While I do see your points about Yang, I won't go into them right now because this blog is ultimately about Adam, and not Yang. Though I can see where you're coming from.

However, with those cutting slashes, I do have to point something out. When he used it to cut off Yangs arm, she was already low on aura and had been weakened from fighting both the Grimm and the White Fang. So really, all Adam did was finish her off. As for the robot he defeated in the Black Trailer, as I said, that was an outdated model that was gonna be replaced soon precisely because it wasn't powerfull enough to withstand the heat of battle.

When you look at things in context, then those two examples that make Adam a badass, really aren't all that impressive.

Another example: canned lion hunting. Taking down a lion, an apex predator, during a hunt might seem as impressive. But when you look at the context (in canned hunts, the animals are tied up to trees, released into small enclosures or lured to a certain spot with food and the hunter often shoots from car while being instructed by a guide who is more often then not a professional big game hunter.), its not impressive anymore. Adam's fighting skills are similiar in this regard. While impressive at first sight, once context is added, its actually not all that amazing.
