10 Most Iconic Shonen Anime Power-Ups, Ranked
When it comes to the anime medium, no genre is more popular than shonen. Initially targeted toward the male teenage demographic, shonen anime has become an international phenomenon that now appears on millions of TV screens around the world, due in large part to its ability to consistently spawn hit series like Dragon Ball Z, One Piece, and Demon Slayer.
Although there is plenty of variety in the shonen genre, one thing that is part of almost every single major shonen franchise is high-stakes action, and as a result, the medium's most popular characters often undergo substantial power-ups. These power-ups have spawned some of the most iconic moments, scenes and narrative developments in anime history, cementing their status as one of the most important tropes in shonen media.
