To Be Hero X episode 1 recap
The episode begins with Lin Ling, a young employee at an advertising company, demonstrating a promotional clip to his boss. It's a short video, showcasing the exploits of the hero, Nice, with an explanation on the concept of hero and how everyone can become one if they have people's trust.
The boss dislikes the project as it includes phrases such as "anyone can become a hero," while it should chiefly highlight their client, Nice. The next moment, he receives a call from Miss. J, Nice's manager who mentions how their agency has already received the promo the other night.
The boss lashes out at Lin Ling and fires him on the spot. The young boy spends his time on the roof and thinks about his future. He realizes how difficult it is to become a hero. At this moment, his favorite hero, Nice, emerges from an advertisement board and jumps off the roof.
The sight shocks Lin Ling, who doesn't know what to do. Meanwhile, Miss J. and others rush to the scene and take the boy to a discreet place, where they ask him whether Nice said something to him before he jumped off. Lin Ling said the hero said nothing except that he did his signature hand gesture.
After canceling a few upcoming shows, Miss J. realizes that Lin Ling looks somewhat like Nice. As such, she transforms Lin Ling into Nice. She also fakes the boy's death to ensure nobody would suspect anything. Lin Ling is unsure whether he can pull it off.
However, Miss J. explains that people's trust in Nice will endow him with strength. Gradually, Lin Ling loses his own identity and becomes Nice. His physical attributes and powers also change. One day, he goes to a program with Nice's girlfriend, Moon, where he tackles the host's direct questions. The host, Enlighter, seems to guess about Nice's original identity.
Therefore, he wants to expose him. However, Lin Ling aka Nice, perfectly answers his questions, which forces him to summon the ad agency's boss. The veteran man uses Fear Amplifier to absorb people's Fear and transform it into his powers. However, Nice channels his strength and convincingly defeats the man.
After that, Lin Ling aka Nice realizes that he has truly transformed into his favorite hero. Miss J. then takes the boy to Hero Tower, his new home. As Lin Ling/Nice enters his room, he finds Moon, the girlfriend of the original Nice, lying on the bed. However, on closer inspection, Lin Ling discovers that Moon has mysteriously died.
What to expect in To Be Hero X episode 2?
Considering how the episode ended on a cliffhanger, To Be Hero X episode 2 may explore Moon's death. Since it has happened at Nice's suite, the officials will likely try to apprehend him. There's a possibility that someone is trying to frame Nice, who is slowly collecting people's Trust Value and becoming popular.
Thus, someone may harbor deep animosity toward Nice, which is why they killed his girlfriend. At any rate, To Be Hero X will likely show Lin Ling informing Miss J. about the situation, who will try to come up with a plan to safeguard the boy.
