What happens at the intersection of You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry!, Shapeshifting (often of the involuntary kind) and Unstoppable Rage. Generally, the trope goes like this: Character X is angered or in pain or some specific trigger is invoked. X reaches their breaking point and transforms into something at least twice their normal size. Skin color usually changes as well. Stuff gets broken until there's nothing else to break or X gets talked down from their rage. Cue change back to X's normal state — unless Magic Pants are involved. This might result in Monster Modesty. If the subject is female, there's a good chance that they'll become an Amazonian Beauty and/or a Statuesque Stunner. For some reason, werewolves in modern fiction are often subject to this type of transformation, rather than (just) the full moon. Can involve a Superpowered Evil Side or a Jekyll & Hyde scenario. Berserk Buttons are often involved as well. May result in a Heroic RRoD or One-Winged Angel. Compare The Berserker for cases where the transformation is purely psychological. If this requires seeing yourself as the hulk, that's Self-Perception Shapeshifting. See also HULK MASH!-Up, One-Winged Angel, Limit Break, Super Mode, Turns Red, Growing Muscles Sequence and Living Mood Ring. Compare and contrast Working Out Their Emotions, where rage (or another similarly negative emotion) drives someone to get stronger the old fashion way. See also Traumatic Superpower Awakening. |

Mermaids of Eriana Kwai: When mermaids are angry, their eyes turn red, their teeth turn razor sharp, their skin turns to the colour of seaweed, and their ears grow pointy and long. The trope doesn't apply to mermen, who spend all their time in that form. | |

Samurai Jack: In the episode "Jack and the Smackback", Jack's first opponent is a man-ape creature named Gordo the Gruesome who does this after he gets angry enough; Jack still beats him. Likewise, the titular goofy dumb beast from "Jack and the Creature" undergoes a frankly horrific transformation into a gargantuan, crimson-furred razor-sporting abomination after Jack starts getting smacked around. |

Digimon: Mon example from Digimon Tamers: when Beelzemon kills Leomon, Takato becomes so furious it causes Guilmon to evolve into the highly unstable and uncontrollable Megidramon. Earlier in Digimon Adventure, Tai became obsessed with getting Agumon to digivolve to the ultimate level. The end result was SkullGreymon. |

In Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, Grimlock's alternate mode is somewhere between this and Super Mode. In-game, the transformation isn't involuntary and can't be done at will due to being experimented upon by Shockwave, but it does require Big Grim getting incredibly pissed to gain access to it and he does grow in size upon transforming. | |

Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys: About halfway through the series, Gor-illa gets an upgrade from an Unstoppable Rage to this at the hands of recurring antagonist Ajax, causing him to transform into the berserk King Kong Copy Gormungus whenever his rage builds high enough. In the same episode, one of Gor's initial opponents looks like an emaciated little bird-man alien about the size of Spydor. Gor expresses reluctance at fighting someone some small and harmless looking, whereupon Spydor angrily asserts that it's "dog-eat-dog" in this business. When Gor protests that he doesn't want to eat a dog, the alien grins a toothy grin... and then turns himself inside out, transforming into a hulking monstrosity that vaguely resembles a skinned gorilla with spikes growing out of it. |

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Calvin Zabo (Skye's father) has been using a homemade Psycho Serum on himself for decades. Therefore, even when he's not actively using it, he can achieve great feats of strength when angered. His catchphrase is "Let's not lose our heads." His actual serum is even more powerful, resulting in a small but striking physical transformation, and is activated by rage and a shot of adrenaline. Subverted with Robbie Reyes, a.k.a. Ghost Rider. When he gets angry at widespread looting during a blackout, Daisy warns him to keep calm so he doesn't "go all carrot top again." Robbie laughs, as the Rider has nothing to do with his emotional state. It only comes out when there's evil around, and even then Robbie can usually keep it contained until things get desperate. |

Superjail!: In "Terrorarium," Beleaguered Assistant Jared ends up chugging an entire bottle of super potent growth serum after going on an eating binge. When Alice enters his office, she notes the mess left by Jared's binging and calls him a pig; this is the final straw and Jared instantly transforms from a milquetoast secretary to a ripped, green Hulk-retary, challenging Alice to single combat in revenge for her years of giving him grief (and holding his own until the serum ultimately wears off). | |

In Breath of Fire IV, Ryu first transforms into his Kaiser form after he witnesses Captain Rosso kill some innocent children and send an invincible monster after him and his friends. Ryu then kills both the monster and Rosso, and it takes a Cooldown Hug from Nina for him to regain his senses. Afterward, he can transform into Kaiser at will, but it cannot be controlled until you finish a certain sidequest. | |

Say his mother has a fat belly button (or just call her a "dirty whore" in the English dub), and he grows huge muscles, goes berserk, and destroys anyone who crosses him. And that's after taking a long string of taunts without batting an eye. | |

One of Krieg's endgame abilities in Borderlands 2, "Release The Beast", has him mutate into a Badass Psycho when he activates Buzzaxe Rampage at 1/3 of his health. The mutation involves his left arm shriveling into a worthless stump while his torso and right arm grow to ridiculous size, giving him a massive boost in damage resistance as well as melee damage. | |

Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star is a minor version — pretty much every fight scene starts with him rip his jacket to shreds by tripling the size of his muscles (they're back by the next scene). Several mooks use their special abilities to increase in size, not that it helps any. | |

Shrinking Violent of Everyday Heroes has her transformation triggered with a blow to the nose. She can be snapped out of it via massive amounts of sugar. Unfortunately she's also a Type 1 Diabetic, which means a couple of days in the hospital after every Hulk Out, at best. Also, she gets smaller when she transforms. Her muscles contract and get denser, so even her strongest teammate can't hold her down. | |

Despite rage being a main theme, Asura from Asura's Wrath primarily averts this. He does, however, grow bigger arms that pack at least a thousand times more power in them in his Berserker form, his Mantra form and his Destructor form (Which also has a human-sized form, that basically is Asura mantra form, but with four extra arms and a rainbow aura instead of Asura's plain red Aura). | |

One World of Warcraft expansion introduces worgen, humans afflicted by a werewolf curse, as a playable race. While they eventually learn to shift between human and worgen form at will, entering combat immediately shifts them into worgen form.

Marty Monster from The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, "Monster Mart". At the start, he'd been having problems with his transformation to and from his monster form, until he gets stuck halfway. In the end, seeing Dr. McNinja in mortal peril is enough to knock down his psychological barriers and allow him to grow bigger than ever before. He inherited this from his father; the problem with his father (aside from always looking down on him) is the fact that he's a Steven Hawking Expy, and so every time he transforms he falls over and left naked until he shrinks back down. | |

A side-effect of Fauna's abilities in DC Nation. In human form? Technical Pacifist (downgraded a bit from Actual Pacifist) Granola Girl or New-Age Retro Hippie, and more of a support staff than a combatant. Push her past the limit, though... | |

Sonic Boom: Subverted in "Don't Make Me Angry". The actual trope appears in a comic book in-universe and Dr. Eggman tries to invoke it. After blasting himself with radioactive waves, when Eggman gets angry he does transform... into a tiny hyperactive purple creature. | |

Thousand Shinji: When Asuka gets mad she transforms into a superpowerful, demonic-looking berserker: her body becomes bigger and incredibly athletic and muscular (while not sacrificing a single drop of feminity), her blue eyes become dark-indigo, her hair's colour becomes brass bronze and her skin's blood-red, and huge ram horns sprout from the sides of her head. When she dons that shape she becomes incredibly strong, fast, agile and nearly invulnerable. | |

In Ushio and Tora, Nagare Akiba, during his Duel to the Death with Tora is revealed to have mastered a secret dharmic technique (in addition to the many Holy Hand Grenade attacks) which makes his muscles grow considerably to the point of ripping his shirt and leather jacket to shreds. In this form, he's furious and strong enough to injure Youkai barehanded. He trades the "color-changing skin" thing for a creepy Nightmare Face reeking bloodlust and rage. | |

She-Hulk (AKA Jennifer Walters), at first. In fact, she has it worse than her cousin, Bruce. While Bruce can, on occasion, notice his emotions are running too high and get them under control before transforming, Jennifer, by contrast, cannot calm down or stop the transformation. Once her emotions run too high, it is like a ticking time-bomb. All she can do is try to get to an isolated spot to transform. Fortunately for her, she later gains control of her transformations entirely. | |

Going "full-on zombie mode" in iZombie is usually triggered either by immediate danger or hunger for brains. The zombie's eyes go black, and he or she attacks with inhuman strength and ferocity.

Demons from Slightly Damned have this as a race ability, in extreme stress, anger, injury or if they know death is certain willingly, they transform into larger more monstrous versions of their normal selvesexample Buwaro goes from a bipedal human-sized teenager to a sabertoothed quadruped with a burning tail. and get a massive boost to their physical and magical capabilities but lose all self-preservation and will mindlessly slaughter any living thing they see (including friends and family) or mutilate themselves if there is nothing to kill. Their body is also pushed to its absolute limit and they eventually die of exhaustion although it is possible to save them by either rendering them unconscious (easier said than done given how tough they are normally) or by using an angel star pendant with the holy protective spell removed. | |

And their predecessors in the Old World of Darkness can also frenzy in many of the same situations. One possible flaw in Werewolf: the Apocalypse can invert it — it designates one of the werewolf's other four forms as the form transformed into. The most severe version of it turns the raging werewolf into their human form — not so bad (comparatively) if you're losing your temper at the bar, but if you're surrounded by fomori and Black Spiral Dancers and need to fight your way out? Good luck. | |

This is basically how the Unicorn of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn enters its Gundam mode: by reacting to an extreme state of emotion in its pilot and entering "Destroy Mode." This results in its joints opening up, revealing a glowing red psycoframe, increasing its power massively, and splitting its "horn" into the characteristic Gundam V-fin. Learning how to control it (instead of just blasting every enemy to smithereens) is a big problem for Banagher. (Riddhe, by contrast, embraces the idea of going uncontrollably berserk when he hops into its Banshee counterpart.) | |

Sonic the Comic has Sonic transform into Super Sonic when angered or stressed. While Super Sonic was the same size as Sonic, he fits the rest of the description. However, unlike most examples of this trope, Super Sonic could not be controlled and was dangerous for virtually everyone — even Sonic's friends weren't safe. | |

In the Pony POV Series, Dark World Arc, Angry Pie (the corrupted Pinkie Pie) has the Element of Rage and gets this power from it, making her stronger the angrier she gets. Which is an easy thing to do. She kept the power after her Heel–Face Turn until her death, at which point Rarity absorbs her Element and gains it. According to Loose Canon, a resurrected Gilda is the next Bearer of the Element after Rarity retires, and gains this ability. | |

Tony Tony Chopper from One Piece turns into a giant muscular, shaggy furred, monstrous version of himself dubbed "Monster Point" when he eats three Rumble Balls under less than six hours. In this form, he goes berserk with rage and attacks anyone nearby, so he only uses this as a last resort, and after the transformation is reversed he is left with a lot of strain on his body. By the time of the Fishman Island Arc, he has learned to control himself while in this state (and is the only form he needs a Rumble Ball to turn into), but he can only hold this transformation for three minutes. | |

Damaging him will sever his limbs, one at a time, but after hitting him enough he then sheds his human disguise by hulking himself out into a massive red demonic monster, one reaching to the top of the screen. | |

In the original Fatal Fury, Tung Fu Rue will transform into a larger, more muscular version of himself after taking too much damage (although he will change back after taking more). Future games restricted this to the use of his super moves. More recent games that feature him reveal that he's not actually transforming at all, but that the muscular version of Tung is actually a Battle Aura of sorts. | |

Werewolf: The Forsaken: Death Rage, where a werewolf will automatically transform to his "war form" and go on an unstoppable rampage. It's either triggered through pain or anger (and depending on your Karma Meter, that anger can range from "one of your packmates just got killed" to "someone talked sass to you"). Similarly, vampires have Frenzy, which is triggered by stimuli such as anger, fear or hunger. And unlike in the above example, getting sassed at is a perfectly normal stimulus for Frenzy. There's a reason everyone stays polite at Elysium... And their predecessors in the Old World of Darkness can also frenzy in many of the same situations. One possible flaw in Werewolf: the Apocalypse can invert it — it designates one of the werewolf's other four forms as the form transformed into. The most severe version of it turns the raging werewolf into their human form — not so bad (comparatively) if you're losing your temper at the bar, but if you're surrounded by fomori and Black Spiral Dancers and need to fight your way out? Good luck. |

The writers of the live-action TV series officially called it "Hulking Out." In 2023, the Hulk was given an even more powerful form called "The Titan". Basically the answer to the question "What would happen if The Hulk hulked out?" |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "Secret of My Excess", Spike's draconic hoarding instincts go haywire, causing him to grow bigger, stronger, and greedier the more stuff he accumulates for his "hoard". King Sombra seemingly underwent this during his imprisonment in "The Crystal Empire". In "Power Ponies", when the cast gets sucked into a comic book, Fluttershy becomes Saddle Rager, who has this as her superpower. She's too bashful and soft-hearted to use it until she sees the Mane-iac swat an innocent bug. Such blatant animal cruelty causes Fluttershy to go berserk and smash up the villain's doomsday device. Lord Tirek grows bigger and stronger the more he uses his Mana Drain in "Twilight's Kingdom". |

Child of the Storm: Bruce Banner plays his usual role as the Hulk, though he's got it under fairly good control these days. Thor also slips into the Warrior's Madness, the equivalent of this in the Asgardian royal family, where even the Hulk can only barely restrain him when he's finally pushed too far in the sequel. Diana, meanwhile, has similar problems and snaps under the strain of being roasted alive in chapter 60. Another example (minus the physical growth part), is near the end of the first book and in the sequel, is Harry turning into the Phoenix — the first time after being killed, and promptly resurrected and possessed by the Phoenix Force, which goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge, the second after figuring out how to use the fragment of the Phoenix within, and finally snapping after a brutal Trauma Conga Line. Since this results in the Dark Phoenix, everyone is very eager for this never to happen ever again. |

Mark Ruffalo's version of The Hulk in The Avengers (2012) shows Banner's control is improved. He Hulks out twice: Once when in great pain, once again during the film's big battle, showing a measure of acceptance and control. In the latter scene, Banner strolls towards a massive Leviathan monster bearing down on the team. When Captain America tells him it is time to get angry and transform, he wryly admits that he's always angry and proceeds to Hulk-out, without breaking stride, before punching out the monster in one blow. Humorously defied in Avengers: Infinity War where despite Bruce pleading the Hulk to come out at the time when he should come, he outright refuses. |

Dragon Ball: Goku was subject to transforming into a giant ape-like creature with laser breath when gazing at a full moon. In Dragon Ball Z, Goku's son, Gohan had the same "issues", and utting off their Saiyan tails reversed the transformation. Vegeta, having had the proper training, was in full control of his Oozaru form. Going Super Saiyan is even closer to the trope; most Saiyans' first transformations come when they get really, really angry, and they really do get stronger the angrier they get. And when they combine anger with purpose... you're boned. Broly is probably the best example of this in the series. His transformation into the Legendary Super Saiyan literally has his skin exploding. Gohan as a Super Saiyan 2 in the Cell Saga is this as his rage makes him one of the most sadistic characters in the anime besides Broly and Kid Buu. Even Cell refers to him as a monster. Gohan is also very muscular for an 11-year-old. Gohan takes it a step further in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero when his rage triggers yet another transformation, this time into his "Beast" form, his strongest form to date. Dragon Ball Super has Kale, a Shrinking Violet Saiyan who goes from a normal-looking young girl to the female version of Broly. |

The boss of the Cybercity stage in Gaia Crusaders initially appears as a human punk clad in leather, who fights you with his trusty chain at the start of said stage. Once you defeat him, he flees before coming back at the end, where he suddenly gains muscles and triples in size (ripping his leather jacket to shreds in the process) to attack you. His skin and hair even turns green at that point. | |

In League of Legends, Gnar's gameplay revolves around this premise. His playstyle is based around his Rage bar (which fills as he deals damage and gets damaged), which will transform him from a cute, prehistoric yordle into a hulking beast known as Mega Gnar (for a small period of time). Mini Gnar is a fragile and nimble ranged champion, while his alter form, Mega Gnar, is bulkier (both in damage and defenses), slower and melee-based. Managing his Rage bar and mastering both forms are required to perform well with him. | |

South Park: Parodied in the episode "It's a Jersey Thing", when Kyle's "Jersey side" comes out. Only the "transformation" is him putting on hair gel and jewelry, ripping off his sleeves and writing a nickname on his shirt. Played straight in the episode "A Scause For Applause" when Jesus takes HGH at the end. The scene that follows that has to be seen to be believed. |

Werewolves in the Mercy Thompson series can transform involuntarily if they get angry enough. Being turned into a werewolf also has a side effect of giving the person serious anger issues unless they're a rare submissive or Omega. These are two of the primary reasons that newly turned werewolves have a lifespan of fewer than ten years. | |

In Kirby Star Allies, King Dedede's body grows to muscular proportions in his second phase, including a barrel chest and large burly arms which make him look similar to a gorilla (with his legs still small). The same thing happens to Parallel Dedede in the post-game. And funny enough, it's actually a reference to episode 93 of the anime, "Frog Wild". | |

The LEGO Movie: Unikitty is normally an adorable, bubbly pink kitty. Once she loses control of her anger, she turns red and goes absolutely berserk. The sequel has Ultrakatty, a huge, red cat that Unikitty can become via getting really mad. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: While werewolves usually transform the day before, of, and after the full moon, when Oz learns to control the transformations he is then subject to involuntary shapeshifting when he feels strong emotions (like jealousy over Tara's relationship with Willow). Also, in the episode "Beauty and the Beasts", Pete's constant use of his formula has made him transform whenever he goes angry. |

Spear the caveman from Primal (2019) undergoes this when he drinks a black liquid that had been used to make a gorilla-man bigger and stronger. Spear becomes a giant, monstrous version of himself who tears his opponents apart with ease. | |

Benjy from Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues becomes a Monstrous Humanoid as a result of the Mass Super-Empowering Event. If he's put in danger, or experiences some other intense emotion, then he can transform into an even bigger monster who rages mindlessly until he calms down. | |

Unleashing of a Dark Night: The Werewolves' Rage Form, only acquired through copious amounts of anger. Tomoya the Volt going into Rage Form involves muscle growth to a behemoth double her original size when she gets angry enough. As of Chapter 43, however, she gains a new form double that size in height. The author's note at the end of that chapter reveals that there's an even larger form double the size of that form that would come later. | |

Similarly, vampires have Frenzy, which is triggered by stimuli such as anger, fear or hunger. And unlike in the above example, getting sassed at is a perfectly normal stimulus for Frenzy. There's a reason everyone stays polite at Elysium... | |
