In Queen's arc we got teased of the first woman X and the mysterious woman who is in the sky of the opening. In ep 24 we got teased DOS top hero who won another hero tournament in the year 8 which was the last time anyone saw the first woman X. The mysterious 3 eyed woman design shares similarities with Queen and summons cards just like she does. The first woman X was not recorded in the main event timeline yet the anime teased us. She is not Ms. BrazingFire since she failed to become X in year 28 when Queen graduated. DOS was formed in year 8 which is the same year when first woman X last seen meaning it is possible first woman X and mysterious 3 eyed woman is Queen's mom, yet she looks young and currently working with Rock but not with Mickey based on ep 12 information. There is a higher chance Queen's mom could be an alien which explains a lot of who was Big Johnny's alien pod buddy that was teased in ep 19. Based on how Big Johnny has a strong bond with Queen when meeting her in ep 11 there is a chance she might be in the alien pod with him when spaceship had crashed. The X shaped hole was teased near the alien pods meaning Mickey must have kidnapped a young Queen and her mom was angry because of it .

2025-09-18 07:58:52 +0000 UTCI want to believe that the Nice we see at the end has accepted his flaws and let go of his need to be perfect and reverted back to the person he was when he started, but he's probably some sort of fear zombie or something

2025-09-16 21:57:38 +0000 UTCSo bit of an explainer based on translations of stuff in the episode: Everyone is questioning how Nice is alive but most assume he was resurrected by Fear power. Because Lin Ling got to Rank #10 under Nice's identity, the trust value still applied to him when he was resurrected making him the new #10. So what about Lin Ling? He gained his own equal Trust Value when people believed in him for saving Moon and realizing he was the Hero under the Nice persona for the past year that deserved that rank. So Lin Ling became #9 while Nice is #10. BUT what about E-Soul then? Nice's resurrection at the last minute actually knocked him out of the Top 10 because the Ruin's Incident, presumably, caused him to drop down in ranks and he ultimately had more Trust Value than the #11, but less than Nice, so Lin Ling moved down into #9 while Nice took #10 and E-Soul slid down to #11 kicking him out of the tournament which is why he shows up behind Rock with a bit of aggressive body language, he likely was very much not happy. The end credits of the episode are likely a teaser for Season 2, which if I heard correctly the Director said something to the effect of he wants it out before the end of 2026, but I have no source for that and if I recall the person I heard it from, on Reddit, said the Director said it on a livestream after the last episode aired. So take that bit with a grain of salt. Also, Rock is not Zero, Rock is Zero's ideology living on after Zero's death and he wants to resurrect Zero using Dragon Boy. He's been hiding under the Commissions nose the whole time and is the actual biggest threat, but they don't see it and assume X is the biggest threat. If the end credits actually are a teaser for Season 2, then Dragon Boy does not become the next Zero, but some woman definitely seems like she's gonna take that role and give even X a run for his money. Also, bit of speculation, people think the reason Lin Ling signed up with Treeman might be because Shand promised to revive Moon if he accomplishes a goal. And if the montage in the middle of the episode is factual in some way, it looks like E-Soul was actually after Lin Ling and Moon got in the way of the shot, and then Ghostblade saved Lin Ling. Likely was tracking E-Soul's movements and being as sharp as he is might've deduced that Lin Ling would be a target. It still doesn't explain how they got to that deserted island or how they knew Moon was there unless they snuck in through the portal Lin Ling opened, both of them are speedsters so it's not impossible.

2025-09-16 18:44:16 +0000 UTCAll about dumping on Nice but when you think about it it all goes back to Rock, he was responsible for killing the son of Treeman CEO so he could create he's own E-Soul back then, Treeman CEO got so turned by hatered/revenge he started using fear and turned the innocent boy inspired by Hero Smile into corpo pawn with fake heroic acts...So while i do hate what Nice became i can't really blame him 100%

2025-09-16 13:45:18 +0000 UTCSo for a little trivia, on BiliBili’s website they hold legitimate irl voting polls for the top 10 heroes, lowest hero gets punished (E soul was lowest when ep24 was released and got removed from the tournament, and was replaced) by the OG nice who was number 5 at the time so technically it’s a series where the fans do actually have influence. Which is one of the sickest things I’ve seen in a long time. Edit:You can see it at the end of the episode btw during the start of the ending
