📖 SYNOPSIS
In "Superkid," Mitsuo's life changes when he encounters Superman, an extraterrestrial peacekeeper. Superman bestows upon Mitsuo a helmet granting superhuman strength, a cape for flight, and a badge enabling underwater breathing and communication. Now a "Perman," Mitsuo joins a group of young heroes dedicated to aiding others. To protect their secret identities, which are vital to their safety, they utilize doppelganger robots to cover their absences. The Permans must keep their true selves hidden, as exposure risks brain destruction. Despite the challenges of maintaining secrecy and the potential flaws of their robotic replacements, the Permans strive to use their newfound powers to help those in need and uphold peace.
