Overview

In a world full of brilliant heroes, it’s the trust of fans that turns heroes into superheroes. If a hero loses the people’s trust, they lose their special abilities. Trust value is collected, quantified, and used to determine a hero’s ranking, displayed on their wrist. Every two years, the top heroes go to a tournament to fight, determine new trust values, and earn their rankings.

Why fans love it

In this 2025 animated series, power is not a birthright or a scientific accident. It is a currency fueled by public opinion and tracked numerically on the skin. The narrative positions the superhero as a performer reliant on the collective faith of an audience. When the admiration shifts, the ability to act vanishes, forcing characters into a constant cycle of performance and maintenance just to remain functional.

This Chinese production channels an intense energy through its vibrant visual style and high-stakes tournament format. The action serves as a brutal clearinghouse where rankings are recalculated and reputations are stripped away in real time. Nie Xiying and the rest of the cast navigate a brutal system where the difference between a champion and a liability is measured by how effectively they can sway the crowd. It is a stark look at the fragility of influence in a world where popularity dictates survival.
