I used to watch anime when i was around your age too. I can understand where you are coming from. :D
It is wonderful to have a strong imagination, and unfortunately we tend to lose it as we age. As you have said, back then, I used to also want to have those powers, and would dream of bringing justice for the oppressed. I used to also imagine what it would be like to be immortal, how brave, daring would you be. To be honest it was once I begin to study Islam, that I realized I could actually attain those powers and attain immortality. I knew about Jannah, with it's gardens and rivers, but once I learned more about it, read about what our Blessed Prophet(pbuh) told us of it, that one day it actually hit me - It is not just a fantasy- I T...I S...P O S S I B I B L E!
In Jannah -
You are given a new Body, a more powerful/perfect body. So every weakness is removed, you don't age, get sick, tired, thirsty, hungry, you don't sleep, your bones don't break, your skin can't be cut, scratched. All your senses, eyes, ears, smell, taste, all are strong, perfect, without any weakness. You can see, watch the wings of a butterfly a 100 miles away. You can stand in the middle of a sun without feeling any pain, discomfort. You don't answer the call of nature, you don't sweat, your sweat is actually your own cologne/perfume, imagine that, you won't need to pay $100+ dollars for it, you have your own cologne/perfume producing cells in your skin. You can sit for hours and just imagine and wonder about this.
Power of Thought - whatever you desire in Jannah is only a thought away, just imagine it and it is done. Imagine for-example, building a great palace, or your favorite type of car with just your imagination, changing it as you will, shaping it as you wish. Imagine learning all that you need to learn, knowing all that you need to know. Having a mind that is strong and sharp, that can compute faster than any computer. All this is mainly just talking about the physical level. The Spritual/Emotional level is just beyond imagination.
They will have there all that their hearts desire and in which their eyes find delight.
You will remain in it timelessly, forever. (Surat az-Zukhruf: 71)
Praise be to Allah, Who has removed all sadness from us. Truly our Lord is Ever-Forgiving, Ever-Thankful:
He Who has lodged us, out of His favor, in the Abode of Permanence, where no weariness or fatigue affects us." (Sura 35, 34-35)

Jannah should be our number 1 Goal. As you continue working towards this goal, start learning and practicing Islam, As you learn more about the Prophet(pbuh), the sahaba, you will come to the realization that this was also their goal, and it was their strong desire to attain this goal, the goal of pleasing Allah and hoping for his Jnnah, that gave them the amazing qualities we them know for. It was the desire to seek the Pleasure of Allah swt that made Umar(ra) and Abu Bakr(ra) give their wealth, time, energy, and life for Islam. It was this desire that gave Bilal(ra) the strength to endure what he went through. It was this desire that gave Ali(ra), Zubair(ra), Sa'ad(ra), Khalid(ra) the courage and determination to strive in the path of Allah.
So a time must come Bro. Osman, when we must invest and utilize our imagination in This world and This life in the way of Allah swt, to assist the Deen, help the Ummah, starting with your family. We must always keep Allah swt and Aakhirah in mind, as we live and act in this life. This is were our inspiration, strength, vision, courage comes from. This is the path of the Strangers. We must use our imagination and seek ways to better please Allah swt, better serve the Ummah.
Don't assume you are without power right now, with true intentions and determination, with Allah swt on your side you can do great things. You can be an agent of peace in this life, you can help the oppressed, the orphans in this life. You can use your imagination, come up with a plan to collect some money together from family and friends, and help a family in need, you can help build a well for a Muslim village that doesn't have clean water. You can help feed orphans in Palestine, in Afghanistan. You can give dawah and help bring someone to Peace(Islam), you can motivate, mentor children in your community.
I remember i once was sitting with my nephews, they were telling me about these characters from these shows, and I could see the desire in their eyes as they described the powers of these characters. I told them, you now you can become even more power than them. You can have all those powers and even greater ones if you wish. They were so excited that they asked me how, that is when I told them - In Jannah - you will have all that you want, you can have any power you want, that is what Allah swt promised for those who enter Jannah.
The way to be Grateful for the gift of imagination is to use it to find ways to Please Allah swt in this life. This is it bro.
May Allah swt Guide us all to the best of this life and the next. Ameen
