Is it just lazy writing? Do these sorts of things even exist outside of Asian media? I don't remember any western heroes have super forms before anime brainrotted the youth
>>287297254>worldbreaker hulk>rune king Thor>sundipped superman Western comics have tons of power up forms for heroes
>>287297322>2007>2004>2001
>>287297254Genuinely read more media then. BS powerups are ubiquitous. Even Sun Wukong from Journey to the West has his giant demon monkey form.
>>287297254Guess what? Western comic industry is dead, while manga/anime is thriving. Guess the real shit industry is comics. I watched Invincible a few weeks ago and the animation was so poor compared to JJK and modem One Piece too. So apparently the west can't even animate.
>>287297404>Journey to the West isn't Asian mediaWow you're a fucking retard nice job lol>>287297431Western comics suck, what's new?
>>287297322Hulk, Thor, Shazam, and so on in general ARE already the powered up "super forms" of Bruce Banner, Donald Blake, Billy Batson, etc.
If you disregard apotheosis of certain pagan figures and the Christian tendency for the Holy Spirit to bless someone with strength there's the Warp Spasm which is just a traditional berserker super form.
>>287297431The western comic industry is not dead, people are just retards who compare all of Japan's industry to two western publishers who aren't even the biggest comic publisher. And even within those two publishers, they're only talking about superheroes, ignoring the plethora of non-superhero stuff they publish.
>>287297467I'm saying that it's an old concept. If you want examples >>287297322 has some, if that doesn't count because of age Cosmic Spiderman started out on 1989. Onslaught came out on 1996. There's probably more if I cared enough to look.
>>287297254Slaine has his warped form and that came out in 1983
y'all newfags replying to a troll thread
>>287297254sun wukong got a power-up after being trapped in that pot of godly fire for 50 days
