Eleceed Tropes + Expectations
Let’s take a sneak peek into different features and tropes that the anime can adapt without giving too much away to fans who haven’t read the manhwa.
Any anime with superpower humans often features a school or academy where the characters either train or join to get better.
Eleceed also has an Academy of Adventure, which the Awakened group runs. Young Awakened students with unpolished skills come here to become stronger, and these students are offered scholarships by the senior Awakened.
The top academy is called World Academy, which admits only the best students from different academies worldwide.
Kayden is ranked as the number one Awakened in the world. An already established rule states that none of the Top 10 Ranking Awakened is allowed to fight each other, creating stability and peace, which is essential when fighting against evil.
One of the biggest tropes in the Eleceed manhwa is the secret nature of work for an Awakened. They remain unknown amongst the public and quietly fight evil, and this masquerade is necessary to protect their identity.
Happenstance dictates Kayden fought the top 3 ranked Awakened and got beaten up badly. The rankings become fuzzy as it narrows down, which makes perfect sense for the damage done to Kayden.
Jiwoo is shown in the manhwa as a kind man and a child prodigy. He can master techniques rather quickly which generally requires many years. It also helps that his teacher is Kayden.
Jiwoo loves cats and, in general, doesn’t have many friends until he is realized the supreme powers he holds within. He changes a lot when he meets an Awakened similar to his age.
