To Be Hero X episode 13 recap

The episode kicked off with a young girl working out at a gym, with a trainer helping her. After clearing a few sets, she received a water bottle from her trainer. Interestingly, she lost her cap while collecting the bottle. As soon as that happened, her long, pink hair became visible.
Others at the gym thought she was too cute for the gym. Resultantly, the girl's Trust Value plummeted, and she became angry. Afterward, the episode delved into a flashback to reveal the girl's origin. According to the episode, the pink-haired girl named Loli was fascinated by Liu Yuwen's graduation speech.
Since then, she has wanted to become a hero and serve society. However, when she told her mother about it, she brushed it off. Rather, Loli's mother gushed over her daughter's cuteness and recorded a video of her saying she wanted to be a hero. Loli was irked by her mother's response and wondered why no one took her seriously.

Twelve years later, the situation remained the same; Loli was still considered cute and the subject of her mother's adoration. However, the girl resented being treated as such. The episode also delved into a flashback and showed her courageous spirit, as she saved her friend, Da Xiong, from a bully.
Nevertheless, Loli realized that she could never achieve her dream as long as people recognized her as a cute person. She considered cutting off her long hair for a moment. However, she quickly retracted that thought, as she refused to change herself for others.
At that moment, Loli saw a news report on TV about FOMO officially ending its partnership with DJ Shindig hero. According to the episode, DJ Shinding was the top-ranking hero fifteen years ago. However, his performance faltered since then. Seeing DJ Shindig's appearance, Loli realized she had to hide her face to become a hero.

As such, the girl decided to build a battlesuit, since she was already adept at fiddling with technology. She headed to a lab downstairs and worked with various instruments to create a battlesuit. Wearing her new identity, Hero Loli embarked on a mission to shatter the stereotypes.
Elsewhere, a girl was chased by a creepy person. She hid in an alley and desperately sought help. At that moment, Loli arrived at the scene. Loli assured the girl that she would help her. However, she couldn't do much against a formidable opponent. Eventually, Loli's helmet came off.
As soon as the unknown person saw Loli's actual face, he became embarrassed and left. Meanwhile, the other girl was surprised to see a "cute girl" under the battlesuit. The remark somehow pained Loli, and she left. After returning home, she discovered that her father had found out about her inventions.

Loli's father told her not to indulge in such fantasies. Rather, if she truly wanted to build something, she could do so at their Glimmer Lab. Loli was thrilled by such an offer. Interestingly, her childhood friend, Da Xiong, worked at the lab. He showed her around the Lab premises and explained how it had been operational since Year 16.
At the Glimmer Lab, Loli surprisingly met the same girl from the other night. The girl named Wang Nuonuo was delighted to see Loli and explained that she worked at the lab as an engineer. Loli and Wang quickly became friends and opened up to each other about their struggles. Apparently, Wang went through the same societal prejudice because of her good looks.

Initially, she was posted as a receptionist at the lab, despite having excellent qualifications. Later, Loli's father discovered her talent and guided her transfer. That's why, Wang looked up to Loli's father and called him a good man. Later, the duo went out for a drink. Interestingly, they saw the same person from the other night peeking at them from the other section of the street.
Loli sketched a puke face on the glassboard with ketchup and asked Wang to make fun of the person. Afterward, the duo returned to the lab. Wang told Loli that she had to become a hero. Meanwhile, DJ Shindig unexpectedly entered the Glimmer Lab. The episode ended with the former top-ranked hero ready to start a "party."
