Yes, I brought anime into this. I dont like their flawed logics. Anyway, what I forgot to put on this one is that in order for earth to protect himself from lightning, he has to use the right kind of earth and/or rock. Otherwise it could melt on him or even blow up and the shrapnel or debree could kill him. Otherwise he makes up for it just with mass. If there s enough rock, or enough dirt, doesnt matter what kind of rock or earth it is.
