Can I have some examples of what stories this secret is referring to? Somebody mentioned X-Men, but I never really paid attention to any of the other mutants beyond the main cast like Cyclops, Beast, Storm, etc., which doesn't really feel like it meets the child soldiers bit.

Maybe Sailor Moon? JRPGs that usually have teen characters? OP, pls halp.

Oh god, just about every piece of media ever, honestly.

Most anime and JRPGs, of course. Plenty of WRPGs (Even if the MC isn't young, they almost always have bg NPCs who'd fit). Lots of superheroes/sidekicks (Spiderman, comics Kid!Loki, Young Avengers, etc.). Ender's Game. ASOIAF. Most YA lit (Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Lord of the Flies, etc.). Plenty of TV shows and cartoons (Buffy, Walking Dead, AtLA, etc.)

Plus a lot of times this is the origin story for a now-adult character.

I'm not the secret maker, but my mind immediately went to anime like Naruto. It's probably not that one, because the child soldiers thing is not disguised and ninja does not equal superhero, but yeah.

Maybe a better example would be Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
