User blog comment:VedranTheII/At what point is a writer like Cardin Winchester?/@comment-11188061-20150526023219/@comment-3257939-20150526050515

Let's consider that he has been written as the chosen one since he has a lot of potential:


 * Learns really quick AKA classic shonen anime protagonist trope where the character does in two minutes what others take years to achieve.


 * Has a lot of aura which apparently is something amazing despite he goes down with two turkeys to the chest.


 * His Semblance has been hinted to be completely badass. How? That was a glimpse of his Semblance! -DVD Commentary. Ok, so completely deflecting a punch and healing your entire wounds at the same time was just a glimpse of what he's truly capable of?

Jaune is indeed your everyday man but given the way they're writing his abilities, I doubt greatly that the weak but smart tactician Jaune Arc of Volume 1 will be the real one at the end. Instead, Miles and Kerry might decide to fix his weaknesses by giving him over the top abilities that come from natural talent or some deus ex machina.
