Superpowered Short Dramas

Thirteen series where someone can do what nobody else can. The widest spread of any trope shelf, from 13 episodes to 91, so check the count on the individual series rather than trusting the shelf average.

How this page was built

Editorial policy

The 19 series on this page carry Superpowered as a trope label in the catalogue of the platform that publishes them. We do not tag series ourselves, which means this page is exactly as complete, and as inconsistent, as the platforms' own labelling. Episode counts and runtimes are read from each platform's listing for that specific series. We do not score series and we publish no rating of our own, because nobody here has watched all 19 of them. One thing we cannot tell you: no platform publishes a dependable finished/ongoing flag, so a series that wrapped last year and one still posting episodes look identical to us. Where a card here says still releasing, read it as “we have not seen an ending”, not as a confirmed schedule.
