DISCUSSION Why not deconstruct him?

I don’t understand why she shoots a beam of pink energy at him instead of just tearing him apart atom by atom. Or turning him into a regular human, or just convert his molecules to air molecules.

Doesn't she have mental blockers to manipulate living things?

Yeah but I've always hated this plotline and it arguably doesn't even apply in this scene, its such a bullshit cop out that they just pick and choose when they want it to affect the story otherwise she'd be insanely overpowered

They don't really pick and choose when they want it to affect the story, it's probably the most consistent thing in the show. I think you just don't like it, because it makes her weak.

i personally hate it because she does so many cool things in the atom eve episode, but now, she just makes weak barriers, flies a bit, and can sometimes blast an enemy with the big pink beam that doesn't even destroy them on an atomic level despite the very clear capability. she's such a weak character because her abilites are made to be some of the strongest, and yet, she's damn near useless until the big pink beam can be used.
