00:00It's a common trigger used in anime to unlock a great amount of power to deal with a desperate situation.
00:06Many of these rage moments gave rise to some very epic transformations in anime.
00:11Here is a list of the best transformations driven by rage.
00:20Despite being an ecchi anime, this is an impressive rage transformation.
00:24The story revolves around a protagonist being revived as a demon to serve a high-ranking female demon.
00:32This is about a typical schoolboy who suddenly goes from zero to a hero.
00:37He is usually a fun, relaxed guy, which is what makes this rage transformation all the more impactful.
00:43The villain here was in serious trouble, especially when a red dragon tells you that you have made a mistake and starts quoting bible verses.
00:50He is lucky the girl was only kidnapped and not killed.
00:54This is the peak of emotional accumulation for our main protagonist.
01:08He realizes that all his friends are forgetting him, all his loved ones are dying, his entire livelihood is in despair.
01:15Bearing in mind he is still just a teenager, it's no surprise he was collapsing under all that pressure.
01:20However, the final straw was the slap from his mother, snapping him into a rage towards the villain, the root cause of all the suffering he is undergoing.
01:29However, ironically, this rage-fueled transformation is only powering the enemy further,
01:34as the antagonist's source of power is fear and hatred itself.
01:38Attack on Titan is a very popular anime, and our protagonist has been raging almost all his life.
02:00But now that he is empowered with the titan form, it is a lot less annoying and much more epic.
02:08This is a crucial moment in the anime with multiple key events.
02:12We finally find out the identity of one of the titan shifters, and Eren faces his first betrayal and has to overcome the emotional barrier of confronting a former ally.
02:25But, even the titan form was insufficient to take out a trained titan, but his anger and frustration alone allowed him to enter a berserk state,
02:33over-driving his titan abilities to regenerate rapidly enough to catch up to the female titan and obliterate it.
02:48This series is sometimes compared to Attack on Titan.
02:52It's set in a world where a virus wiped out the majority of human population, allowing vampires to enslave the surviving humans.
02:59The protagonist is essentially trying to take revenge by wiping out all vampires.
03:05He is special compared to many other protagonists, as he has many inhabitants within him.
03:10Demons, angels, and a ton of salt, giving him various power boosts depending on what he transforms into.
03:16His first incomplete transformation is triggered on the battlefield, when his friends were involuntarily serving blood to the vampires.
03:24Although, some of them did seem like they were rather enjoying it.
03:29Most transformations are usually epic, but this appeared to be more on the painful side.
03:35Having trees sprout out of your back and bleeding black substance from one eye isn't the easiest transformation,
03:42but the ensuing battle was definitely worth the pain.
03:45What do you, uh...
03:46We...
03:48Ah!
03:52It's so sad that you can live.
03:54This is what happens when the Dragon Balls get tainted and the bad Shenron comes out instead.
04:06Most characters on this list had a reasonable reason to become enraged.
04:10However, Kaido is so powerful that he rages about being alive.
04:14He must be really bored with life.
04:16One Piece has some outrageous characters, and the ones at the top are the Four Emperors,
04:22the most notorious and powerful pirate captains in the world.
04:26Kaido is known as the strongest creature on land, air, and sea,
04:29and it's no surprise after seeing this epic dragon form.
04:32It will surely be interesting to see how exactly the smaller lizard, Snake Man, is going to win against this monster.
04:45Mob going into his over 100% state has occurred in the past.
04:50However, this is the first time he has entered this state out of pure rage.
04:54One of the reasons this is such a great anime is the plot twists.
04:58No one was expecting a sudden change in pace when the majority of this episode was more relaxed and focused on character development.
05:05It's saddening to see a boy making so much progress to improve his emotional state having to experience such a traumatic event.
05:13The entire scene was animated well,
05:16especially the matching soundtrack that really emphasises the horrifying moment of his house and family in flames.
05:24With the level of power he has,
05:29he could have easily destroyed the planet if he had gone berserk.
05:33Luckily, his anger was contained and directed towards the psychics who he believes caused the fire.
05:48Naruto's key source of power is essentially him losing control,
05:52tapping into the Nine Tails' power and letting his animal instincts destroy everything in his path.
05:59However, the rage this time was on a completely different scale.
06:03Seeing his potential love interest almost killed is probably as bad as taking Ramin away for good.
06:09At a time when the Nine Tails was still scary,
06:12this was one of the best moments in the series.
06:14He transformed at a very rapid pace,
06:17unleashing as much as eight of the Tails,
06:20and for the first time becoming closer to the Nine Tails' true form.
06:24The immense power was far too great even for Pain,
06:28who single-handedly flattened an entire village.
06:31Hard to imagine that this was still just half of Nine Tails' power.
06:34This is arguably the most iconic transformations of all time.
06:49His closest friend has just been blown into bits,
06:51and ironically,
06:52Frieza ends up creating what he feared the most,
06:55the legendary Super Saiyan.
07:02The money.
07:03The rage and hatred over his best friend killed in front of him
07:07resulted in a transformation that was so grand,
07:10even the environment was resonating to his rage.
07:13Surrounded by lightning,
07:15the sky darkening,
07:16and the oceans trembling.
07:18It's as if the whole universe was coming forth to a historical awakening.
07:23It's unfortunate that this legendary transformation
07:25has now been reduced to just a tingly feeling in your back.
07:28The most chilling rage in anime,
07:44and one of the few full transformations without a scream.
07:47This was a monumental moment in the series.
07:51A kind-hearted boy transitions to the side of darkness,
07:54sacrificing everything he has in exchange for the power
07:57to destroy the enemy that killed...
07:59The world's being destroyed in an air is like the Cannes of the military.
08:00The world's being destroyed,
08:01the world's being destroyed,
08:03and it's in the same way.
08:04The world's being destroyed.
08:18The world is so grand,
08:19and the universe is so extremely important to show you a part of the time.
