The world has been reshaped by the emergence of "heroes"—individuals possessing extraordinary abilities who strive for global peace. In Japan, 14-year-old Teru Momijiyama lives a double life as Shy, the nation's relatively inexperienced hero. Burdened by self-doubt and a naturally shy demeanor, Shy grapples with the weight of expectations that accompany her public persona. The series follows her journey as she navigates increasingly complex threats alongside international allies. It explores themes of personal growth, responsibility, and the evolving definition of heroism in a world grappling with unprecedented power. The narrative centers on Shy’s efforts to overcome her insecurities while striving to fulfill her role as a protector, examining the human cost and collaborative nature of safeguarding humanity.
