Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for sci-fi fans, action fans and animation lovers. If you loved INVINCIBLE or Smallville, start here.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
2 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 10 hours in all.
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • It's in Chinese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

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.
