this whole "Shadows" story as an excuse to have your character be stronger than an average adolescent. Thing is, our characters are still adolescents. They still have things to learn. You seem to have had Bolt learn everything but restraint. Frankly, it's quite too much.
