I'm only partway through (the show progresses slowly, even though I'm watching an abridged version that cuts out a bunch of flashbacks and such), but so far the growth mindset & desire to be stronger have been hitting my S1 much more than the "person of destiny" stuff. Basically the reverse of trope #2 in Swimmer963's list - lots of attention on the "practice to become awesome" part while the "inherently awesome" part comes up in passing or off-screen.

It's possible that the story as a whole suffers from the problem that you're pointing out, but that's not the message that my system 1 gets as I watch it.
