Dive into the world of “To Be Hero X,” where wisdom, humor, and emotion collide! This post celebrates the unforgettable lines from the series that resonate with fans and fuel creativity. Get ready for a dose of laughter, motivation, and heroics!
What is a hero? A beam of light in the midst of darkness. A savior at the moment of crisis. That being of perfection in the hearts of the people.
The anime begins with this quote about heroes, conveying the theme of the series and the major role of heroes responsible for making the story appealing and understandable.
In this era where heroes are forged by trust, everyone creates heroes.. And everyone can become heroes.
The anime was released without much hype, and yet it has become one of the most popular hits from the spring season of 2025. It’s a series where heroes aren’t usually born or inherit superpowers. The primary reason for a hero’s success mainly depends upon their public image and admiration.
The perfect hero, Nice.
Lin Ling quotes that resonate well with our lives:
No matter how perfect you are right now, one day you, too, will become old and ugly, and be replaced by someone else!
The moment when Lin Ling is kicked out of his job and resents the fact that he remained a loser despite living in a world where heroes are made out of people’s trust and belief. He envied the hero ‘Nice’ for being perfect and successful.
Despite knowing her all these years, I regret to say that I only truly understood her at her last moment.
Seeing this moment in the anime was one of the best feelings that most of the shows fail to provide. Moon being the idol and a celebrity superhero, kept herself from living the life she wanted. Even after Ling comes across the reality about Moon and that she is more than what people know her for, he falls for her even further. This departure meant a lot to him and might cause Lin Ling to go through several character development phases.
Actually, Moon has always been.. my goddess.
She was the one thing he constantly kept an eye on. His dream girl.
I don’t know when it started, but Moon became an indispensable part of my life. She gave me encouragement. She gave me hope. Hope that I could become outstanding. Hope that I could become a hero.. by her side. protecting her.
Moon is a typical girl who admires and enjoys exploring the world and visiting new places, and her life changes for good when Nice, the superhero, saves her from a potential accident. The two continued to be couples from that moment and people loved their relationship. Lin Ling was one of those fans.
So this is what it feels like to be a hero.
Most of us go through our lives taking care of our activities and grinding to be a better self. The anime resonates well with the fact that every one of us had once imagined becoming a superhero and saving the world. Lin Ling turns out to be that lucky guy.
I’ve already become the hero who lives in everyone’s hearts.
I believe I can become outstanding. I believe that one day, I’ll be able to protect those who are worth protecting. I believe… that in this world where heroes are forged by trust, even a nobody has the possibility of becoming a hero.
People build heroes and heroes have to be very good at their work to continue garnering the trust and love of the masses.
Right now, I am Nice.
Although it was an accident, Lin couldn’t have asked for me, as it was more than a dream come true for him. Becoming a superhero and living the life he also hoped for.
I never would’ve thought that one day I’d be able to spend so much time alone with her. To make the impossible possible. Isn’t that what you’ve always demanded of me?
Miss J – When have I ever said that to you?
The reply from Miss J was epic!
Moon (Xiao Yueqing) quotes and her signature lines:
Being alive means experiencing many challenges. but please don’t lose faith.
I’m tired of being some accessory to Nice.
I really want to thank you this time. Thank you for putting up with my terrible attitude. Thank you for listening patiently to my complaints. Thank you for coming up with so many ideas to cheer me up. These past few days with you.. I was happier than in all of the last several years. I’m not sure why, but… I feel sad parting with you. Nevertheless, I must bid you farewell. – Xiao Yueqing
People who have dreams sparkle with light. Be the best version of yourself. Believe in yourself.
Other quotes from different characters of the series:
Don’t forget, it’s the power of trust that changes and shapes the world. If the believers say you’re Nice, then you’re Nice. If they believe that you can do it. – Miss J
You, too, will be in the same position as him one day. You’ll be faced with a choice. – Miss J
Honesty is one of the most important qualities in maintaining a romantic relationship. – Enlighter
Turns out, my dream of being a hero was shattered long ago.
People’s trust really is cheap. People will only believe the things that they want to believe… Even if it’s a lie. But there is one thing people cannot lie to themselves about. And that is… fear!
To Be Hero X turned out to be the gemstone we’ve all been looking for in the anime industry during these recent times. The series contains several quotes which makes one consider them as some lessons. A world where Heroes are created out of love and admiration from the people. Although it doesn’t make much sense when talked about, the anime does a great job of highlighting its uniqueness.
Solo Leveling turned out to be the best anime so far in 2025, but several other series like Devil May Cry and To Be Hero X deserve a watch!
