To Be Hero X has been a sensational donghua since its release. The donghua is not based on a single protagonist but rather on the top ten heroes of the society, where the trust value rules supreme. It is crucial to earn the trust of the people to gain superpowers. If people believe that a person can lift a building or break the sound barrier, they will end up achieving it.

The heroes are always looking to be the top-ranked hero. Hero X has held the rank for multiple years, and no one has been able to dethrone him. While the other heroes of the top ten ranking have their abilities revealed to the public, Hero Xโ€™s powers remain a secret. It is not only his powers but also his identity. However, with whatever information revealed to him, here is a detailed view of it.

What Are Hero Xโ€™s Abilities?

Hero X possesses the ability to warp reality, and it does not matter whether it is a living or non-living thing. He can teleport enemies into an alternate reality with a snap of his fingers. Hero X rules supreme in all those realities and is able to unleash shockwaves, alter animation styles, and make things appear from his imagination. The extent of his true powers remains unknown, but he never stresses in a battle as he absolutely overwhelms the enemies from the beginning.

However, Hero X’s powers are not absolute, as it has been well established that powers change based on the Trust Value. However, winning the competition between the top 10 heroes might cause a power shift for Hero X. While his existing powers will remain, he might also end up getting new powers or gaining access to a better version of his current abilities thanks to the Trust Value. It is one of the perks having having a donghua with no static abilities.

How Does Hero Xโ€™s Powers Work?

Hero Xโ€™s powers are activated by a snap of his fingers. All the abilities he possesses can be activated using a snap of his fingers. He can make his enemies, and himself, enter a wall and in the next instant, come out, making the enemy trapped inside the wall forever. Hero X can disassemble objects, change their properties, and direct them towards his enemies.

In the realities he creates, he can alter the gravity, making others unable to face him. He does not even need to change his attire as he can change it with a snap of his fingers. Unfortunately, every time Hero X unleashes his powers, the animators have to put on extra work with how colorful and detailed the alternate realities are. Not only are the enemies, but Hero X is also a menace to the animators!

Does Hero X Have Any Weaknesses?

To Be Hero X, or the official site of the donghua, has not revealed any weakness of the topmost hero. However, Hero X seems to control everything with his fingers. It might raise the question of what will happen if he loses his hands like Jujutsu Kaisenโ€™s Aoi Todo. If his abilities require the snap of his fingers to activate, then it might become the end of his hero career if he loses his hands. Unfortunately, severing his hands seems like a distant dream since it is next to impossible to touch him in a battle.

How The Current Hero X Came About?

Before the present Hero X, there was actually a Heroine X, Bowa. Bowa was a rival to Queen, even though they both belonged to the DOS organization. Queen, initially known as Liu Yuwei, became a prodigy by becoming the youngest one to enter the top ten hero rankings. On the other hand, Bowa became Heroine X after she defeated the previous Hero X, Extro.

The former Heroine X wields a giant axe, which has the ability to transform, sending massive shockwaves through the Earth. She has inhuman strength and great speed, which were showcased during his fight against Extro. However, when the 16th Heroes Tournament began, the battle was believed to be between Bowa and Queen, but a mysterious character defeated Bowa with a snap of a finger, ending her reign as Heroine X.
