May relate to How Much More Can He Take?, the magic and blunt force are hard to visibly indicate how much damage is being taken so you can fudge it and say they are super tough, but it's hard to see someone get stabbed or shot and not have it visibly look like they got a serious injury.
Basically, characters can survive a ridiculous amount of blunt force damage or magic attacks, but when it comes to weapons like guns and swords, they're suddenly just as vulnerable as any normal human.
Using Naruto as example, no matter how strong they get, a kunai can still kill them.
