Line 36:
** She also starts her spells with "Lyrical Magical!" (hence the title). Or at least she's ''supposed'' to... you could probably count on your hands the number of times she actually does so.
** She does do the full speech again for the final battle of season 1, just to up the drama.
** In the Japanese version, season one, her activation phrase is "Raging Heart, onegai", meaning that please really is the "magic word" (onegai means please).
* ''[[Getter Robo]]'', the majordomo of piloted [[Super Robot]] anime, used the phrase "Change, Getter X", where X was the number/name of the form to be assumed. The actual change was just assembling the [[Combining Mecha|combiner team]] in a new order. Later on in the series the phrase "Open Get" was used to disconnect the component vehicles.
** ''[[Martian Successor Nadesico|Martian Successor Nadesico's]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Show Within a Show]] [[Gekiganger 3]], based heavily on Getter Robo and other shows of its type, uses "Let's Gekiga In!" (based on ''[[Voltes V]]'''s "Let's Volt In") for all its combination sequences, and "Gekiga Out" to disconnect the vehicles.
* Each of the Sailor Senshi in ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' went through several different activation phrases over the course of the series, on the order of one or so a season, as they improved their powers and combat ability. The general formula was "[Planet Name] [Something] Power, Make Up!" The dub dropped the "Make Up" bit. The Dub also mucks around with the names themselves (despite originally being in English) sometimes resulting in made up stuff like "Moon Cosmic Dream Action". One really bad time had the Girls calling the first part of the phrase solo, then all at once calling "Make-Up!" The dub, due to the sheer omission of "Make-Up" resulting in it ending up as "Mars Star Power, Planet Power!"
** The ''[http://www.thekeep.org/~rpm/vertigo/sailor-hellblazer/ Sailor Hellblazer]'' [[Crossover]] [[Fanfic]] spoofs this when John Constantine accidentally sets his Transformation phrase as "bloody friggin' hell."
Line 117:
* In ''[[Jewelpet]] Twinkle'' the girls transform with 'Twinkle Twinkle Magical Charm Winkle Winkle Jewel Flash' while boys transform with 'Grilla Grilla Magical Charm Winkle Winkle Jewel Flash'. They also begin each spell with Twinkle Twinkle or Grilla Grilla respectively. In a later episode the fact the boys and girls transformation and magical phrases are different becomes a plot point.
* ''[[Tekkaman Blade]]'' has "Tek Setter!".
