What's the most stylish way to end a Transformation Sequence, a shapeshift, or a mode change? For some heroes, it's simply to shout the name of their new form right as the Stock Footage ends. Very much standard operation procedure for Humongous Mecha of the transforming or combining variety, Magical Girls with long, sparkly transformations, and any Tokusatsu hero worth their salt. Alternatively, the name of the form can be the activation word for the transformation, or at least part of it. Again, Super Robots do this often, simply because it's easy to Hand Wave or at least poke fun at it, and because it's style. For another variation, the hero himself needn't announce his form change, but his commander, his spotter, or a piece of machinery can do it for him. You may notice that this trope springs up the most in Merchandise-Driven shows, or programs that just generally have an associated toyline; this isn't an accident. After all, what better way to get young kids to remember what toys to ask their parents for other than having the show's characters outright shout it at them? Compare Calling Your Attacks, By the Power of Grayskull!, Invocation and In the Name of the Moon. May be part of Transformation Sequence, Shapeshifting and/or Super Mode. In some cases, comes with a side of Hot Blood. |

Zigzagged in Sleepless Domain: some of the magical girls will do so, particularly if they're introducing their magical girl identity to someone, while others don't. The first chapter actually has an inversion: Team Alchemical shouted their magical girl names as they prepared to transform, then said their real names after transforming. Note: they don't need to call their magical girl names to transform, as Undine's demonstrated, they just...chose to. The real reason, of course, was to introduce the audience to the decoy, except for Undine, protagonists. | |

Digimon: Whenever any of the Mons change form, they say "[Old form] digivolve to... [New form]!", or in the Japanese original, "[Old form], evolve! [New form]!" That and Calling Your Attacks are done 99.9% of the time, but omitted just often enough that it's not certain it's 100% necessary. For example, Angemon opted not to call out the name of his Hand Of Fate attack when he first used it. Armor Digimon (with the exception of Magnamon and Rapidmon) all declare their special nicknames along with their own names upon digivolution i.e. "Flamedramon, the Fire of Courage", "Halsemon, the Wings of Love". |

Bleach: A zanpakutou releases into shikai as a result of the shinigami calling out a release activation phrase that ends with the announcement of the zanpakutou's true name, at which point the zanpakutou transforms into its true form. When a zanpakutou releases into bankai, the shinigami simply announces "Bankai" and then enters the Transformation Sequence. Once the transformation has ended, the shinigami concludes with the zanpakutou's new name which sums up the nature their weapon (and any changes that have occurred to the shinigami's own appearance) has revealed as a result of entering bankai. Shinigami who have achieved bankai are also able to activate their shikai silently (but rarely do). With bankai, silent activation seems to be impossible, but announcing the name of the transformed zanpakutou is entirely optional. Arrancar have their own zanpakutou and releases, which operate in the same manner as a shinigami's shikai. Despite their zanpakutou not being empathic weapons like those of shinigami. |

Mega Man Battle Network 5: Twin Leaders for the Nintendo DS has MegaMan doing this with Soul Unisons, similar to the anime. The Japanese version of Star Force 2, which introduced voice acting to that series, has Subaru (Geo) invoking the names for all of his Tribe Ons, Double Tribes, and Tribe King (combining all three possible forms). For the alternative Burai (Rogue) forms, he says instead, "I'm... the only one I can trust." The same applies for Multi- and Finalized Noise Forms in the English and Japanese versions of Star Force 3. |

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann "From now on, this mech's name is... GURREN-LAGANN!" The first time for each new robot, the present Hot Blooded hero would name it. The pilots of every iteration of the mech tend to give a Rousing Speech whenever the thing gets bigger... and it's usually accompanied by explosions. Viral (Gurren Lagann), the orbital Mugann fleet (Arc Gurren Lagann), the face of that weird battleship thing (Super Galactic Gurren Lagann), and then a galaxy (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.) "TENGEN TOPPA!!! GURREN LAGANN!!! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE!?!?!?!?" |

Power Rangers doesn't have them say the same thing every time unless they're sticking very close to Sentai, but the formation of a Megazord calls for something, even if it's just "Power up!" or "Let's do it!" Often, it's the name of the formation (especially in series with numerous formations, in which case the Rangers have to help the audience keep it straight. "Predazord: Blue Moon!" "Isis Megazord: Predator Mode!") Though they have been known to mess this up: The second season of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers kept referring to Thunder Megazord as Mega Thunderzord. And they don't just do this for their mecha. In about half of the seasons, the team has a habit of doing individual Transformation Name Announcements and ending with a group In the Name of the Moon (and the other half still have at least one or two roll calls, even without the group ending). Wild Force embodies this trope with its call: "Guardians of the Earth, UNITED WE ROAR! Power Rangers Wild Force!" Since Sentai influence increased as of late, we get this a lot more. I give you: "Space Patrol Delta, defenders of Earth!"note Dekaranger had "S.P.D.! [each of them says their names]! Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger!" "We call forth the magic, Power Rangers Mystic Force!"note Magiranger went like "Overflowing courage becoming magic! Mahou Sentai Magiranger!" "Call to adventure, Power Rangers Operation Overdrive!"note Boukenger had "Endless adventure spirits! GoGo Sentai Boukenger!" "We summon the animal spirits from within! Power Rangers Jungle Fury!"note In Gekiranger, it was "Our burning power is a proof of justice! Juken Sentai Gekiranger!" "Rangers together! Samurai forever!"note Samurai Sentai Shinkenger used "Shinkenger, going forth!" "Earth's defenders, never surrender! Power Rangers Megaforce!"note Protecting the Earth is an angel's duty! Tensou Sentai Goseiger! "Dinosaur might, ready to fight! Power Rangers Dino Charge!"note The strongest braves in history! Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger! "Ninja Rangers, fear no danger! Power Rangers Ninja Steel!"note We may be shinobi, but we do not hide! Shuriken Sentai Ninninger! Of course, in Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, the Rangers would often pose beneath the Power Coin symbols after morphing and yell "Power Rangers!" Back when the original Rangers were the only Rangers, there was no need to differentiate. Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder didn't have one for the whole teams, but it did have each Ranger yelling "Power of *element here!*" or "*Dinosaur here* Power!" after the morph stock footage ended. This is the sort of bit of Ranger ceremony that's different from season to season—which shouted phrases are for coolness' sake and which are necessary to activate gear, and whether the just-because yells come before or while posing after. |

Though Super Robot Wars includes practically every Humongous Mecha example above, the Original Generation series does surprisingly little of this despite the large number of characters. It's all good, though, since the one character who does this often is Fighter Roar from Banpresto's Great Battle series. It's even part of his name. Sanger also gets an epic yet delayed one that comes with its own title card when Dygenguard finally becomes combat-ready. It was absurd enough that the villain even broke the fourth wall to call him out on it, which happened again in the anime adaptation of the scene. It becomes slightly more common in later games as attack animations become more complex and can sometimes include mid-battle combinations, such as Granteed Dracodeus. |

Happens in Gunbuster episode 5 after the combination sequence. "GUN...BUS...TEEERRRR!" And not to forget Diebuster, for both Buster Machine Number Seven and Diebuster itself. Number Seven's is particularly long, as it gives it's weapons class and attached unit. |

In the case of Getter Robo though, this is what they do at the start of the transformation, justifying it. They're combining at very high speeds, so they're likely to crash and burn if they don't know exactly which form they're supposed to be combining into, a lesson more than a few Getter Test Pilots learned fatally. | |

The Japanese version of Star Force 2, which introduced voice acting to that series, has Subaru (Geo) invoking the names for all of his Tribe Ons, Double Tribes, and Tribe King (combining all three possible forms). For the alternative Burai (Rogue) forms, he says instead, "I'm... the only one I can trust." The same applies for Multi- and Finalized Noise Forms in the English and Japanese versions of Star Force 3. | |

Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder didn't have one for the whole teams, but it did have each Ranger yelling "Power of *element here!*" or "*Dinosaur here* Power!" after the morph stock footage ended. This is the sort of bit of Ranger ceremony that's different from season to season—which shouted phrases are for coolness' sake and which are necessary to activate gear, and whether the just-because yells come before or while posing after. | |

In Bladedance of Elementalers, an elementalist must say the name of her spirit for it to transform from its weapon form to its spirit form. Exceptions apply to extremely powerful spirits, such as Est and Restia, who can transform at will. Claire's fire cat spirit Scarlet has a 3rd form, Ortlinde, in which she turns into a Cat Girl wearing a dress clad in flames; it can only happen if her name is called out by Claire. First happens in Volume 10. |

W.I.T.C.H.: The girls' don't always do this, but the first transformations done in any given episode will finish with each girl calling out the name of the element they use ("Water!", "Fire!", "Earth!", "Air!"). Will is the sole exception to this; initially, she just pants from exertion, as she's the one that has to trigger everyone else's transformations in addition to her own. Once she gets used that, she starts saying "The Heart!", which gets switched out for "Quintessence!" once she finally gets her own unique power. | |

Robot Romance Trilogy: The pilots of Combattler V, Voltes V and Daimos always scream the name of their machines upon combination / transformation. In Super Robot Wars Advance, this gets spoofed by Gai Daigoji (if he survives), whereas after Kazuya roars Daimos' name, Gai yells out "AESTEEE!!! VALIIIISSS!!!", much to Akito's confusion. Naturally, since Gai knows about it, you'd better believe Gekiganger 3 has an example. In this case, it happens in The Movie when Ken brings out the Gekiganger V- he does some poses and shouts "GEKIGANGAAAA... V!" in a similar fashion to Combattler V. |

Nearly every Super Sentai series makes regular use of a "roll call" where the heroes shout first their names, then the name of the team in unison. Later shows expanded this into a full In the Name of the Moon, but their names are still part of it. Some older shows also had the heroes simply say their names as their activation phrase. It's also a Super Sentai tradition for the heroes to announce the names of their mecha, both while summoning/combining it and right after it's been summoned/combined, often with a couple of words added to it. A few recent examples: Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: "Build up! Dekaranger Robo!" Mahou Sentai Magiranger: "MagiKing, Number One!" GoGo Sentai Boukenger: "Daibouken, Combination Complete! First Gear In!"note There's also "Top gear, in!" and "over top gear, in!" and others for other formations Juken Sentai Gekiranger: "GekiTouja, Burning Up!" Engine Sentai Go-onger: "Engine-O, Tune-Up! Go-On!" Samurai Sentai Shinkenger: "Shinken-O, United under Providence!" Tensou Sentai Goseiger: "Gosei Great, advent!" Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: "Complete, GokaiOh!"

Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! has "The [insert adjective] Prince, Battle Lover [insert name]!" The boys even lampshade the pointlessness of the trope in episode 5. According to the Mentor Mascot it's about "feeling and etiquette". | |

In Super Robot Wars Advance, this gets spoofed by Gai Daigoji (if he survives), whereas after Kazuya roars Daimos' name, Gai yells out "AESTEEE!!! VALIIIISSS!!!", much to Akito's confusion. Naturally, since Gai knows about it, you'd better believe Gekiganger 3 has an example. In this case, it happens in The Movie when Ken brings out the Gekiganger V- he does some poses and shouts "GEKIGANGAAAA... V!" in a similar fashion to Combattler V. |

In the first Sailor Moon anime, all of the Inner Senshi and Sailor Pluto have their own In the Name of the Moon speech that announces their form, and Sailors Uranus and Neptune share one. You generally only hear the Inner Senshi other than Sailor Moon delivering it during their Once a Season focus episode. Sailor Moon Crystal does this with all the Inner Guardians. |
